That is , quickly in the sense that let us not give him 20 years on death row. If they want to use the "Death by 1,000 cuts" method, that would be O.K. with me.

After he gets a fair trial of course.

Just how does the Army mete out capital punishment these days?

IIRC, it is lethal injection, but we have not executed a soldier since the early '60s, and that was by hanging.

I did see the death chamber in 1989 when it was still equipped with the electric chair. Sturdy, but not particularly comfortable.

Were it my decision, I would select the longest, most painful means of execution possible for Hassan. Flogging to death, perhaps. Or a bad hanging job or a dry skull sponge electrocution. Remains to be fed to the hogs.
