A deal was reached? After weeks of breathless reporting about the siege why haven't I heard anything before now about this deal to end it?? Jeez.

Some of the bodies had been mutilated or burned, according to the reports.

It is important to note that panties were not used here as a means of torture.

Dear Lord! NO! Did any of them have panties on their heads?

On a series note, I hope Sistani turns him and his people over to the Iraqi government for trial.

I would think the mortaring of the peace marchers would sort of inflame people against him, but I can't say I ever understand the muslim mind, or its capacity for shameless cruelty.

If he goes free it sucks but if we can keep him out of that damned Ali Shrine we can come down on him like a ton of rocks next time he gets out of his box.

At least 25 bodies of executed civilians and police have been found in the basement of a religious court set up by rebel cleric Moqtadr al Sadr, according to AFP news agency.

Don't expect to see much coverage (if any) of this embarrassing & inconvenient detail in the MSM.

An Iraqi police officer inspects the area where about 10 bodies were discovered in a maverick religious court run by rebel Shiite cleric Muqtada al-Sadr's followers in the southern city of Najaf, Iraq Friday Friday Aug. 27, 2004. Al-Sadr's office in Najaf set up the court, which ordered arrests and meted out punishments outside of religious and legal authorities. Local Iraqi officials have in the past demanded the court be shut down and all prisoners freed. (AP Photo/Khalid Mohammed)

Perhaps the good cleric's demands were nonnegotiable.

Looks like they won't be letting him "lay down his arms and go home."

But it's a "holy" court, so it's off limits.

It was reported on FreeRepublic yesterday. I put this up:

Iraqi government OKs al-Sistani peace deal for Najaf

You just cannot leave your terminal and stay up to date!

Allawi has already said Sad'r will go free.

But that was enough to get him out of the Shrine,....and before this gruesome discovery.... I think Allawi could do a change of direction.....

He better not get away with this, but he's gotten away with it so far...I'm not holding my breath.

Hang the SOB.

Sounds like a deal buster and cause for the arrest of Sadr.

Let's hope so!

Surely, even in the Muslim world this calls for some kind of action against this Devil!

What will Iran now do to protect their agent?
