Al Qaeda in Iraq Ramps Up Its Racketeering

Is this a sign that Al Qaeda in Iraq (AQI) is on the wane? Yes, according to both U.S. and Iraqi sources, who base at least some of their information on intel gleaned from captured insurgents. Sources in Iraq have told NEWSWEEK that AQI is hitting a cash crunch and is increasingly turning to crime to help finance its deadly operations.

This American soldier received 110 years to serve in a prison while another soldier in the same group recieved a 100 year jail sentence for participating in the rape crimes on an Iraqi girl. Now if American soldiers are given severe prison penalties for their crimes; would America provide farin justice to the Guitmo "enemy combattants" who were captured by co-alition forces in Afghanistan/Iraw etc.?

“We were expecting the death penalty against those criminals and the place to
carry out the sentence is where the incident happened,” Janabiat’s cousin,
Abu Ammar, told Reuters.
Add Sticky Note
- The depth of involvement in the crimes determines the punishment of the criminals under America's laws. America has the death penalty in some states but not all states. The military laws are seperate laws enforced by the military and with a view od delivering "justice" to all concerned. I'm sorry that some people don't agree with the punishment given these soldiers but 100 or more years with loss of freedom can be more severe to bear than the death sentence. Sadam isn't suffering anymore for the crimes he committed and I wonder if he too, should have received a prison sentence of 100 or more years in jail. Sadam would still be in jail wishing he was executed , I would guess had he not been hung.

The accused ringleader, former Private Steven Green, was discharged from the
Army for a “personality disorder” and is awaiting trial in a civilian court,
where he could face a possible death penalty.
Sergeant Paul Cortez and Specialist James Barker, both of whom admitted to
raping the girl, received life sentences after pleading guilty earlier this
year
