#2 ...he was willing to sell them his information in exchange for a new identity...

#3 Let's make him an offer he can't refuse. Cooperate and tell us everything he knows, or we take him someplace where everyone was abused by the Saddamite regime (Basra?) and turn him loose at high noon - with plenty of publicity beforehand - and then we drive off. heh-heh

#4 Typical "diplomat" -- they always think there's more room for negotiation, even when their government doesn't exist anymore. I'd give him one minute to decide between telling everything he knows or being turned over to the Kurds for detention until we are ready for a trial.

#7 Didn't he say that he would never be taken alive? Gee, I wonder if a new haircut and a bottle of Jade East would help his new identity? Maybe he could make a killing (pun intended) living in Las Vegas as an Elvis impersonator?
Maybe as a "guest" on the tonight show he could enhance his meager pension from the Iraqi Government?
