副总统JD Vance周五表示，他不确定是否会有尼达尔·哈桑12月被处决的现场直播，尽管国防部长皮特·赫格塞斯确认了该计划，并补充说，如果它是直播，“我不会看它。”
很抱歉，这段文本暂时无法提供译文执行这是自1961年以来军方的第一次，也是自1945年以来行刑队的第一次。
万斯后来补充说，他希望“人们不要忘记，这是一个残忍杀害了许多无辜者的家伙。”
“这就是说，我的意思是，如果这一切都是通过直播，我不会看，”他说。
虽然唐纳德·特朗普总统支持处决，但仍不清楚他是否同意黑格斯让公众观看的计划。
美国广播公司新闻频道（ABC News）的玛丽·布鲁斯（Mary Bruce）问特朗普是否希望直播哈桑的死刑，他回答说，“他们正在对此做出决定”，但他同意无论如何他都应该被杀。
“但他会被杀死，”特朗普继续说道。“他会的，通过行刑队。他杀死了13，14人，重伤20多人。他完全疯了。所以我真的不在乎他怎么走，只要他走。我认为对他来说，死刑是一种非常值得的方式。”
当被问及特朗普是否支持让公众观看处决的决定时，白宫向美国广播公司新闻部（ABC News）咨询了五角大楼。
五角大楼直播哈桑死刑的计划引起了共和党议员越来越多的担忧，许多人区分了处死哈桑和允许公众观看死刑的发生。
特朗普政府前高级官员乔·肯特（Joe Kent）今年3月因伊朗战争辞去了国家反恐中心主任的职务，他警告说，广播哈桑的死讯可能会成为恐怖组织的招募工具。
在一个社交媒体帖子中，肯特呼叫该计划“有失美国的尊严”，并补充说，“流他的处决不仅是我们道德上的一个污点-它也给了恐怖分子自由宣传，他们将用来激进化＆招募更多像哈桑一样的恐怖分子。＂
即将离任的共和党参议员托姆·蒂利斯谴责直播计划周四是＂恶心至极＂
“公开处决是像伊朗和阿富汗这样的暴虐独裁政权所做的事情。这不应该发生在美国，”蒂利斯说。
蒂利斯的投票帮助确保了赫格塞斯的确认，最近在他的新回忆录中，他将支持他担任国防部长描述为“我职业生涯中最大的遗憾”。
其他共和党人附和了他的反对意见，包括众议院军事委员会成员奥斯汀·斯科特众议员。
“我绝对支持死刑判决，但直播处决是圣战分子干的事。美国比那更好，”斯科特在一份声明中说声明在x上。
特朗普在周五的讲话中重申了他对行刑队处决哈桑的支持，但没有提到广播这件事。他将此次处决视为其政府施加更严厉刑事处罚的更广泛努力的一部分。
“你知道，今天，如果你在监狱里呆上两天——今天，你几乎可以做任何事情，什么也不会发生。但是我们正在改变，你看。通过解雇斯夸的死刑。．．．他应得的。打死打伤了很多很多人，一个疯子。”特朗普说，没有提到直播。
美国广播公司新闻撰稿人、前国土安全部官员约翰·科恩（John Cohen）表示，美国军方射杀一名前军人的画面“会让一些美国人感到恐惧，并被我们的对手所利用。”
“只要能对未来的袭击起到威慑作用——对大多数恐怖分子来说——殉难就是目标。恐怖分子和其他大规模伤亡袭击者计划并享受死亡的想法，如果它带来了对他们的事业或冤情的关注。科恩说：“因此，直播可能只能起到最小的威慑作用。
直播公告让一些军官大吃一惊
从19世纪开始，公开处决逐渐被一些国家宣布为非法，在许多发达国家，公开处决一直是禁忌。这在一些威权国家仍是惯例，包括朝鲜。据报道，2025年初，朝鲜两名核研究人员因未能达到研究预期而被公开处决。恐怖组织也经常使用公开处决作为恐吓手段。
据两名直接知情的官员说，周四宣布哈桑的死刑将被直播，这让一些参与准备工作的军队规划者感到意外。
据一位知情的美国官员说，使用行刑队的决定也出人意料。
至少从2月份开始，军队就一直在准备处决包括哈桑在内的四名死囚，但这些计划的核心是在印第安纳州特雷霍特的联邦监狱进行致命注射，根据美国广播公司新闻频道（ABC News）审查的概述这些计划的服务文件，司法部在特朗普的第一个任期内执行了一系列民事联邦处决。
一名官员描述说，军队规划者正在抓紧制定行刑队执行死刑的程序，这种方法自1945年以来就没有使用过。军队关于行刑队行刑的最后书面程序可以追溯到1959年，这让官员们决定如何调整几十年来对哈桑行刑的指导。
自20世纪80年代以来，致命注射一直是陆军唯一授权的处决方法，直到2023年的一项规则变化赋予陆军部长广泛的酌处权，以决定如何将死刑犯处死。
一名官员称，军队规划者的首要任务是保护被选中执行死刑的士兵的身份。目前还不清楚这些士兵是否会戴口罩，或者该服务可能会采取什么其他措施来隐藏他们的身份，特别是在直播期间。
很抱歉，这段文本暂时无法提供译文
目前还不清楚，包括YouTube、脸书和X在内的主要在线平台是否会直播行刑，或者允许在他们的平台上播放视频片段。ABC新闻已经联系了谷歌和Meta寻求回应，但是还没有得到回复。
五角大楼经常通过自己的网站和社交媒体账户广播其活动，但这些平台有管理图形暴力的规则。
Trump says ＇they＇re making a determination＇ on livestream of Hasan execution
Vice President JD Vance said Friday that he wasn＇t sure whether there would be a livestream of Nidal Hasan＇s December execution，despite Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth＇s confirmation of that plan， adding that if it were to be livestreamed， ＂I＇m not going to be watching it．＂
＂I don＇t know that＇s actually going to happen，＂ Vance said when asked about the livestream of the execution of Hasan -- the former Army major who killed 13 people and wounded 32 others in a 2009 shooting at Fort Hood， Texas -- an attack Hasan described as an act of jihad． Hisexecutionwould be the military＇s first since 1961 and its first by firing squad since 1945．
Vance later added that he hopes ＂people don＇t forget that this is a guy who brutally murdered a lot of innocent people．＂
＂Now that said， I mean， look， if it＇s all through livestream， I＇m not going to be watching it，＂ he said．
While President Donald Trump supports the execution， it＇s still not clear whether he agrees with Hegseth＇s plan to make it available to the public to watch．
Asked by ABC News＇ Mary Bruce if he wants Hasan＇s execution to be live-streamed， Trump replied， ＂They＇re making a determination about that，＂ but agreed either way he should be killed．
＂But he will be killed，＂ Trump continued． ＂He will be， through firing squad． He killed 13， 14 people， badly wounded 20 some-odd people． And he＇s totally nuts． So I really don＇t care how he goes as long as he goes． And I think that the death penalty is a very worthy way of going for him．＂
Asked whether Trump supports the decision to make the execution available for public viewing， the White House referred ABC News to the Pentagon．
The Pentagon＇s plan to livestream the execution of Hasan has drawn growing concerns among Republican lawmakers -- with many drawing a distinction between putting Hasan to death and allowing the public to watch it happen．
Joe Kent， a former senior Trump administration official who quit his post as director of the National Counterterrorism Center in March over the Iran war， warned that broadcasting Hasan＇s death could become a recruiting tool for terrorist groups．
In a social media post， Kentcalledthe plan ＂beneath the dignity＂ of the United States， adding that， ＂Streaming his execution is not just a stain on our morality -- it also gives the terrorists free propaganda that they will use to radicalize＆recruit more terrorists like Hassan．＂
Outgoing GOP Sen． Thom Tilliscondemned the livestream planThursday as ＂beyond disgusting．＂
＂Public executions are what oppressive dictatorships like Iran and Afghanistan do． It should not be happening in America，＂ Tillis said．
Tillis， whose vote helped secure Hegseth＇s confirmation， recently described supporting him for Defense secretary as the ＂biggest regret of my career＂ in his new memoir．
Other Republicans echoed his objections， including Rep． Austin Scott， a member of the House Armed Services Committee．
＂I absolutely support the sentence of death， but live-streaming executions is what jihadists do． America is better than that，＂ Scott said in astatementon X．
Trump reiterated his support for executing Hasan by firing squad during remarks on Friday， but made no mention of broadcasting it． He framed the execution as part of his administration＇s broader effort to impose harsher criminal penalties．
＂You know， today， if you get two days in jail -- today， you can do almost anything， nothing happens． But we＇re changing that， you see that． The death penalty through firing squa． ．．． and he deserves it． Killed and wounded many， many people， a maniac．＂ Trump said， without mentioning the livestream．
John Cohen， ABC News contributor and former Homeland Security official， said the visual of the U．S． military shooting a former member of the military ＂is a visual that will horrify some Americans and be exploited by our adversaries．＂
＂As far as it serving as a deterrent to future attack -- for most terrorist -- martyrdom is the objective． Terrorist and other mass casualty attackers plan to and relish the thought of dying if it brings attention to their cause or grievance． So there is likely minimal deterrence an achieved by live-streaming，＂ Cohen said．
Livestream announcement a surprise to some Army officials
Public executions were gradually outlawed by states beginning in the 19th century and have long been taboo across much of the developed world． They remain a practice in some authoritarian countries， including North Korea， where two nuclear researchers were reportedly executed publicly in early 2025 for failing to meet research expectations． Terrorist organizations also frequently use public executions as a means of intimidation．
Thursday＇s announcement that Hasan＇s execution would be livestreamed came as a surprise to some Army planners involved in the preparations， according to two officials with direct knowledge．
The decision to use a firing squad was also unexpected， according to a U．S． official familiar with the matter．
The Army had been preparing since at least February to potentially execute its four death row prisoners， including Hasan， but those plans centered on lethal injection at the federal prison in Terre Haute， Indiana， where the Justice Department carried out a series of civilian federal executions during Trump＇s first term， according to service documentation outlining the plans reviewed by ABC News．
Army planners are scrambling to develop procedures for carrying out an execution by firing squad， a method the service has not used since 1945， one official described． The Army＇s last written procedures for a firing squad execution date to 1959， leaving officials to determine how to adapt decades-old guidance for Hasan＇s execution．
Lethal injection had been the Army＇s only authorized method of execution since the 1980s， until a 2023 rule change gave the Army secretary broad discretion to determine how condemned prisoners would be put to death．
One priority for Army planners is protecting the identities of soldiers selected to carry out the execution， one official described． It remains unclear whether the soldiers would wear masks or what other measures the service might take to conceal their identities， particularly during a livestream．
The Army also has not publicly explained how it would handle a botched execution in which Hasan survives the initial volley． Procedures dating to 1959 call for the soldier commanding the firing squad to shoot the condemned prisoner in the head at point-blank range with a pistol if the initial shots fail to kill him．
It also remains unclear whether major online platforms， including YouTube， Facebook and X， would carry the execution livestream or allow clips on their platforms． ABC News has reached out to Google and Meta for a response， but has not yet heard back．
The Pentagon routinely broadcasts its events through its own websites and social media accounts， but the platforms have rules governing graphic violence．
