Greens call to block 'shocking and barbaric' US execution live stream

The Australian Greens have formally requested that the federal government intervene to block the live streaming of the scheduled December 3 execution of Nidal Malik Hasan in the United States. The call follows a public declaration by US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, who stated his intention to ensure the execution is broadcast to the public.

The Greens have characterized the proposed live stream as a shocking and barbaric practice. The party is seeking to prevent the dissemination of the event, citing concerns over the ethical implications of broadcasting a state execution.
