Justice Served

…Hasan Akbar Sentenced to Death

This is why I support the death penalty.

Pablo Paredes might be a cowardly dumbass, but at least he didn’t go to Iraq and murder his commanding officers in their sleep.

The last man executed by the US Military was U.S. Army Private John A. Bennett on April 13, 1961, who was hanged after being convicted for the rape and murder of an 11-year-old Austrian girl. I hope that Akbar is the next.

In World War II, it was common for executions to be carried out by firing squad, often by the condemned’s own unit.

Private Eddie Slovik was the last person executed for desertion (during WWII). He was shot by his own unit, the 28th Infantry Division, in a small town in northeast France. There were 70 executions by firing squad during WWII, but Slovik’s was the only one for desertion. The rest were for rape or murder.

Hasan Akbar should receive the same type of execution. Put him against a wall, and let the soldiers of the 101st Airborne Division empty their magazines into him. I’m sure there would be no shortage of volunteers for the task.

If this is the first time you’ve ever heard of Hasan Akbar, read these posts from Michelle Malkin, who has covered it extensively:

I’m generally an opponent of the death penalty but I’m open to arguments that military justice is a unique situation.

My two cents.

Let’s see if the PC military has the huevos to carry out this richly deserved sentence.
Actually, he should be staked out over an ant bed, but we’ll settle for the painless method just to get rid of him and affirm what’ll happen to trash like this.
