Sadr to US: ‘Interfere in early elections and you’ll be kicked out of Iraq’, 319 dead, 15,000+ injured
[Rudaw] Influential Shiite holy man  Moqtada Tateral-Sadr ... the Iranian catspaw holy man who was 22 years old in 2003 and was nearing 40 in 2010. He spends most of his time in Iran, safely out of the line of fire, where he's learning to be an ayatollah... on Monday warned "occupying America" against intervening in Iraqi affairs, including their supervision of the potential early elections to meet some anti-government protester demands. Sadr vowed to end US presence in Iraq if they continued to intervene in the country's affairs. "Enough of you interfering in our affairs. Iraq already has great [individuals] who can protect it and doesn’t need intervention from you or anyone else," Sadr, who is head of the 2018 parliamentary election-winning Sayirun Alliance, said on Monday.
