Once again, Republicans are the shittiest Christians.
I’ll watch when it’s tRump, Hegseth, the rest of the cabnet, Musk, and the rest of the evil Republicans being lined up infront of the wall. I’ll set up a watch party and cheer.
I find it disturbing that some Americans glorify violence but vilify love and sex.
- Blood, dismemberment, decapitation? PG13
- Sex? Rated-R
- The F word more than one time? Rated-R
- Okay with public executions, but drag shows are too much.
- Gay people kissing? Woke and against nature
shithole country
I grew up watching ISIS and cartel execution videos, some of the worst stuff out there. This is not what the “good guys” are supposed to do. It’s just absolutely disgusting. Anyone who supports this is simply a terrorist
That should be reserved for the worst traitors we have ever seen, so…
I saw a joke going around: “False hope suddenly surges as the words ‘firing squad’ and ‘Trump’ are seen together.”
This is fetish content for him and his supporters.
because people need to understand that there’s serious consequences for these types of things
Everyone understands that. That’s not a question.
All this will do is provide something inside these terror networks to play over and over and over to their recent converts. A public execution of these radical attacks only serves to encourage more of the exact same thing. There’s no part of it that’s discouraging.
These terror networks will literally play it over and over again. They will tell their people. “Hasan killed 13 of them and he is now dead and in heaven for his actions. The US will make you all martyrs and your kin will know your acts.”
Like Hegseth has literally no clue who he is dealing with. The people who he acts like this will discourage, all it will do is make happier to jump at the chance to have the same thing happen to them. He’s going to make the best recruitment tool for these terror organizations.
they are all too stupid to understand any of the points you are making
They’re all definitely stupider than shit, but idk if they’d care even if they did understand. They want more terrorist attacks because they think that will get them reelected and they pretty obviously don’t give a crap about who gets hurt in their quest for power.
⬆️ The correct answer right here.
The FBI just manufactured, then heorically stopped a terror plot at the Mall of America the other day
The Trump admin wants terror plots right now, they feel it will help them in the midterms
They saw Netanyahu cancel elections after 10/7 and avoid the consequences that were coming his way.
Yep they’ll just say the thread op is “defending Muslim terrorists” or some bullshit
Hegseth probably is. The people telling him what to do…they probably have some idea
You think they don’t want that? The more terror attacks on Americans the more they can push for the totalitarian police state to protect us.
It’s what Israel has been doing by funding Hamas and splintering Palestine.
Like Hegseth has literally no clue who he is dealing with. The people who he acts like this will discourage, all it will do is make happier to jump at the chance to have the same thing happen to them. He’s going to make the best recruitment tool for these terror organizations.
I don’t think its accurate to say that Hegseth doesn’t know what he is doing.
Making the execution public is on purpose, so the question is what purpose does it serve.
-
The most obvious seems to be about ego, and being a “tough guy” Hegseth (and Trump) are obsessed with being seen as strong men, and they think a public execution makes them seem tough
-
Terror, the next most obvious is that this is a part of the regimes ongoing terrorism campaign against Americans. Hegseth (and republicans in general) are telling people that they will find and execute anybody they think is an enemy.
“Speaking to Real America’s Voice, Hegseth made clear that the decision was deliberate. “We’re gonna make sure that people are able to watch it, that it’s public, because people need to understand that there’s serious consequences for these types of things,” he said.”
-
Desensitization seems to be next. The constant ramping up of violence, and the political celebration of violence is a pretty deliberate attempt to make government run violence a normal part of life.
-
Precedent is probably on this list. Now that the Regime can publicly execute people for terrorism, they can publicly execute anybody. They have already said that anybody who is against fascism is a terrorist, and they already have assaulted, imprisoned and killed people for it. Now they are setting a precedent that they can do it legally.
-
Pissing off Muslims and making more enemies is probably here too. The regime needs people to blame atrocities on, when Trump nukes Los Angeles, he is going to want to blame it on “extremists.” It fuels his forever war, and gives him an unlimited supply of support from people that don’t look too hard. This seems to be rather low on the list, since the regime already lies about everything, and lying about muslim terrorists is probably easier than telling the truth about muslim terrorists, but anything to cloud the waters is probably a bonus.
-
All the guy wanted was to die a martyr. He said so at his sentencing. Not only is this not going to show serious consequences but encourage future terrorists like you pointed out.
That said, Hegseth would be all too happy to encourage more violence on US citizens if it means ramping up the security apparatus and eroding citizen rights. No better than Netanyahu allowing Oct 7th to be as murderous as possible.
They don’t give a shit about Islamic terrorism. This is just another push of the Overton window.
If you think this will be the only live streamed execution, you’re in for a bad time.
So long the next ones are theirs
No, he understands very well the fascist economy needs enemies. If you gave Petey-pie a button that cleanly deleted Islam from the planet, he’d never press it because he can’t function without an opposing religious extreme…
For a sillier analogy, Batman and the Joker fight all the time but can’t exist without each other.
If you gave Petey-pie a button that cleanly deleted Islam from the planet, he’d never press it because he can’t function without an opposing religious extreme…
Yeah, and he can’t touch Saudi Arabia, being one of the largest purchasers of military equipment and in control of the Sunni mindset preventing the rest of the Muslim world from trying to intervene in the nakba.
Honestly, there is much greater than a 0% chance that Hegseth didn’t understand serious consequences until he himself was exposed to it, so he thinks everyone else needs that type of awakening.
Also, for the people who care about that, firing squad is how you kill other soldiers. By extension, the Pentagon is acknowledging this man as a combatant and not a terrorist.
Traditionally reserved for (noble) officers too. Regular soldiers got a one to the back of the head or just hanged.
100%. The guy didn’t do it thinking he’d get away with it or the US military would give him a slap on the wrist at his court martial. He intentionally tried to get the death penalty.
It degenerates the society that makes it a spectacle.
Everyone knows shooting sprees are bad but people still do them in spite of the punishments.
Oh look.
Bread has become expensive,
so here come the circuses.
When this is over, we need to recreate that famous photo of Mussolini a few hundred times all over DC. (You know the one.)
Doubtful to happen, unless an ideological change happens amongst the populace. The government has almost consolidated their power over the US. They’re aiming to stay in power indefinitely.
I’d like to be proven wrong and witness a fair upcoming election, but what can I say.
I feel the pendulum swinging back the other way, but I fear there may too many ropes in place to keep it suspended on the side of fascism. I guess we’ll see.
Bold move considering the crimes the administration have commited.
Committed so far! They’re here to stay, whether the US citizens like it or not.
Unless…
don’t worry, I’m sure they’ll be punished accordingly by being forced into the Time Out Zone (an inflatable bounce house on the White House lawn).
Well we may have another televised event sometime in the future on january the 6th then🤞
Fucking disgusting. But then again, religion isn’t exactly shy when it comes to wanton death.
Evil fucking bastard. Supported by evil fucking bastards Voted for by evil fucking bastards.
We need to get rid of all evil fucking bastards.

Hegseth needs to be hanged
He said he ‘preferred the WW2 times’ even though the last public execution was pre-ww2. IN WW2 he himself would be hanged.
I also preferred when we fought and hanged fascists instead of electing them.
And socially ostricized. He is a fucking scum bag.
A shame that John C Woods isn’t still around.
Eh I’m sure there’s someone other than Hegseth who’s drunk enough to do the job
Disgusting pig of a man. They’re probably going to have betting wagers to see how fast this guy dies.
surprised they arent trying to sell tickets
I think the only firing squad execution worth watching since WWII would be one where it is Donald J. Trump who is being fired on.
The revolution will not be televised.
God, I’d actually pay to watch that. They could market it for ppv. Lots of people would pay for that I expect.
I’d just pirate it.
Nah, you gotta support them so they know to do more fascist executions :)
We could probably fund social healthcare for quite a while with the proceeds.
