Okay, we are going to nip an argument in the bud today. Yes, terrorists will celebrate the execution of Nidal Hasan, just as they celebrated the murder of his victims. They glorify dying for their cause, and of course, will use it in propaganda. But the argument that his execution will somehow unleash a massive wave of terrorist recruitment or inspire waves of suicide bombers needs to stop.

That motivation already exists, look at the waves of new recruits after the fall of Kabul, after October 7th, and after the fall of Assad. There are over a dozen terrorist camps in Afghanistan right now that soley train suicide bombers. These people want to destroy your way of life, plots bigger than 9/11 have been in the works since late 2021 and early 2022. The mere fact that I am a woman speaking out against them is enough for them to justify killing me, that is why there is a fatwa to do just that.

So whatever your opinion is on a live-streamed execution, have that opinion. But don't use the terrorists as your excuse. Stop pretending we need to worry about upsetting people who already want us dead.

Now, if you actually want to understand how terrorists inspire recruits, watch the video below. This is the most watched video, TODAY, inside Al-Qaeda training camps in Afghanistan. The Taliban were great and posted it online for all of us to use.

The video shows Jamaluddin Haqqani saying goodbye to Sirajuddin and the late Badruddin Haqqani before what recruits are told is him leaving to carry out a suicide bombing. But recruits are never told who Jamaluddin really is or that he is a member of the Haqqani family. Instead, he is sold as an ordinary fighter, just like them, receiving extraordinary love and admiration from terrorist leadership that he "earned" because he was willing to die for the cause.

The entire story sold to new recruits is built on deception and lies. First, Jamaluddin was literally family, hence the emotion. Second, Jamaluddin never actually even carried out a suicide bombing. He was killed a couple of years after this video was filmed, in the same U.S. strike that killed Badruddin.

So stop pretending one American execution is what inspires these people. This same argument has helped keep 9/11 mastermind Khalid Sheikh Mohammed alive for two decades, and it's weak. Terrorist organizations already have entire systems dedicated to manufacturing hate through manipulation and deception. We need to stop letting the fear of how terrorists might react dictate our decisions. And remember, terrorist stories never have happy endings anyway. https://x.com/sarahadams/sta

They will never stop trying to kill us all. The sooner we learn that the better. Read history about the Crusades.
We can’t win fighting by our rules.

Muslims will like the public execution and recognition of a mission success, but it might be good for helping the American public understand the gravity of all this terrorism stuff, a public execution might help America grow up and start thinking in terms of death, and societal security, and immigrants and Muslims as enemy agents that kill and can be executed by the military.

We may have some growing up to do in regard to all of that also related to possible wars with cartels that could turn very ugly and see some action and retaliations on American soil.

[SkyDancer]

The aftermath of the execution will more likely happen in blue states where there are gun laws preventing citizens from protecting themselves. In red states, not so much.

[oldtech]

We also must realize that,in the long run,they will surely lose. Of course, it’s unlucky that they even consider that or rarely ever even think about it, but I doubt that they seriously consider God’s word anyway.

[Big Red Badger]

Should we read This
Or comment first?

[RWGinger]

No one is saying showing the execution of the murder is the ONLY reason Muslims will want to kill AMERICANS But it would be foolish to deny it won’t ramp the terrorists up

[Tell It Right]

Most salient remark from the post: "Stop pretending we need to worry about upsetting people who already want us dead."

[MtnClimber]

Make sure the bullets are dipped in bacon grease.

[electricjack]

Fellow FREE REPUBLIC poster, my opinion makes it as public as possible DJT is 100% right. Show them what we do to those who commit MASSIVE VIOLATIONS OF THE UCMJ = Uniform Code of military justice. I am more pissed as to why this is like, oh, so many are drug out in America; a pox on lawyers and those that think they are smarter than normal people. Lawyers are 1 of the 2 biggest problems in America right after teachers at universities; a pox on the commie lovers.

[BipolarBob]

I always trust my gut and comment on the headline alone.

[steve in DC]

On Glenn Beck, this morning, he explained about how, when killed in Jihad, by a man, you become a martyr, replete with the promised 70 virgins to greet you in paradise.

Die at the hand of a woman?

No martyrdom, no 70 virgins. No paradise. You basically go to hell.

So... A firing squad of female soldiers, broadcast live. To all interested Jihadists.

We promise you dishonorable death, and you will be barred from paradise.

Have a nice day.

Nidal Hasan deserves to be executed.

But televising the execution will only lead to a wave of deadly Islamic attacks, right here in the USA!

This is despite the fact that most Americans had forgotten about him, including yours truly. But activist and terrorist muslims have not forgotten about him, and are already plotting revenge attacks!

[Chickensoup]

Foolish to televise his death. It should be held quietly at an unknown time and place body immediately cremated and ashes strewn at an unknown inaccessable location

He is not important. Don’t make him important.

The administration is a fool to do otherwise.

[Chickensoup]

No it won’t help.

See what I said about low keying the event.

Any lawyers jumping in to be involved need to be held for sedition.

[Chickensoup]

Show them what we do to those who commit MASSIVE VIOLATIONS OF THE UCMJ = Uniform Code of military justice.

.......

These people do not care. Martyrs do not see death as an issue.

[VAFreedom]

i’m okay with some american deaths that will happen anyway, if the execuion is public.

stocked up on pistol-caliber-carbines, they are so cheap i can afford to shoot 1000’s of rounds again.

they love death videos, i wouldn’t put it pass to them starting to kill more americans and try to spread the videos.

[Diogenesis]

he should be shot by women and vics,
and buried with a pig.

[xp38]

Dipping the bullets in pig fat or blood like Pershing did would be a nice added touch.

[ansel12]

Won’t help with which group mentioned in the post?
