Here is an amplication that should be obvious to both the US Military in Iraq as well as to the Iraqi civil authorities who are trying to build a nation in the midst of all this carnage….every day that Muqtada al-Sadr remains alive, running his little army of Shia thugs and his cotorie of “Ministers”, the fate of Iraq is in the hands of lawless, murdering fanatics.
al-Sadr should now have been dead for at least three years. If you don’t shoot the little bastard, then arrest him, try him for treason, murder or any of the other capital crimes he as either directed or committed, and then hang him. Hang his successor just for good measure. Hang, shoot or chase off every Iranian national in Iraq too, just to be sure.
If you cannot disarm these people, outlaw these so called “militias”, you lose. And you, sir, cannot afford to lose. The American Dhimmicrats will succeed in getting us to leave within the next 2 years, and as soon as we leave, if reasonable men do not control Iraq, then I fear for your life.
