But everyone knows Basrah was lost. Just ask the press...
MSM = Iranian propagandists.

Iraqi soldiers took control of the last bastions of the cleric Moktada al-Sadr’s militia in Basra on Saturday, and Iran’s ambassador to Baghdad strongly endorsed the Iraqi government’s monthlong military operation against the fighters. A concession to reality by the mullahs, and a confirmation of Mao's famous statement that political power grows out of the barrel of a gun.

Why his fighters have clung to those fight-then-fade tactics is unknown.
I know why. Because they are cowards and can’t stand up to us in a real fight. al-Sadr is a piece of crap that needs a good flushing.

"Why his fighters have clung to those fight-then-fade tactics is unknown." Ummm, because when a ragtag militia stands and fights against an organized and equipped military force, it gets it's butt kicked? The MSM is still grasping at straws to find a victory in what looks more and more like a crushing defeat for their heros.

“Despite the apparent concession of Basra, Mr. Sadr issued defiant words on Saturday night. In a long statement read from the loudspeakers of his Sadr City Mosque, he threatened to declare “war until liberation” against the government if fighting against his militia forces continued. “
Time to JDAM that fat tub of shit!

A concession, is something that is given.
The Iraqi Army *took* Basra away from the criminals.
