Public Execution?

The proposed execution of Fort Hood terrorist Nidal Hasan has sparked controversy over whether the military should carry out the sentence by firing squad and make it public.

Victor Davis Hanson revisits the 2009 massacre that killed 13 American soldiers, criticizing the Obama administration’s response, the military’s failure to act on warning signs, and the role of political correctness in the aftermath.

Hanson also takes aim at Hillary Clinton for calling the proposed execution barbaric, contrasting her outrage with her role in the U.S. intervention in Libya and her infamous reaction to Muammar Gaddafi’s brutal death.
