总统唐纳德·特朗普据称最初并不知道被定罪的福特胡德大规模枪击案凶手尼达尔·哈桑因腰部以下瘫痪而使用轮椅，就在其政府推动通过实况直播其枪决处决之际。
President Donald Trump reportedly did not initially know convicted Fort Hood mass shooter Nidal Hasan was paralyzed from the waist down as his administration moved toward livestreaming his execution by firing squad.
特朗普仅在国防部长皮特·赫格塞斯上周公开宣布12月3日的处决将向公众开放直播后才得知哈桑使用轮椅，两位熟悉讨论情况的消息人士周三向CNN透露了这一信息。
Trump only learned that Hasan uses a wheelchair after Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth publicly announced last week that the Dec. 3 execution would be made available for people to watch, two sources familiar with the discussions told CNN on Wednesday.
哈桑在2009年福特胡德袭击事件中被执法人员击中，导致腰部以下瘫痪。他后来被判定犯有杀害13人并导致数十人受伤的罪行。
Hasan was shot by law enforcement during his 2009 attack at Fort Hood, leaving him paralyzed. He was later convicted of killing 13 people and wounding dozens more.
据称这一细节让总统对直播处决的前景失去兴趣，因为他在权衡是否推行该想法。
The detail reportedly made the prospect of broadcasting the execution unappealing to the president, as he weighed whether to go ahead with the idea.
该提议引得两党成员以及一些哈桑受害者的亲属和军方人士的批评。
The proposal has drawn criticism from members of both parties as well as some relatives of Hasan’s victims and military figures.
特朗普此前曾表示支持处决哈桑，并在本月早些时候亲自批准了他的死刑判决。然而，据称他并不知道赫格塞斯计划宣布公开直播，随后开始就此事咨询顾问和盟友的意见。
Trump had said he supports executing Hasan and personally approved his death sentence earlier this month, however, the president was reportedly unaware that Hegseth planned to announce a public broadcast and subsequently began polling advisers and allies over whether it should go ahead.
一位消息人士告诉CNN，特朗普对电视画面的敏感度正在影响他的 deliberations（考虑）。
One source told CNN that Trump’s sensitivity to television imagery was factoring into his deliberations.
其他政府官员和国会议员则担心，展示坐轮椅的哈桑被枪决队处决的视频可能被恐怖组织和外国对手利用，将其塑造成烈士。
Other administration officials and congress members raised concerns that video of a wheelchair-bound Hasan being executed by firing squad could be seized upon by terrorist groups and foreign adversaries and used to portray him as a martyr.
据CNN报道，五角大楼本身也在重新考虑是否应全程直播处决。讨论中的一个方案是允许直播开始，但在枪决队开火前切断画面。遇难者家属也反对直播哈桑处决的想法。
The Pentagon itself is now reconsidering whether to show the entire execution, according to CNN. One option under discussion would allow a broadcast to begin but cut away before the firing squad opens fire. Family members of those killed have also objected to the idea of livestreaming Hasan’s execution.
福特胡德枪击案受害者迈克尔·卡希尔的女儿基莉·卡希尔·瓦纳克称直播这一想法是“你能做的最糟糕的事情”。
Keely Cahill Vanacker, the daughter of Fort Hood shooting victim Michael Cahill, called the livestream idea “the worst thing you can do.”
