#1 Seems a lot of the puffery out of Berlusconi's government is for domestic consumption, and that if we do due dillegence, and determine as I suspect, the driver had the brains of a turnip under the circumstances, time will heal any wounds...

#2 Sure, we'll punish our soldiers, the moment Italy hands over everyone involved in this ransom payment for supporting terrorists so they can be tried and executed. If Italy refuses, kick them out of Nato, blockade their ports and use interdiction strikes to shut down their borders.

#3 Italyâs foreign minister said Tuesday that the killing of an Italian intelligence agent and wounding of an Italian journalist by U.S. troops in Iraq was an accident, but he demanded that the United States conduct a thorough investigation and punish those at fault.

If it's an "accident", why are they so worried about fault?

#4 Yes, we will conduct a thorough investigation and yes we will punish those at fault. Unfortunately for the Italians, it appears that they guy at fault is already dead, so consider him punished enough.
