Pete Hegseth’s plan to livestream execution puts US in dubious company
Only Iran and Afghanistan routinely carry out sentences in public, with Saudi Arabia appearing to have ended practice
If the US defence secretary, Pete Hegseth, goes ahead with plans to livestream the execution of a soldier radicalised to extremist Islam who killed 13 people at a military base in Texas, his country will join a motley assembly of lesser powers and rogue actors who have conducted public executions in recent years.
