AL Sadr BACKS DOWN |
2007-05-05 |
The situation in Najaf returned to normal this morning after militiamen retreated without resistance reportedly obeying an order from Sadr. This wasn't the type of the usually exciting stories from Iraq but I'm pleased with the way it ended. If it's true that Sadr gave that order, I think it's not because he's trying to be nice but perhaps because he's beginning to realize that his militia can't afford open confrontations with government and coalition forces. Having the ability to deter thugs from making trouble is better than having to fight in order to end the trouble. "Cling to Liberty and right; battle for them; bleed for them; die for them, if need be; and have confidence in God." Dr. Phineas D. Gurley paraphrasing Abraham Lincoln. Omar and Mohammed, I believe this to be a major turning point in Iraq. One of several that must be achieved. Congratulations to the Iraqi Police and Armed Forces, supported by the coalition of many nations on the ground, for this victory over Sadr. Leader of one of several diabolical agencies known in the past for seeking to disregard your elected government. But now are choosing cooperation. The prospect of peace is brightly opening upon your torn and bleeding country, and through the support of free nations, support as strong and enduring as the sun, the attainment of a triumph, the fruits of which shall be wide spreading throughout the middle east, the fruit of free young men and women around the world who came to Iraq, who, with millions of Iraqis, did not lose faith, but through long suffering, energetic industry, faith in a true and just God, are bringing the dawn of a new and beautiful day of freedom to the people of your nation. |

#19 The fat prick is listening to his masters in Irant. They don't want an outright confrontation until after Coalition forces eventually withdraw. Kill him in his crib. |

#17 I would be advertising extensively to the people of Iraq that Sadr (the soon to be toothless bi+ch) has backed down. The more he is seen to be the coward he is, the better. |

#16 By all accounts young master Sadr actually is stupid, FeralCat. The only measurement by which he matches up to his father is that they both have (ok, Sadr, Sr. had, before he died) one X and one Y chromosome. ;-) |

#15 Sadr may be evil, but he is not S T U P I D! He is no doubt making evil plans for when the "surge" is over. |

#11 al-Sadr will probably be remembered as the founder of Iraq's equivalent of the democrat party. "Quick to treachery. Embrace the dictator. Iraq is wrong first." |

#9 With their minds full of hate and their heads full of sand Tater's Tots know their duty by the holy Koran. They're not afraid (don't back down, don't back down) Not his boys (don't back down, don't back down) They don burkas, they don't back down Don't back down You gotta be a little nuts Don't back down But show 'em now all your guts Don't back down Don't back down from the US Army. |
