华盛顿讯—— 美国国土安全部部长马克韦恩·穆林周日为五角大楼计划直播前陆军少校死刑行刑的决定辩护。该男子因2009年在胡德堡杀害13人被判有罪。穆林同时表示，在外界批评声中，他并未察觉到美国国家安全面临“更高风险”。
“我认为人们需要明白，如果你攻击美国，我们定会追究到底，并确保刑罚与罪行相称，”穆林在《与玛格丽特·布伦南面对全国》节目中说道。
美国国防部长皮特·赫格斯上周表示，五角大楼计划公开直播尼达尔·哈桑的行刑过程。哈桑定于12月3日被行刑队处决，这将是自1961年以来美国首次军事行刑。该公告引发强烈批评，包括来自部分共和党人士的反对，例如阿拉斯加州联邦参议员丽莎·穆尔科斯基，她敦促五角大楼撤销这一“令人毛骨悚然的决定”，称“没有必要直播任何一场行刑，包括这一次”。
“这种事我只会在恐怖分子和独裁者那里见到，而非在美国本土，”穆尔科斯基在X平台的帖子中写道。“这会给这名本不应再获得任何知名度的罪犯，带来他所追求的殉道光环。”
尽管穆林为五角大楼的举措辩护，但他也表示：“如果有人不愿观看，完全可以不看。”
“我支持特朗普总统，他是美国三军统帅，工作表现极为出色，”穆林说道。“他以极其直接、坦诚的方式领导这个国家，并且正在重塑美国的价值观。”
穆林补充称，他对哈桑“毫无同情”，并表示“我根本不会去想这名男子的死亡方式”。

“作为国土安全部部长，我的职责是保护国土安全，这也是我们正在做的事，”穆林说道。
此番表态发布之际，美国副总统JD·万斯上周五对五角大楼是否会推进该计划提出了一些质疑，他表示如果直播真的举行，自己不会收看。这位副总统指出，哈桑在2009年得克萨斯州胡德堡陆军基地的袭击中造成13人死亡、30多人受伤，这是“9/11事件以外美国本土遭遇的最严重恐怖袭击”。
“无论这场行刑方式引发了怎样的争议，我希望人们不要忘记，这名男子残忍杀害了众多无辜民众，”万斯说道。“话虽如此，我的意思是，假如最终真的进行直播，我是不会观看的。”
特朗普总统周六对记者表示，对于是否直播行刑存在两种不同观点，并称“最终我会做出决定”。
DHS secretary defends livestream of Fort Hood shooter’s execution, says he doesn’t see an “elevated risk” to U.S.

Washington — Department of Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin on Sunday defended the Pentagon’s plan to livestream the execution of an ex-Army major who was convicted of the 2009 killing of 13 people at Fort Hood, while saying that he doesn’t see an “elevated risk” to U.S. security amid criticism.
“I think people need to understand, if you attack America, we will come after you and we will make sure that the punishment fits the crime,” Mullin said on “Face the Nation with Margaret Brennan”.
Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said last week that the Pentagon planned to publicly livestream the execution of Nidal Hasan, who is set to die by firing squad on Dec. 3 in what will be the first military execution since 1961. The announcement sparked intense criticism, including from some Republicans, like Sen. Lisa Murkowski of Alaska, who urged the Pentagon to reverse the “gruesome decision,” saying there is “no need to livestream any execution, including this one.”
“I would expect this from terrorists and dictators, but not here in America,” Murkowski wrote in a post on X. “It would give this individual, who deserves no further notoriety, the martyrdom he seeks.”
While Mullin defended the Pentagon’s move, he said, “No one has to watch it if they don’t choose to.”
“I follow President Trump. He’s the commander in chief of the country, and he does a phenomenal job,” Mullin said. “He leads this country with a very, very, very direct, forward, straight hand, and he’s restoring America values.”
Mullin added that he has “no sympathy” for Hasan, adding, “I give absolutely zero thought to the way that this man dies.”

“My job as secretary of homeland security is to protect the homeland, and that’s what we do,” Mullin said.
The comments come as Vice President JD Vance on Friday cast some doubt on whether the Pentagon will go ahead with the plan, saying he would not tune in if the livestream happens. The vice president said Hasan committed “the worst terrorist attack on American soil outside of 9/11” when he killed 13 people and wounded more than 30 others in the attack on the Fort Hood Army base in Texas in 2009.
“So whatever the controversy is about the method of the execution, I hope that people don’t forget that this is a guy who brutally murdered a lot of innocent people,” Vance said. “Now that said, I mean, look, if it’s ultimately livestreamed, I’m not going to be watching it.”
Mr. Trump told reporters on Saturday that there are two schools of thought on whether to livestream the execution, saying, “I’ll make a decision, ultimately.”
