#3 I caught a small glimpse of some bomb sight video on Fox news today. Anyone know where it can be found. It was a bunch of bad guys being taken out running down the street at night. I am not sure of the location or date.

#4 "emerged with his militia intact. "

Intact? lighter by several thousand dead/wounded, plus all the heavy weaponry they had at Najaf.

#5 Keep in mind, this is all a sideshow. Sadr isn't that important, it's just all the shooting that gets everyone's attention.

#6 gromky, while Sadr himself is no towering pillar of statesmanship, he still represents one of the main thrusts for Iranian-style domination in Iraq. Rest assured that Sistani, too, is a significant proponent of theocracy, but he seems more willing to play within the established guidelines. Sadr's willingness to incite violence and continually disrupt any progress towards some degree of normalcy is a more significant issue. Getting this maggot down to room temperature will go a long way towards bringing law and order to Iraq.

#7 Salam made a trip through Sadr-ville on the 31 st. I am waiting for somebody of Arab persuation to claim that the Americans are violating the principles of hudna by refusing to let our enemy reconstitute and reload.
