#1 Considering the source, I'd take all of this with a couple of tons of salt...

#2 Mr Maliki, a spokesman for the moderate Shia Da'awa party
Yeah, I'd hate to run into the representative of the Jihad party.

#3 WaPo the other day said they were considering a deal where we leave Sadr be till a new Iraqi govt is in place to try him.

#4 I would think that the Yassin and Rantisi solution would be the best for dealing with Sadr. A video of a Predator-launched Hellfire impacting just below the black turban broadcast on all channels should do wonders for the negotiations.

#5 I would think that the Yassin and Rantisi solution would be the best for dealing with Sadr.

I concur. There has to be a clear demonstration that for now, the CPA is THE authority and that people like Sadr can't be allowed to undermine it. Whether that involves killing or imprisoning the him, well, whatever it takes.

#6 I don't think there is a power on earth that can detain Mr Sadr.

Small quantities of cordite and lead can detain most anybody.
