@brutamerica: The Pentagon plans to livestream the December 3 firing-squad execution of Nidal Hasan, the former Army psychiatrist convicted of killing 13 people and wounding 32 at Fort Hood in 2009. An anonymous Army officer told CNN that publicly executing Hasan, who uses a wheelchair, would undermine American values and cause lasting psychological harm to the troops involved. Critics, including Republican and Democratic lawmakers and Catholic leaders, say broadcasting the execution would turn the punishment into a spectacle and damage the country’s moral standing. Supporters of the plan, including Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, argue that making the execution public would demonstrate the serious consequences of such attacks. Details of the broadcast remain unresolved, and Vice President JD Vance has questioned whether it will ultimately happen.
