International media outlets, including France 24, have labeled the planned live-streamed execution of Nidal Hassan as "childish" and "disgusting." Legal experts note that while there are international treaties banning public executions, the United States is not a party to them in a way that carries the force of domestic law without an act of Congress. The discussion touches on Hassan's apparent desire for martyrdom and the mechanics of military firing squads.
