Trump Consents to Palestinian American Execution
U.S. President Donald Trump has approved the execution by firing squad of Nidal Hassan, the perpetrator of the Fort Hood base massacre in 2009 which resulted in the deaths of 13 people. This marks the first time in 65 years that this method has been used in the United States. The Secretary of Defense has recommended carrying out the execution, with the Secretary of the Army determining the date and location. Nidal Hassan, who was sentenced to death in 2013, is currently suffering from partial paralysis following a bleeding injury and is detained in a military prison in Kansas. This decision comes amid an ongoing debate over the death penalty, even though the five U.S. states that allow execution by firing squad have not used this method for decades.
