7. He was our soldier
and he followed our rules correctly. There is no need to do anything to him. Our system is setup to punish our guys and our guy broke no rules according to our rules of engagement. Why on earth would we give him to Italy if according to our rules in the war zone under our jurisdiction he did nothing wrong?

I'm not trying to be a jerk here, it's just this is really really simple, he broke no laws that would force us to turn him over to Italy. There was no crime committed according to US military law, the law that governs this soldier. And since the US has wisely not signed the ICC treaty Italy has no right to ask for him.............
