Followers of Shiite cleric Muqtada al-Sadr take to the streets in the southern Iraqi city of Basra Monday Aug. 9, 2004. The British military said it had reports that 150 militants were walking through Basra demanding all shops be closed. Sadr's al-Mahdi Army threatened Monday to take over local government buildings in Basra if U.S. troops did not leave Najaf. (AP Photo/Nabil Juranee)

Good, Mr. Sadr! Now if you would be so kind as to write your name on your flip-flops so we can identify where you where when we vaporized you.

I just love looking at radical flip-flops in the street, don't you, CG?

In todya's NYTimes, there's a front page pic, atributed to Reuters of a terrorist aiming an RPG at a US Apache. the camerman BEHIND the terrorist..so you can see the tube aiming at the chopper..this suggests the obvious, that the Reuters guys are with the terrorists..

If the press can photograph these punks walking down the street, why can't our soldiers kill them?
