Apparently Mr. Sdar has decided against martyrdom.

Basically Sadr is a coward.. He won't have any followers after this.

Mr. Sadr consider yourself the recent member George W. Bush's "I punked you out club". Please proceed to the end of the that long line behind Hussein, Chirac, and Schroeder. Oh and save a space for John Kerry.

I think we should follow the Israeli example, lob a missile in there, and take Sadr out.

He was in an untenable position. Both the US and the upcoming Iraqi governments want his head. His popular support is waning as he shows that he is in it for personal power and would just as soon kill Iraqis as Americans. (And don't forget that his "militia" gets carved up faster then they can say "72 virgins". (BTW, I read yesterday that the Koran had been misinterpreted and that it didn't promise 72 virgins but good dring and plentiful food.)

Seems someone has gotten through to Sadr. Shown him the Big Picture. Maybe got him to laugh at a couple Mullah Nasrudin stories.

It looks like his patrons in Tehran have decided to cut their losses with this scumbag.

"Cleric"? Sheesh. It used to be a joke to say "How many divisions does the Pope have?"

I don't think this is going to get us to drop the bounty on his head.

That's a cry of pain if I've ever heard one.

"The US-led coalition accuses him of killing Abdul Majid al-Khoei"

An Iraqi judge 'accuses' him.


"Hey, serving an arrest warrant never fed any child. It's time to move onTM USMEDIA 1998 and tend to the nation's business!"

I wonder if he spends personal time with a sink too.

U.S. to Sadr (with slight Austrian accent):

Come with me if you want to live.

He knows that the new interim Iraqi government won't tolerate his activities. He needs to save face--and his skin.

Sadr supporters blocked their way, and fistfights broke out and missiles were thrown.

I'm trying to picture this. I guess a larger missile would have a range of about 10 feet, while a smaller one could go 25feet?

I'm all for a new start. Let's start with putting a bullet in al Sadr's head.

I must say, if this handover comes off well, Bush will be in an enviable position.
