ABU GHRAIB, Iraq — On the eve of the first court-martial in the Iraq prisoner abuse scandal, relatives of those still held at Abu Ghraib prison said Tuesday the only suitable punishment would be death -- illustrating the potential gap in expectations in the case. "If they actually committed such offenses, they should be executed," said Odai Ibrahim, 55, as he waited in a line with hundreds of other Iraqis to visit relatives at the prison on the western outskirts of Baghdad -- notorious as the site of executions and torture during Saddam Hussein's regime.

If found guilty, they should suffer a fate far worse than simple death -- they should be placed in a naked pyramid, wear ladies panties on their heads, be photographed, then released. Hey, the Arabs themselves said that sort of punishment is far, far, worse than death. So be it!

Make them put shoes in their mouths!

[RolandBurnam]

give me a break. These guys deserve no punishment. We can't interrogate prisoners? These are the bad guys for crying out loud.

[sathers]

Call the waaabmulance!

[no_problema]

[Lowell]

I would have made them shower in pig urine, just to loosen them up a little.

LOL! Very true.

Odai Ibrahim went on to say that "all the Americans should be executed." Odai used to hold a high ranking position in the former Saddam regime.

A big gold medal.

EXACTLY! Wish some pol had the guts to say that.
"Torture", "Abuse", Damn, don't any of our "leaders" have any backbone? This is insane.

[NoClones]

If the prisoners committed offenses...they deserve death?

What did that kookie person say?

[Militiaman7]

Let me get this right for embarrassing those fine upstanding Iraqi citizens (murderers, thieves, criminals) there families are calling for the death penalty?

A Nuke is too good for these guys.

Lighten up, Odai.

'Oh the horror. The horror'

I don't need to ask, but does anyone here think the American media gets it yet?

wonder what they think the murderers of nick berg should get?

I doubt they will ever say anything. They just want to ignore the obvious. In their minds killing an American is pleasing to Allah.

No punishment at all. Remember, Mr. Berg was an American, a Jew, thus worthy of their hate and lust for American and Jewish blood on their hands. Everyone wants to know why there is no outrage in the middle east over this. The answer is a very simple and easy one that the communist in the press refuse to ask. The answer is, Berg was a Jew and Arabs are sworn in their so called religion to kill any and all Jews. Therefore, no outrage, rather celebration on their part. If anyone in the USA is waiting for an apology or outrage from the rag heads, I got news for you. Hell will ACTUALLY FREEZE OVER before you get one.

From the reports I hear they face death every day and night

Tell those families to go eat a ham sandwich

[Argus]

I expect the anti-capital punishment NY Times to issue a scorching editorial chastising these bloodthirsty, vengeful and undoubtedly racist Iraqi families.

But enough comedy...
