sorry, but IMHO Sadr+Maliki+Sistani are all one. That’s why Sadr has not been sent into that gentle good night……..

If that’s true, then it’s all for naught. But it’s not true at least not at this point in time. Sistani is not the same as Sadr, thank God / Allah – he actually seems to be the “quietist” outside the government scope and is an Iraqi Ayatollah counterweight now to the Iranian Supreme Council mullahs. Maliki started off real bad trying to accomodate the Sadrists (who formed originally for Mookie’s dad, a real martyr to Saddam’s tyranny) But Sadrists as a group of 20 plus legislators have been more of a pain in Parliament and government and as you can see daily, the splintered militia / gangsters are being hit daily by US, Iraqi army and now in the streets.
