Don't forget that Lee Harvey oswald was a professed Marxist, and spoke Russian when he could, and addressed fellow soldiers as "comrade" while he was a Marine and during the 50s. Not only was his behavior tolerated during one of the most virulent anti-Communist decades in this Nation's history, but he received a hardship discharge. So, it is not hard to believe that Hasan's behavior was tolerated.
