he doesn’t have to actually pardon him.He can stop any investigation, stop any court martial, give him a medal and a promotion to Brigadier General if he wants to. He is the Commander in Chief.

I suspect there are too many family of guys who didn’t come back due to this guy for him to return here. Without plastic surgery I doubt even witness protection will work. If he values his life he will go back to the Haqqani.
