五角大楼计划直播前陆军精神科医生尼达尔·哈桑的死刑执行1。哈桑曾在胡德堡杀害13人1。该计划一经公布,立即招致来自美国政治两派的激烈反对。
评论人士将公开处决与伊朗、阿富汗等国的做法进行比较1,质疑此举是中世纪野蛮行为的回归。民主党人表示这一计划令人不安,应立即撤销1。国防部长海格斯特为这一方案进行了辩护,主张"人们需要了解这些行为的严重后果"1。
美国自1936年以来没有进行过公开处决1,美国陆军自二战以来也未曾进行过行刑队处决1,这项计划如若实施,将打破长期以来的惯例。
The Pentagon has announced plans to livestream the execution of Nidal Hasan, a former Army psychiatrist who killed 13 people at Fort Hood, drawing fierce criticism from across the American political spectrum 1. Critics have compared the proposal to practices in authoritarian regimes such as Iran and Afghanistan, with commentators characterizing public executions as a medieval approach to capital punishment 1.
Defense Secretary Hagstrom has defended the plan, stating that "people need to understand the serious consequences of these actions" 1. However, Democrats have called the proposal deeply disturbing and have demanded its immediate withdrawal 1. The move marks a significant departure from recent American practice, as the United States has not conducted public executions since 1936, and the U.S. Army has not carried out firing squad executions since World War II 1.
