Compensation seems appropriate. Sums of money much larger than compensation start to look like bribery. I think many people in this country wish Britain had Turkey's moral fibre when it comes to refusing bribes to act against one's conscience.

It takes two parties for a bribe to take place. One to fill up the envelope, and another to take the envelope.

If you want to talk about moral fib(er|re) as it relates to money, then you need to also address the economic links between Iraq and the dissenting countries.
