#1 But you cannot show any respect to sadr. I think the Poles have a clue. But how do you put an end to this faker. He has to be taken out.

#2 I think that Sistani will use Al Sadr as a useful tool in his dealings with the US. Sadr is a threat to him, but now has been defanged. Sistani wants to make himself da man in dealings with the US. So if we go after Sadr by the Marine Method, Sistani will make his ~~fools spittle-boys fodder minions~~ followers go ape ~~shiite~~ shit and bring on another rebellion against us.

Anyone who lives his life around a martyr who lost a war and cuts up their kids on their scalps is one sick f--k.

#3 Alaska Paul:

You must be referring to those crazy Shiites that cut themselves during Ashoura. They cut their kid's scalps and they bleed all over the place. Sickos!

#6 It occurs to me that this Sadr-sealed-off-by-a-cordon-of-US troops thing is a smaller version of what we (and the Brits) did to Saddam in the 1990's. Now that Sadr is harmless, our local allies are against finishing the job. For them, it is much better to have a bunch of Yanks sitting on their asses in the desert for godknowshowlong instead.

That crap wasn't sustainable with Saddam, and won't be here...

#7 The Poles are adopting the good cop role

They've see our Marines take care of business (snarl).

Last night there was a high-speed chase that ended 1/2 block from my home (really). The county sheriff deputy with a megaphone (like the poles) says in a soothing voice, "There is a dog here (the Marines). He will go to where you are. You may get bit. Come out with your hands up, or the dog will go in." (Large German Shepherd growls)
