The Army said Wednesday that Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan, accused of killing 13 people in a rampage on Fort Hood in 2009, will face the death penalty.
Lt. Gen. Donald Campbell Jr., the post's commander, ordered a capital murder trial after reviewing recommendations from an Army colonel who presided over an evidentiary hearing last year.
Fort Hood's action sets the stage for a trial that most likely will take place in about a year. While Campbell ordered a court-martial that allows prosecutors to seek the death penalty, Hasan must still be arraigned and a judge selected. In addition to being charged with 13 counts of premeditated murder, Hasan faces another 32 specifications of attempted premeditated murder.

This is taking far too long, of course, and it really irks me that Hasan is referred to as the "accused" killer or the "alleged" killer. This was the only headline I could find that didn't use those words.

Since he can’t stand up for the firing squad maybe they can just nail him to the wall while they load the rifles and such. It might only take twenty minutes or so, maybe a bit longer

If they do kill him I'm sure he'll get a half-hour Muslim burial.

We don’t want to anger the Muslim community so they should just let him go with a warning. -sarc

“Facing” or “living on taxpayers’ good will for 30 or 40 years”
I can’t believe this guy didn’t get a hot shot in his IV a day after the incident.

If he gets the death sentence, Hussein will give Hassan clemency.
I’m pretty sure of it.

I doubt very much that it took this long to compile the evidence, sift it, and decide on the charges. I’m afraid that these military superiors see this as a political hot potato, and don’t really want to deal with it.
Nowhere in the report was any mention made of Islam or terrorism. If and when it ever comes to trial, it will be interesting to see whether these words ever come up.

Ubama funding Muslim Brotherhood:
The Grand Jihad is Right on Schedule Come on, people. Are we the only ones connecting the dots? Talk radio is even silent on all this, including Ubama pal's "The Audacity of Hope" as a member of the latest anti-Israel "flotilla."

....or Obummer will pull a Clinton and execute him just before the 2012 election to prove he's “tough on crime” and “supports the troops”.../S

I’m sure the Boob and/or Holder will step in and put some sort of stay on this.

LTG Campbell is a good man. Many moons ago when he was my Battalion XO and I was a young LT, there was an incident in which he exemplified the notion of, ‘tough but fair.’

He was no murderer, he was a terrorist and I am sick and tired of the P.C. crowd not calling his attack upon the base, what it actually was; “a terrorist attack.”
