Meanwhile, Grand Ayatollah Sistani in Iraq has just said that all Shiites should turn their weapons in to the government, that only the Iraqi government should have weapons. He is determined to shut down the militias, and told fat boy al-Sadr to disband his, immediately. This is huge, and helps Maliki get control of the insurgency.

That is huge, Sinkspur -- and I was totally unaware of it until I read your post. Just goes to show how both the MSM too busy bashing the President 24x7 to report such positive news.

Of course it's huge. Maliki is receiving the help of Sistani, and Sistani's word is LAW among the Shiites. That will isolate the Sunnis.

But, if you don't dig around, you'll think that all that's happening in America is hordes of illegals running amok, trying to destroy the country.
