THE SELF-DESTRUCTION OF SADR: (Link from Allah)

#1  In this instance, but not Fallujah, I agree with the thrust of the story: Sadr is doomed because the people of Najaf hate him.

We do what we're doing. Stay out of town. Kill his guys if they come anywhere near the perimeter.
The townspeople and the vigilantes are going to get Sadr...he's a thug and he's unwelcome.

Fallujah is a very different story. Move in and take out those who resist. Period.

I like the way we're playing it right now.
