<After I'd finished GoF, though, it made me wonder...did Moody/Crouch
punish Draco because (a) he was angry that Lucius Malfoy was living
the life of a "respectable" wizard, even though practicing the Dark
Arts, and wanted to take it out on his son, (b) because he thought
bullying Draco would keep up the charade and futher prove that he was
the real Mad-Eye Moody, or (c) he was telling the truth and thought that
attacking another wizard while his/her back was turned was a cowardly,
scummy thing to do? Perhaps (d) he was just ensuring that Malfoy and his
gang would leave Harry alone and not endager Harry's chances of winning
the Triwizard Cup? >

This reply might come in late..but I think Moody/Crouch punished Draco
because the former is a stickler for 'rules' and 'just punishment'..in
his own way Moody/Crouch is a 'gentleman' fighter. In that final
confrontation/talk he had with HP (when he revealed himself as
Crouch),remember how he was persistent in finding out how V administered
punishment to those who weren't as loyal as he was? His punishment of
Draco was not for show or vengeance..so I would say (c) above is the
correct answer...:)
