At a memorial service at the Texas Army post in Fort Hood where last week's shootings took place, President Obama said that the killer "will be met with justice -- in this world and the next." He said there is no faith that can justify such a crime.
At a memorial service at the Texas Army post in Fort Hood where last week's shootings took place, President Obama said that the killer "will be met with justice -- in this world and the next." He said there is no faith that can justify such a crime.
President Barack Obama was among the thousands Tuesday remembering the 13 men and women who died in the shooting at the U.S. Army post at Fort Hood, Texas.

At the nationally televised memorial service from the post, Obama said that America could not exist without brave men and women like the shooting rampage's victims. In his remarks, he singled out each of them.

He remembered the group as husbands and fathers, immigrants and scholars, optimists and veterans of the war in Iraq. He cited one woman who was pregnant when she was gunned down.

Obama said all deserve to be honored as heroes.

Obama blamed "twisted logic" for the killing of 13 men and women at Fort Hood, and says there is no faith that justifies acts he describes as "murderous and craven."

Some of the service men and women who were wounded in the attack did manage to attend, while the more seriously injured victims still in the hospital received a private visit from the president and first lady.

Maj. Nidal Hasan allegedly went on a shooting rampage at the Army post last Thursday. Soldiers reported that Hasan, who is Muslim, shouted the Arabic phrase for "God is Great" before opening fire.
