There is a big fight in the USA. The government plans an execution on camera. The offender is Nidal Hasan. He killed 13 people in the year 2009. Now a shooting squad kills him on December 3.
US defense minister Pete Hegseth wants to show the act on the internet. He wants to show this: Bad crimes have bad results. But many politicians think this is wrong. They say: Public executions are cruel. Such pictures only help dictators.
The United Nations also criticize this. They say: A live stream of an execution is torture. This goes against human rights. There was no public execution in the USA for 90 years. Back in the year 1936, 20,000 people came to watch.
