Masked gunmen assassinate Muslim cleric in Najaf
2006-12-04
(KUNA) -- Sheikh Yassin Al-Harab, a Muslim cleric at Martyr Mohammad Sadiq Al-Sadr office, was assassinated Sunday by the hands of masked gunmen, said a security source.
I'm guessing this was the origin of the rumor that Tater was bumped off yesterday...
The source told KUNA that the victim was shot dead in front of his house in Al-Askari neighborhood northern Najaf. According to the source the murderers fled the scene and the investigations were still conducted to determine who was behind this crime. Despite local, regional, and international calls to stop the Pandemonium here, Iraq still witnesses daily images of chaos.

#7  Help promote the weakest
That's what hereditary leaderships like Tater's already do. Can't wait to learn what idiocy the third generation of Kims will reveal.

#4  Keep whacking any reasonably competent subordinates of Tater. Help promote the weakest - in the long run it will be the most effective way to weaken the whole organization. Sort of the reverse process of 'culling the herd.'

#3  Omar at IraqtheModel emailed to say that the source of the Sadr's Dead rumor, albasrah.net, is not trustworthy and probably insurgent (Sunni, I presume) propaganda.

Damn.

#2  They missed Tater? I knew it was to good to be true but at least it will put the Simian for Sharia spinning in his diaper hat.

#1  Sunni? Shia? Unitarian? Methodist? Buddist?

Anybody care?

Oh, in Sadr's office? Guess that makes him a Shia. So near, and yet so far.
