As of Monday (04/07/08) we read that Maliki has demanded that Sadr's Iran-sponsored militia must disband or face annihilation by Iraqi Army forces operating with minimal American participation. Mookie the Wookie's response is a face-saving statement to effect that his Mahdi Army (sic) will de-commission if an appropriate gaggle of Mullahs so desires.
Given clerical mandate, Sadr's force in Basra may well cave to Iraqi vs. American military pressure. If so, Iran will have suffered a setback; Basra will be relieved of Sadr's vigilante terrorists; and Maliki's central government will definitely have enhanced its credibility.
Crocker and Petraeus are due to report developments before Pelosi's wretched Fifth Columnists tomorrow (Tuesday). We guarantee that nothing either of them says will be reported honestly.
