| Aide: Al-Sadr ready to negotiate in Najaf |
| 2004-08-24 |
| "We want a stop to this bloodshed in the city of Najaf," said the aide, Sheikh Ali Smaisem. "We will negotiate with the same delegation from the [Iraqi] National Conference, and we want them to bring a representative from the government." Translation: you are killing our "recruits" faster than we can replenish them. Let's talk for awhile so that we can bring more people into the slaughter a few days later. |

| #7 Why do I get the feeling that if Al-Sadr is gonna negotiate, it's going to be via a conference call dialed with a 021 country code? |

| #6 B-a-r: "I don't honestly believe that every single one of the Shiites is totally retarded..." You don't? And why would that be? Have you factored in the centuries of inbreeding? How about the completely whacked out belief system and the indoctrination in same since birth? "...but I am beginning to wonder if they're really worth the lives and effort expended on them." The answer is no, they are not. This is a failed culture that is beyond redemption. They need to...go. All of them. If we conquered and subdued Islam tomorrow, it would take several generations to undo the damage that hundreds of years have wrought. We would be better off declaring this a failed line in human evolution and remove the infection. As a species we will be better off in the long run. Besides, it isn't as if they don't plan on doing the same thing to us. JMO! CiT |

| #5 I know that I am ethnocentric and not culturally Sennnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnsitive, but anyone that does that Massive Headwound Harry scalp cut and bleeding thing (esp. on their kids!!!) might not be all there. When martyrdom becomes the driving thing for the religion, I question their ability to rationally work through things. There seem to be various degrees of it, but the top dogs (clerics) do seem to be pushing it pretty hard. |

| #4 This is what happens when asscracks like Sadr are not dealt with promptly. After the offer to be a part of the political process was spurned the first time, he should have been taken out with no questions asked, instead of repeated pleas to disband his thug army, enter into the political process (again), or whatever. Now this whole merry-go-round is looking to make yet another revolution. AGAIN. I don't honestly believe that every single one of the Shiites is totally retarded, but I am beginning to wonder if they're really worth the lives and effort expended on them. |

| #1 Regroup, rearm, resupply through the catacombs. Buy more time on Al Jizzara. NOW is the time for Allawi to publicly declare Tater a thug and a murderer, in effect to deligitamize and (*horrors!*) humiliate him and take him out of the political arena, if not this vale of tears. It is time to resolve this issue and move on to Fallujah. |
