There never was any doubt that Maj. Nadal Hasan murdered 13 Soldiers and wounded 30 others in a shooting rampage at Army base Ft. Hood. Apparently there were no armed M.P.'s on the entire base and local Police were called. A (female ) Police Officer finally took him down before he could reload again. He was convicted by Court Martial of the premeditated murder of 13 and attempted murder of 30 other Soldiers on Aug. 2013. He has spent five years on death row in Ft. Leavenworth Ks. Isn't it about time they strapped him on the gurney?
 
It's kind of weird that the surviving Soldiers were awarded the Purple Heart in 2015. Does that indicate that the Obama administration conceded that Major Nadal acted on behalf of a foreign government? If so, the deaths of the 13 Soldiers are on the Obama administration that ignored warning signs that Major Nadal had become radicalized.
 
A little research indicates that the Navy hasn't executed anyone since 1849 and that the last execution of Army personnel happened in 1961. Apparently no U.S. Army officer in the history of the United States has ever been sentenced to death until Maj. Hasan
 
It took the federal government about four years to execute Tim McVeigh and I thought the system worked the same way for military prisoners like Hasan. It seems that federal executions are different from military executions. The Army is so reluctant to execute condemned prisoners that there is a soldier convicted of murder who has been on Leavenworth death row since 1988 and all his appeals have been exhausted so I guess Hasan will be around a while longer.
