Sean Parnell: Secretary of War Pete Hegseth has recommended
— and President Donald J. Trump has approved — death by U.S. Army firing squad for convicted terrorist Nidal Malik Hasan, the jihadist who opened fire on unarmed American soldiers at Fort Hood in 2009.

He killed 13 people and wounded 32 others while shouting "Allahu Akbar" during the attack.
The Secretary of the Army will set the time and place of the execution. Judgement day for Hasan has finally come.
