专家认为，任何试图挑战特朗普政府直播福特胡德基地枪手尼达尔·马利克·哈桑处决计划的努力，可能只能由哈桑本人来推动。
Experts believe any effort to challenge the Trump administration’s plan to livestream the execution of Fort Hood shooter Nidal Malik Hasan might rest solely with Hasan.
ED WHITE、CLAUDIA LAUER 专家称，任何试图挑战特朗普政府直播福特胡德基地枪手尼达尔·马利克·哈桑被枪决计划的努力，或许只能由这名因2009年在得克萨斯州军事基地杀害13人而被判处死刑的男子本人来推动。
ED WHITE, CLAUDIA LAUER Any effort to challenge the Trump administration’s plan to livestream the firing-squad execution of Fort Hood shooter Nidal Malik Hasan might rest solely with the man sentenced to death for killing 13 people at the Texas military base in 2009, experts say.
陆军关于执行罕见军事处决的规定中，并未提及将这一过程向全球直播。但这并不意味着除了哈桑之外，还有其他人可行的法律途径来反对这一做法。而哈桑本人也尚未表明，他是否会尝试阻止任何与他12月3日死刑判决相关的事情。
Broadcasting the event worldwide isn’t mentioned in the Army rules governing how rare military executions are carried out. But that doesn’t mean there is a viable legal path to oppose it by anyone besides Hasan. And he hasn’t signaled whether he will even try to stop anything related to his Dec. 3 death sentence.
五角大楼官员周四表示，哈桑将被执行枪决，并且整个过程将会被直播，更多细节随后会公布。一天前，国防部长皮特·赫格塞斯表示：“我们将确保人们能够观看这一过程，确保其公开透明。”维拉诺瓦大学法学院教授、军事司法专家布伦纳·菲塞尔表示：“除了哈桑本人，我不确定还有谁具备阻止直播的法律资格。”美国父母能否尝试阻止直播？
Officials at the Pentagon said Thursday that Hasan’s execution by a firing squad would be livestreamed and that more details would follow. A day earlier, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said, “We’ll make sure that people are able to watch it, that it’s public.”“Other than Hasan, I’m not sure anyone could” have legal standing to stop a livestream, said Brenner Fissell, a professor at Villanova University’s law school and an expert in military justice. Could US parents try to halt livestream?
不过，菲塞尔提出了一种新的可能性：那些不希望自己的孩子看到有人在互联网上被枪击的父母，无论是实时观看还是事后回看。陆军规定指出：“任何未满18岁的人均不得目睹”军事处决。
Fissell, however, tossed up a novel possibility: parents who don’t want their children to see a person blasted with bullets on the internet, either in real time or viewed later. Army regulations say, “No person under the age of 18 shall witness” a military execution.
“这一点写得非常明确，”菲塞尔说，“问题在于直播是否算作‘在场’……我认为这违反了该规定的精神。”他补充说，这些规定并非为了考虑处决现场之外的目击者而制定，更不用说通过直播观看的情况了。“这个问题实际上尚未得到充分探讨，”菲塞尔说。
“That’s explicit,” Fissell said. “It’s a question of whether a livestream counts as a presence. ... I think it violates the spirit of the regulation.”The regulations, he added, weren’t written to contemplate witnesses outside the actual site of an execution — and certainly not a livestream. “This actually has not been explored enough,” Fissell said.
耶鲁法学院军事法专业客座讲师尤金·R·菲德尔（Eugene R. Fidell）表示，他认为目前几乎没有法律途径可以挑战哈桑（Hasan）处决过程中大多数即将展开的细节，但他同意哈桑有权通过“人身保护令”（habeas corpus）向美国地方法院提出申诉。
Eugene R. Fidell, a visiting lecturer at Yale Law School specializing in military law, said he doesn’t see a lot of legal options to challenge most of the unfolding details of Hasan’s execution, though he agrees that Hasan would have standing to object with a petition, known as habeas corpus, in U.S. District Court.
菲德尔说：“以‘军队不能直播处决，因为某些家长可能无法阻止自己的孩子通过电脑观看’为由提起诉讼，在我看来可能性极低。或许比我更出色的法律专家能找到提出这种主张的方法，但我目前看不出可行之处。” 上一次使用枪决是在第二次世界大战期间。哈桑是一名军衔为少校的陆军精神科医生，他于2009年11月5日走进福特胡德基地（Fort Hood）的一栋医疗大楼，当时士兵们正在那里等待部署前的医疗许可。
“Arguing the Army can’t livestream it because some parent wouldn’t be able to stop their kid from watching it on the computer strikes me as a very unlikely piece of litigation,” Fidell said. “Better legal minds than me maybe can come up with a way to make that argument, but I don’t see it.”Last firing squad was in WWII Hasan, an Army psychiatrist who held the rank of major, walked into a medical building on Nov. 5, 2009, where soldiers at Fort Hood were waiting to receive medical clearance for deployment.
他高喊“安拉至大！”（阿拉伯语意为“真主至大！”），随即开枪射击，并朝向停车场逃窜的士兵们背后开火。
He shouted “Allahu akbar” — Arabic for “God is great!” — and opened fire and also shot at the backs of soldiers fleeing toward the parking lot.
哈桑称，此举是为了阻止他们前往阿富汗杀害自己的穆斯林同胞。由于被执法人员从背后击中，他腰部以下瘫痪，目前使用轮椅行动。
Hasan said it was an effort to stop them from going to Afghanistan and killing his fellow Muslims. He is paralyzed from the waist down after being shot in the back by law enforcement, and he now uses a wheelchair.
包括美国天主教主教在内的宗教人士以及一些官员批评了直播处决的决定。与此同时，副总统JD·范斯（JD Vance）告诉记者，他本人不会观看直播，并对是否真的会进行直播表示怀疑。
Clergy, including U.S. Catholic bishops, and some officials criticized the livestreaming announcement. Vice President JD Vance, meanwhile, told reporters that he wouldn’t watch it and expressed some doubt whether a livestream would happen.
总统唐纳德·特朗普批准了对哈桑的处决，这将是自第二次世界大战以来首次使用枪决的方式。上一次军事处决发生在1961年4月13日，当时陆军士兵约翰·贝内特（John Bennett）被处以绞刑。
President Donald Trump signed off on Hasan’s execution, which would be the first by a firing squad since World War II. The last military execution happened on April 13, 1961, when Army Pvt. John Bennett was killed by hanging.
菲德尔表示，2023年修订的陆军处决条例赋予了陆军部长选择处决方式的裁量权，部分目的是为在关塔那摩湾执行处决扫清障碍。菲德尔指出：“枪决显然是军队中一种合法的处决方式。”
A 2023 update to the Army regulation on executions gave the Secretary of the Army discretion on choosing a method, in part to ease hurdles to conducting executions at Guantanamo Bay, Fidell said. A firing squad is “clearly a legal method of execution in the military,” Fissell said.
