Questions. Always. Questions.

Aaron Alexis, the 34 year old shooter in the Washington Naval Yard, seems to be already having conflicting items and events swirling about him and his actions. How much is truth? And how much is fog? There seem to be contradictions in the answers to questions in the first hours after and the answers many hours later. Many more questions need answers, the intriguing question being, will they be answered at all?

  • If he had so many bad incidents while in the Navy that led to his discharge, how did he get Secret level security clearance?
  • How did he get hired as an 'expert' by Hewlett Packard after basically being kicked out of the Navy?
  • What work did he do for the Navy in Japan? Refreshing computer systems? And what was the pay dispute?
  • All his friends and acquaintances tell of him being a gentle man, studying Buddhism, meditating, and yet the profile being built of him after the event is one of paranoia and anger issues?
  • He checked into a Rhode Island hotel and called police about being followed or watched? And complained about hearing voices? What was he doing there?
  • If he was so broke, how did he afford the rifle? And/or a shotgun? And renting a car? And traveling to Thailand?
  • And how long had he owned that rifle? He evidently had time to carve whole phrases into the stock! Including ELF, generally meaning 'Extremely Low Frequency,' for you HAARP people. 
  • Who was paying for his hotel room? Who was the person who met him there prior to his starting work at the Naval Yard? He only worked there for a week, why did he suddenly snap now?
  • The Swat team of Special Agents from the ATF arrived quickly, the same one from the Boston bombing of the Tsarnaevs, a seven hour drive away,  apparently they are stationed in Washington. Why was it the same team that was in Boston at that other incident?
  • If Alexi was being treated for paranoia and suspected of mental issues, why weren't they available to a mental check for his job at Experts, the HP subsidiary?
  • Why wasn't his arrest record in Seattle and Fort Worth available to HP? And his Navy record considered for a security clearance. 
  • Was there another man involved who remains unidentified? The grey haired white man?
  • Where exactly did he live? They say he was formerly from Fort Worth but no indication of where his domicile was now?And he is said to have had several addresses in Fort Worth?
  • The first people interviewed describe Alexis of being a quiet gentle man, yet now reports say he was a hardcore drinker and spent hours playing 'violent shooting' video games? More conflicting info or implanted info?
  • A monk's assistant from the Buddhist Temple he often attended said he could have believed Alexis' would have committed suicide but not murder.
  • Others said that Alexi seemed like he had been in the military by the way he carried himself but never talked about violence or guns.
  • He is said to have often helped out others, not expecting anything in return. And worked in his friend's restaurant for no pay. Even communicated with diners in the Thai language.
  • His latest landlord said that he had never seen his tenant get angry about anything.
  • Did someone 'open doors' for Alexis to move easily through his motions on the weeks or months previous and on the day of the event? 
  • After leaving the Navy in January 2011, Alexis retained the clearance even with three arrests, a history of mental illness and a record of military misconduct.
  • USIS, the private company that performs 65% of all background checks, (and the same company that vetted Edward Snowden) failed to discover anything wrong with Aaron Alexis, "... What’s emerging is a pattern of failure on the part of this company, and a failure of this entire system, that risks nothing less than our national security and the lives of Americans,” Senator Claire McCaskill, a Missouri Democrat, said in a statement. She added that USIS is under criminal investigation.
  • USIS is now based in Providence, Rhode Island.
  • As information emerges, can we see that a troubled man seeking psychiatric help from VA agencies could in some way be manipulated psychologically? 
  • Is some shadowy agency building a convenient profile of disinformation now to make a credible case that he would shoot people? For what purpose?

Contradictions?

It's not unbelievable that a man could live such a paradox life, filled with contradictions and flurried directions of an unstable mind, but at such a terrible event his actions need a complete and thorough investigation. All the questions about Aaron Alexi need to be carefully considered, asked, and answered.

manipulated?

    Were Aaron Alexi's deathly last movements orchestrated for some secret purpose yet to be revealed? What will answers tell about the tragic events on September 16, 2013.
    Will there be answers?
    Or just more questions?
