[SHAFAQ] The Iraqi deputy, Faiq Sheikh Ali, commented on Monday, on the statement of Sadrist movement leader, Moqtada Tateral-Sadr
...hereditary Iraqi holy man and leader of a political movement in Iraq. He had his hereditary rival, al-Khoei, assassinated only a few hours after the holy rival's appearance out of exile in 2003. Formerly an Iranian catspaw, lately he's gagged over some of their more outlandish antics, then went back to catspawry...
, about the "near of his death."
Sheikh Ali said in a tweet, "Sayyed Moqtada al-Sadr will not die, and he will not be martyred... No, I swear by god..."
He added, "This is the fourth time that he (Al-Sadr) announces his imminent martyrdom... Moqtada al-Sadr will remain and his (electoral) list will win and he will form the government headed Jaafar al-Sadr..."
