Good riddance.

Too bad there are years of automatic appeals.

isn't just the first one automatic and then he can waive them?

I can I volunteer to give him the needle?

Not the needle Please. Military hanging where the head comes off or firing squad directly to the little piece of paper on his heart.

I think this is too easy, let him rot in a cell and let him change his own sheeeet bags

Surgically amputate his left leg from the knee. Feed said limb to pigs. Force him to watch it become pig sheet. Surgically amputated right leg from knee. Feed said limb to pigs. Force him to watch himself slowly become pig sheet.

Repeat. Again and again until he realizes the last thing that can be removed is his head.

Whoa.

Too harsh? I hate the thought of respecting burial rites of a person who claims he acted to further his religious belief.

If his actions become analyzed, his stance is in fact an odd one. His justification for killing the soldiers was that he was saving people by killing those are killing killers. His job as a psychologist was to listen to others as they talked about killing his religious brothers, people he identified with. He could only take so much of hearing their horror stories, of all of their gruesome deaths.

In his eyes, he was doing justice for his people, by killing those who had killed his people.

I don't believe this justifies his actions, because what he did was completely wrong. It's just that we need to identify the root cause of his actions. He is/was sick in the mind, and is a danger to society. I agree with his punishment.

I can think of some nice hard targets on one of several tank ranges on West Range Road that Hassan could be tied to. Let a platoon of M1A2's send him to Allah with some nice 120mm Sabot rounds. I imagine getting some crews to 'volunteer' for this duty would not be too tough. Let the buzzards clean him up.

Shoot his ass and feed him to the hogs!

Interesting that the courts-martial for Hasan (happened 4 years ago), Manning (3 years ago), and Bale (1 year ago) all took place within a couple of weeks.

The only death he will see is from natural causes.
