#1 He was killed after he grabbed a coalition soldier and was attempting to detonate a suicide vest

#2 I would surmise that the vest must have been a two step activation trigger, and not with a 'deadman switch' (one wouldn't want to prematurely explode before mission certainty!!) This gave the time for him to be stabbed or sniped on the spur!

#3 He kidnapped and murdered Iraqis, including a 9-year-old girl, to intimidate local citizens,

#6 "Gut shot and left to wander the desert in agony until he dies?" I asked hopefully.

"Nope. Dead as a doornail on the spot."

#7 Maybe God can reconfigure a small portion of Hell to meet your specifications, Mojo. We can always hope. If there was ever anyone that deserved it, this POS does.
