#1 Old news. Our men and women are well aware that this is an ongoing problem (and seems to me one of the most difficult -- back-watching).

#3 Just the LASlimes trying to create dissention. We KNOW that the Mahdi Army has infiltrated the police and military. That's one reason Petreus wanted Kurds to help subdue Baghdad. What we need to do is address the source of funding and training for the Mahdi Army - Iran. Nuke the border (their side), hit Qom and Tehran, and wipe Bandar Abbas and Busher off the map. Then tell Sadr we'll withdraw from his city in a couple of days - so we can safely bomb it into oblivion. Set up checkpoints toward the south, to catch his useless a$$ as he bugs out for Karbala or Najef.
