#1 The 33-year-old populist is reaching out to a broad array of Sunni leaders, from politicians to insurgents, and purging extremist members of his Mahdi Army militia who target Sunnis.

Kafkaesque: just as terrorist are now "insurgents" "populist" is the new word for warlord and collaboration w/other terrorists is "reaching out."

#7 Sadr is desperately trying to shed the critical mass of enemies he has accreted since our arrival in Iraq. Someone needs to remind him of the old addage:

FRIENDS COME AND GO BUT ENEMIES ACCUMULATE.

Never is this more true than in the Arab world. Maliki sabotages Iraq from within, Sadr from without. The two of them are millstones around Iraq's collective neck that grind to dust all hope for peace and prosperity. Iraq's sapling tree of liberty needs to watered with their blood.
