WASHINGTON — President Trump on Friday backed the Department of War’s decision to execute the Fort Hood mass shooter by firing squad, insisting that the Army major who turned his handgun on fellow soldiers nearly 20 years ago “deserves it.”“We’re giving a man the death penalty who killed 14 soldiers a couple of years ago,” the president said Friday after the Pentagon made waves by announcing the execution would be livestreamed to the public.
“通过枪决来执行死刑——他确实罪有应得。他杀害并伤害了大量无辜民众,简直是个疯子。”2009年11月5日,尼达尔·马利克·哈桑在德克萨斯州胡德堡的一栋医疗大楼内开枪行凶。当时他正担任陆军精神科医生,此次袭击导致13人死亡、32人受伤。
“Death penalty through firing squad — and, uh, and he deserves it. Killed and wounded many, many people. Maniac.”Nidal Malik Hasan opened fire at Fort Hood, Texas, on Nov. 5, 2009, inside a medical building where he was serving as an Army psychiatrist, killing 13 people and wounding 32 others.
哈桑用带有激光瞄准器的手枪向战友射击时高喊“真主至大”,随后供认自己这么做是为了阻止美军前往阿富汗、杀害他的穆斯林同胞。
Hasan shouted “Allahu Akbar,” Arabic for “God is great,” as he fired at his fellow troops with a laser-sighted handgun, later confessing that the shooting was meant to stop US forces from going to Afghanistan and killing his fellow Muslims.
他被判犯有13项蓄意谋杀罪及32项蓄意谋杀未遂罪,2013年的审判后被判处死刑。
He was convicted of 13 counts of premeditated murder and 32 counts of attempted premeditated murder, and he was sentenced to death following a 2013 trial.
五角大楼官员证实,哈桑的枪决将于12月3日在案发地胡德堡执行。
Pentagon officials have confirmed that Hasan’s execution by firing squad will take place Dec. 3 at Fort Hood, the scene of the crime.
赫格塞斯称:“我们会确保公众能够观看这一过程,因为这是公开处决。民众需要明白,犯下此类罪行必将付出沉重代价。”
“We’re gonna make sure that people are able to watch it, that it’s public, because people need to understand that there’s serious consequences for these types of things,” Hegseth said.
他补充道:“这名陆军少校背叛了自己的祖国,这个极端伊斯兰分子在胡德堡杀害了众多美国人。我们当然要在胡德堡执行死刑。”
“Army major betrays his country, radical Islamist kills a bunch of Americans at Fort Hood. Of course we’re doing it at Fort Hood,” he added.
上一次以枪决方式执行军事刑罚还是在第二次世界大战期间,部分共和党人对这一做法持保留态度。
The last military execution by firing squad occurred during World War II, and some Republicans have expressed discomfort with the idea.
“塞内卡曾警告说,罗马那些血腥的处决场面会腐蚀观看者的心灵。当一个文明培养出以处决作为娱乐的癖好时,这个文明便会逐渐衰败,”犹他州共和党参议员约翰·柯蒂斯在一份声明中说道。
“Seneca warned that Rome’s bloody spectacles corrupted the people who watched them. A civilization erodes when it cultivates an appetite for executions as a form of entertainment,” said Sen. John Curtis (R-Utah) in a statement.
“赫格斯塞斯部长计划对胡德堡军事基地的处决过程进行直播,这一做法很可能助长这种不良癖好,”柯蒂斯补充道。“受害者理应得到庄重肃穆的司法审判。将处决过程公之于众只会损害我们的道德形象,也起不到有效的威慑作用。我敦促他重新考虑这一计划。”
“Secretary Hegseth’s plan to livestream the Fort Hood execution risks feeding that appetite,” Curtis added. “The victims deserve justice administered with solemnity. Broadcasting a death diminishes us and is not an effective deterrent. I urge him to reconsider.”
前特朗普政府官员也纷纷发声。前国家反恐中心主任乔·肯特称此次处决计划是“我们道德水准的污点”。他进一步指出:“此举还会给恐怖分子提供宣传素材,他们会借此来煽动极端情绪并招募更多像哈桑那样的恐怖分子。”
Former Trump administration officials have also spoken out, with ex-National Counterterrorism Center Director Joe Kent calling the planned execution “a stain on our morality.”“[I]t also gives the terrorists free propaganda that they will use to radicalize & recruit more terrorists like Hassan [sic],” Kent said.
不过,曾在胡德堡枪击案中身中七枪却幸存下来的陆军中士阿隆佐·伦斯福德则表示,他期待着亲临现场观看哈桑的处决,只为“直视他的眼睛”。伦斯福德对BBC说道:“我会去现场观看。在行刑枪响之前,我希望他能直视我的眼睛,我也直视他的眼睛,让他明白:‘伙计,你失败了。我还活着。’”美国上一次对军人执行死刑是在1961年。当时,陆军列兵约翰·贝内特因在奥地利一处军事基地强奸并企图谋杀一名11岁女孩而被判有罪,随后被处以绞刑。
But an Army sergeant who survived the bloody massacre after being shot seven times has said he looks forward to attending Hasan’s execution to “look at him in his eyes.”“I’m gonna be there [to watch] and before they pull the trigger, I want him to look at me in my eyes and I look at him in his eyes, and I want him to know, ‘Dude you failed. I’m still here,’” Alonzo Lunsford told the BBC. The last execution of a US service member took place in 1961, when Army Pvt. John Bennett was hanged after being convicted of the rape and attempted murder of an 11-year-old girl at a base in Austria.
