#1 Cell phones and computers stripped of information, captives' brains ditto... Iranian Special Groups troops are legitimate prisoners of war if in uniform (unlikely), unquestionably spies otherwise. There ought to be a special prison for them, in which they might await events. In the meantime, I imagine that either each one leads to a few more, or the neighbors are turning them in, or both.

#2 I'm sure the fabled revolving door is well-oiled and spinning furiously. There ought to be a special gallows for Iranian infiltrators, to be used as often as necessary.

#5 I've been out of the loop for a while, but the high-value guys were not eligible for review by Iraqi magistrates, thus could not be sprung. Don't know if that's still true. Hard to imagine these sorts are being kept or treated the same as the great unwashed seas of regular detainees.
