Reaction to the Ft. Hood solider killings is coming in from all over the world.

The Department of Defense released this video of soldiers being deployed to the scene of Thursday's shootings.

The death toll now stands at thirteen-people. At least 30-others were wounded.

The gunman, Major Nidal Malik Hasan, is still in the hospital. He's still unconscious and remains on a ventilator.

Locally, the Bay County Islamic Society is condemning the killings.

"Number one, it’s terrible. Number two, the attacker happened to be of Muslim faith. Number three, he's an M.D. I'm a doctor. He's a psychiatrist and he's supposed to talk to people with post traumatic stress disorder. And instead of helping people he killed people," Hashem Mubarak, of the Bay County Islamic Society said.

They are considering this to be a terrorist attack.

The BIS is at least saying this was a terrorist attack. Thats more than our politically correct president or most news agencies are willing to say.
