#1 this looks big. Al-Sadr finally made his move, and lost. Sistani and Hakim can't leave him be any more, they have to finish the job.

#6 "Sheik Jamal was arrested by the infidel American forces," the flyers said. "We warn the American forces and the Iraqi police of continuing to detain him ... we will respond to this dirty act with all our might."

In the long run, our guys will roll right over them. In the short run, look for these palookas to set up temporary alliances with Saddam (and anybody else who's interested) - he provides the cash and supplies the weapons from his numerous caches, while they carry out the attacks.
