#9  As expected; he'll be the joker in this card game! His end game will be to stir civil war after the handover; within the next 3 years. His goal is to "unite" the Iraqi Islamic sympathizers with the rule of Iran to formulate a defacto 'Super State'!Should he survive, of course and banking on inaction from Israel (interceding into Iranian airspace!!)

#8  Or perhaps the current administration plans to let the Iraqis execute him for the murder for which he is charged. He'll be equally dead, we won't have made him a martyr, the Iraqis will get some experience with how to handle "insurgents" and a message may be sent to future "insurgents". Doesn't get the blood up as well, but probably better in the long run.

#7  Sadr is a 'legitimate' voice in Iraq! Just ask Kerry!

This may or may not come as a surprise, but I feel that some of the current administration officials get some of the blame also. Gen. Kimmitt stated a while back that Sadr was either going to be captured or killed, but at the moment we have neither. Excuse me for sounding exasperated, but IMO a lack of testicular fortitude is what's caused all these problems, from Fallujah to Sadr. And for the record, I don't believe Kerry is going to be any better.

#6  But Bomb-a-Rama! Sadr is a 'legitimate' voice in Iraq! Just ask Kerry!

I say fuck-em! If they dont like the results and try to impose their will, kill them.

#5  Not a problem. No participation, no say. If they try to impose their views on everybody else at gunpoint, kill them. Simple as that.

#3  General Hertling was overheard to reply: "Don't like that invitation, fatso? How 'bout this one: You and a 1000 of your mini-martyrs meet me at the OK Corral Mosque. It should be easy to spot me. I'll be the one wearing a light tan, late model Abrams. Bring buckets so we can clean the floor with you afterwards. We are very keen to preserve the sanguinity sanctity of the mosque."

#2  It still amazes just how stoopid arabs can be. How Tater can be popular is beyond me. it seems coherency in thought processes has still penetrated the arab mind only slightly. Too bad.
