Once you begin piecing together what is going...

Editor's note: ...on inside the Pentagram with the all tattooed up Pete Hegseth with a Knights of Malta cross tattooed on his chest, you realize that if this execution is carried out, it is going to enrage the Muslim world especially when you consider this execution will be "livestreamed." Think about that for a moment. A livestreamed snuff film of a Muslim executed inside a nominally "Christian" nation viewed by millions of Muslims. Inciting a crusade against Islam using modern technology. If Nidal Malik Hasan is executed, especially if it is publicized or livestreamed, expect large numbers of Muslims, radical jihadists particularly those who already view him as a mujahid or martyr, to be enraged. Some will protest, some will issue threats, some will produce propaganda framing it as an attack on Islam. Get ready...it's like Salmon Rushdie writing his 1988 novel The Satanic Verses that saw riots, deaths, threats and fatwas being issued against Rushdie.

Pentagon says the firing squad execution of Fort Hood shooter Nidal Malik Hasan will be livestreamed

BY KONSTANTIN TOROPIN, ERIC TUCKER AND CLAUDIA LAUER | October 9, 2026

WASHINGTON (AP) — The firing squad execution of Fort Hood shooter Nidal Malik Hasan will be livestreamed, the Pentagon said Thursday, a stunning revelation about plans for the first military execution in more than 65 years after Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth had described it as being "public."

The Army announced this week that the execution would take place at Fort Hood on Dec. 3 after Hasan was convicted of killing 13 people and injuring 32 others in a shooting at the military base in 2009.

Hegseth, speaking to the conservative TV outlet Real America's Voice on Wednesday, said, "We'll make sure that people are able to watch it, that it's public." Officials in the Pentagon clarified Thursday that the execution would be livestreamed and that more details would follow.

The revelation from Hegseth about the public nature of the execution — let alone one as violent as a firing squad — has raised further questions about how the death penalty is carried out in the U.S., especially after the botched lethal injection of Christa Pike in Tennessee.

Experts offer mixed reactions on the plan

Hasan could choose to resist execution and file a habeas petition — a legal request to review the legality of a detention — in civilian court, which could significantly delay the execution, experts said.

"It frankly might outlast the current administration, and who knows if the next one will have the same penchant for executions," said Eugene R. Fidell, a visiting lecturer at Yale Law School specializing in military law.
