#1 Only the free can protest like this. Maliki's enemies have freedom, but they would kill Maliki's supporters for comparable demonstrations. In environments like this public demonstrations have even less statistical significance than in, say, the US.

#2 Maliki is an American agent!

Yeah, and Sadr is an Iranian agent. Take your pick. That's what those election thingies are for. Didn't do all that well in the last election? Tough shiite!

#3 Didn't Sadr run to Iran when the government was being formed? If so, he should lose any rights to say how the government should be now other than just as another citizen of Iraq.
