New information is surfacing about the man who killed former SEAL Chris Kyle. As the story goes, Chris Kyle took Marine Eddie Ray Routh, who was allegedly suffering from post traumatic stress disorder, to a Texas gun range where he turned the gun on Kyle.
But according to documents obtained through the Freedom of Information Act, Routh was never in combat, so it’s unlikely he was suffering from PTSD.
On their Facebook page, The Warfighter Foundation, wrote that “he NEVER SAW COMBAT or any aspect of traumatic events associated with a combat deployment (i.e. incoming mortar or rocket fire). He never left the base, EVER.”
Now people are taking a closer look at Routh, and it’s speculated that he might have been an Islamic sympathizer.
From Truth Revolt:
What is known. however, is that Routh, while never serving in combat, did work at the Bilad Airbase prison, guarding Muslim terrorists.
Walid Shoebat, a former radicalized Muslim terrorist and member of the PLO who has since converted to Christianity, believes that because of his past and credentials, he is confident in his deduction that Eddie Routh was in fact becoming a radical Muslim, although there is no proof yet of the conversion.
Shoebat brings as one proof a phone call Routh had with his father where he expressed sympathy for the detainees he was guarding.
“During a phone call with his father, Routh expressed sympathy for the detainees and discontent over how the US was conducting the war as well as his reluctance to engage in combat” and “While working as a guard at Balad Air Base, Routh laments his [Muslim] prisoners’ poor living conditions.”
He continues, “It is a known fact that Routh’s family contacted Kyle about their son’s diminishing mental health. Routh was admitted to inpatient psychiatric treatment prior to the events at Rough Creek Ranch, according to a report from the Daily Mail.
Routh had been taken to a mental hospital twice in the past five months and told authorities that he was suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder, police records show.”From Allen West:
The Warfighter Foundation is a non-profit organization that used the Freedom of Information act to learn more about Routh’s history. “[Routh] held a non-combat arms occupation of 2111 (Small Arms Repairer/ Technician or more commonly referred to as an Armorer),” the group reported.
“Balad Air Base had a Pizza Hut, 24 hour Burger King, Subway, Popeye’s, Baskin Robbins, movie theater, and even a miniature golf course. It even had a strictly enforced 10 mile per hour speed limit!”
Shoebat says, “Routh had been taken to a mental hospital twice in the past five months and told authorities that he was suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder, police records show.”
However, just saying you have PTSD is also different than actually being diagnosed.
While Routh may indeed suffered mental problems, PTSD may not have been one of them.
Nonetheless, the media will continue to focus on PTSD, which further casts doubt on our veterans and weakens our resolve for battle.
But the last thing the media would ever consider is that Routh could have been a convert to Islam. It’s an interesting and discomfiting theory.
And then there’s the matter of his beard with trimmed moustache. Of course we can’t engage in profiling, but…
