#1 Hang his ass.

In Iraq.

And let the Iraqis know justice is done.

#2 OS, I agree wholeheartedly. This would be a good thing for Iraq to see, that even the most powerful are subject to the rule of law. They need examples of that because they've never seen it in their own country before.

#3 Sounds like Barker & Cortez got fairly reasonable sentences - 90 & 100 years (though I'd have castrated and hanged 'em)- and should never have tho opportunity to rape (a female) again. Howard pled down, partially for cause and partially for testimony, pretty standard stuff.
If the story is correct, Green is the one who should be extradited to Iraq for trial, and since he's already out of the military and in the civilian justice system, that may just be possible.
