#1 His time should've been up long ago. The asstard Fatah al-Sheikh provided cover - he should be gone, too, as an accomplice and co-conspirator in this violence.

The Iraqis in charge have to get it through their thick Arab skulls that you cannot allow criminals and foreign agents with private militias and no qualms about instigating violence to exist. There will be no peace as long as they keep trying to appease and buy off and negotiate with Tater or the Sunnis supporting the violence.

The endgame for the current chaos cometh soon. It can play out only a few ways - mostly bad. They'd better take a step back and reassess - while we're still willing to let them play it their way and back them up. Rule of Law, boys. No exceptions. Enforce it mercilessly.

#2 I never understood by the overstuffed Shi'ite butcher, Moqtada al-Sadr was allowed to continue with his gang of killers of American troops.

#3 his time should have been up

I had the exact same exasperated thought reading this. I'm torn between thinking if you just get rid of him his followers will go get a real job - and - fearing that will just make him a martyr. Look at the Chechen butchers - they were turned into martyrs even after Beslan.

maybe it's best to give this guy just enough rope to hang himself.

#4 He's riding the fact that his father was a revered scholar. My guess is that's the only reason he hasn't been sent to the boneyard yet.

#9 it would be cooler if Tater died of a heart attack after a pork barbeque lunch

#10 MWH: Better yet, it would be better if he didn't know it was pork until someone told he right before he died.
