Gosh. I was going to say seduce him, then kill him, for the maximum moolah from selling your story to the [**News of the World.**](http://www.newsoftheworld.co.uk)

I think he should be turned over to the Iraqis after the war for trial. Let them do whatever they wish with him.

I wouldn’t do anything to him, if I captured him except for arrest and dentention. After all, he hasn’t done anything to me.

I would do whatever my commanding officers had told me to do - I would imagine they’ve been instructed on this, as it’s not unlikely that some coalition member or another is going to stumble across him. On the off chance that I had received no instructions, and was abso-freakin’-lutely sure it was him, I would shoot him right in his silly mustache.
