#2 Hundreds of thousands of pilgrims are in southern cities, particularly Karbala, ahead of al-Arbaeen ceremonies this weekend to mark the end of the period of mourning for a 7th-century martyred Shiite saint.

Stick around boys and girls. We'll have lots more martyrs for you to revere in just a few days.

PS: Make sure and get a good close look at those mosques while you're in town. They may not be there when you get back next year.

#3 just wait and see if the iran trys to smuggle forces and weapons in with the pilgrims.

Bush should come out and say we know it is iran behind the recent surge and we hold iran accountable. forget about nukes - if this continues we will go into iran. more likley than not this will end faster than it started.
