No wonder Sadr wanted to return to the "truce".

We are slaughtering these guys by the bushels, folks. NO ONE in the media is "keeping score" of this, because this is the MAIN FRONT of a war, and we are winning overwhelmingly. But the way this is reported---in dribbles and drabs---no one is getting the full picture.

Al-Sadr blamed the United States for the violence in Iraq in a sermon read on his behalf Friday in the Kufa Mosque close to Najaf.

I'd blame the Americans for violence too if they were greasing my "fighters" at a rate of 100 to 1.

921 soldiers in 15 months vs an estimated 300 terrorists in 2 days. sounds like a quagmire all right. Good thing help is on the way.

Each side blamed the other for breaking the cease-fire. The U.S. military accused the militants of repeatedly attacking police in Najaf, and al-Sadr loyalists accused U.S. forces of surrounding the cleric's house Monday.

Let's see - killing policemen or stationing guards around a house, which action violates a "cease-fire"? Hmmmm . . .

"We estimate we've killed 300 anti-Iraqi forces in the past two days of fighting,"

300 less men trying to kill American soldiers. Go get em guys! Nice work.

"We call on the Islamic world and the civilized world to save the city."

At least he recognizes the difference.

Two U.S. Marines and an American soldier were killed in Najaf on Thursday, and 12 troops were wounded, the military said. Fifteen U.S. soldiers were wounded in Baghdad.

Please remember those and their families in your prayers who paid the ultimate price for freedom.
May God have mercy on their souls.
God bless!

Al Sadr as the Black Night


BLACK KNIGHT:
Come here!
ARTHUR:
What are you going to do, bleed on me?
BLACK KNIGHT:
I'm invincible!
ARTHUR:
You're a looney.
BLACK KNIGHT:
The Black Knight always triumphs! Have at you! Come on, then.
[whop]
[ARTHUR chops the BLACK KNIGHT's last leg off]

BLACK KNIGHT:
Oh? All right, we'll call it a draw.
ARTHUR:
Come, Patsy.
BLACK KNIGHT:
Oh. Oh, I see. Running away, eh? You yellow bastards! Come back here and take what's coming to you. I'll bite your legs off!

""The area near the (Imam Ali Shrine) is being subjected to a war," said Ahmed al-Shaibany, an official with al-Sadr's office in Najaf. "Najaf is being subjected to ... total destruction."

Just one time I would like to believe what these rats say ....
