So, will Sadr’s endgame mark the restart of the Israel-Hezbollah war? Been nearly 2 years now.

Good post. The statement by Al Sadr made CNN but not FR until now.

When you let a guy get away with murder, everything he does after that is your fault. We better end this game now or the guy will just get stronger.

Troops entered the northern Hayaniyah district of Basra and took control in an operation lasting several hours, interior ministry spokesman Major General Abdel Karim Khalaf said. "We launched an operation in the morning. There was some exchange of fire. The operation is now over in Hayaniyah without any strong resistance," Khalaf told AFP.

Reading Mookie’s words, who does he think he is, William B Travis at the Alamo?

MANY mistakes have been made in the prosecution of this war. One of the biggest has been to leave this MAGGOT alive. The USA needs to consider staying out of wars it is not going to fight to WIN quickly, swiftly, and decisively with minimal cost in lives and money.

Moqtada Sadr threatened Saturday to launch "an open war"

Ok Mookie, we'll take that bet.

[SandRat]

Sadar,.. don’t open that can of worms. You’ll not like the end results.

"Without our support, this government would never have been formed."

True enough, and one of our bigger mistakes. We let him shoot his way into the government. Hopefully, this time we (or the Iranian government) will discourage his pretensions more thoroughly.

[Names Ash Housewares]

Hopefully he will declare open war, whatever that means, so they can finally grease this POS!

What will it take????

[FreeAtlanta]

He whines as bad as Barack Hussein Obama.

[hinckley buzzard]

Bring it on, Mookie. Go down in a blaze of glory. A**hole.

"Gaza was surrounded, and everyone was silent. Today, it was the turn of Sadr City and Basra, and everyone remains silent. Where are human rights? Where are the laws you take, in the name of freedom and democracy? "he says.

Wow, this guy has chutzpa

Mookie seems to have forgotten the "laws" of the Iraq government.

"Go ahead, make my day."

[DGHoodini]

I think he doesn’t have the support among the people that he used to have, or they would have raised all hell back when the Ieaqi first went inro Basra...His supporters are desrting him.

> In this text sent to the “mujahideen well loved and faithful”, he assured, “they accuse me of being in the hands of Iran, but I belong to Iraq. I belong to the will of my people. “

Is this nasty little man Sunni or Shiite? Anyone know?
