There are new details coming in from Fort Hood, but the specifics of Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan’s rampage are different depending on where you get the information.

Some networks are reporting that the shooter had been making comments and internet posts that would align him with the radical Muslim camp, while others are sticking with the “crazed lone gunman” theory.

Initially it was reported that the gunman had been killed.  We now know that, while he was shot several times, the wounds were not fatal.   At the moment, he’s being kept alive on a ventilator.

According to eyewitnesses, as he opened fire the shooter was screaming “Allahu Akbar!” – an Arabic phrase meaning “God is Great!”

Beyond that, details are still sketchy, and the investigation continues.
