The article is pretty much self-explanatory. UK has much higher standards than USA's military, and is generally better respected, and for that matter they decided to keep their good image and pay a decent fine for the crime of few soldiers. And come on, crimes committed were not done by the whole British army and wasnt ordered by superiors, but merely some soldiers who are retarded and think that they are above the law, just because they are in Iraq. Too bad the punishment for the guilty soldiers was minimal.
There's a reason for greater stability in the British administered Iraqi south. They treat Iraqis better, have better cohesion with the locals and aren't represented by Bush. But British have since withdrew most of their forces, I believe ... 
In any case, there should have never been any occupation of Iraq, and this murder and hundreds of thousands of others would not have happened.
