The Global Post website reports today (July 7, 2011) that the U.S. military has approved a possible death penalty in the future military trial of Maj. Nidal Hasan -- the American Muslim accused of killing 13 people at Fort Hood, Texas in 2009.
Hasan -- a former Army psychiatrist -- will stand trial by court-martial within the next few months.
On July 6, Lt. Gen. Donald Campbell -- the Fort Hood commander -- formally announced that the charges against Hasan will be tried as capital offenses.
