When will Nidal Malik Hasan finally be executed?

Stephen Green brings up the repugnant case of Nidal Malik Hasan, the Islamic US Army major of "palestinian" background who committed mass murder at Fort Hood 17 years ago, and to date hasn't been given the death sentence for the tragedies he caused:

It seems impossible that it's been almost exactly 17 years since U.S. Army Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan shouted "Allahu Akbar!" and opened fire on soldiers at the Fort Hood Soldier Readiness Center in Killeen, Texas. By the time Department of the Army police officer Kimberly D. Munley and Sgt. Mark Todd exchanged gunshots with Hasan and disabled him; he had killed 14 people — including an unborn baby — and wounded 32 more.

Before going down, Hasan shot Munley three times, in the right hand, left thigh, and left knee. She survived, but never fully recovered from her injuries. Hasan's attack lasted about 10 minutes because of all the many absurdities about modern life; soldiers are generally not allowed to carry firearms on base.

It is the height of outrageous absurdity that the Obama administration described the jihadi terrorist attack as an act of mere "workplace violence." Hasan, the son of naturalized Palestinian immigrants, was reportedly radicalized online by Imam Anwar al-Awlaki — under the watchful eye of the FBI. The Bureau cleared him shortly before what a Senate report called "the worst terrorist attack on U.S. soil since Sept. 11, 2001."

Obama's Army Chief of Staff Gen. George W. Casey Jr. said, "I'm concerned that this increased speculation could cause a backlash against some of our Muslim soldiers... Our diversity, not only in our Army, but in our country, is a strength. And as horrific as this tragedy was, if our diversity becomes a casualty, I think that's worse."

Fourteen dead in an Islamic terror attack, and all Casey could do was praise our precious diversity. [...]

The Supreme Court removed the last remaining legal obstacle to Hasan's long-awaited execution in October 2024 — two years ago — when the court declined to hear his appeal. That was under Presidentish Joe Biden.

It should come as no surprise that Biden did not take the final executive step. Under U.S. military law (UCMJ), a death sentence cannot be carried out until the President personally approves it — and President Donald Trump has yet to do so.

We have to hope Trump will be fully willing to greenlight the end of Hasan by the end of the year, because this travesty of justice has gone on far too long, and Obama definitely compounded much of the damage by minimizing the issues involved, as did Casey. I wonder what the pro-PLO/Hamas crowd thinks of Hasan? It's chilling to think of how entirely possible it is that they consider Hasan an "icon and idol" to their repulsive cause.
