From Sam Keen's "Faces of the Enemy" (Keen's work on examine the psychology behind enmity and war and the ways in which people dehumanize enemies through propaganda and bigotry) ... On 12/24/1985 David Rice tied the family up, chloroformed them into unconsciousness, split their heads open with a steam iron and "stirred" their brains with a knife. Rice targeted the family because he was told they were communists (the husband of the family was civil rights attorney Charles Goldmark.)
I uploaded part one and two earlier this week.
Despite murdering 4 innocent people, Rice sees himself as a good person who 'fights to keep people alive' (if Hasan really believes that suicide bombers are saving lives as he was said to have believed then in some way Hasan could have view his act as the same way as a suicide bomber or as Rice states)
Also, Rice was deeply involved in right wing groups that used the rhetoric of war and Rice consistently felt threaten and under seige (Hasan was exposed to endless horror stories of war and Hasan was the victim of anti-Arab bias and felt threaten and under seige)
Keen confronts Rice about his conflicted feelings about getting to know Rice as a human being, but at the same thing appalled at Rice's actions and lack of remorse.
Rice, in the closest to remorse he has shown, admits it would have been better if they hadn't talk (so he can view his victims as abstract 'enemies' and not humans)
Keen quotes Confucius and says if you want to change society 'start calling things by their real name' (torture instead of enhanced interrogation)
