In other Iraq news, new details have been revealed in the rape of an Iraqi teenager and the murder of her and her family by U.S. troops in the town of Mahmoudiya. The Associated Press reports the military knew the alleged ringleader in the case had homicidal tendencies and spoke about his desire to kill Iraqis. The suspect, former Private Steven Green, is accused of raping 14-year-old Abeer Kassem Hamza al-Janabi and then killing her along with her two parents and five-year-old sister last March. Three months earlier, Green told an Army stress team he desired to avenge the death of fellow soldiers and kill Iraqi citizens. Green was prescribed a mood drug and told to get more sleep. He returned to duty the following day. One soldier has already been sentenced to 90 years. Green and four others face charges.
