| 2004-05-18 | |
| Nine militiamen loyal to rebel cleric Muqtada al-Sadr were killed in fighting with American forces in the southern city of Karbala early Tuesday, a witness said. Ten Iraqi fighters were also injured in the clashes, which lasted more than an hour on streets near the city's Imam Hussein and Imam Abbas shrines. Mu'taz al-Hasani, a witness, said he saw nine bodies of fighters from al-Sadr's al-Mahdi Army, which launched an uprising against the U.S.-run coalition in early April.

| #4 Is it just me or does it seem like there are two or three reports about Mehdi Army morons getting smacked every day--with no US casualties involved. Sounds like an effective slow decimation. |

| #3 I wish the CPA would incorporate a Sadrite Tote Board into their daily briefing. The could brief in front of a bunch of people answering phones and the numbers could increase during the briefing. |
