[...] He thought that if he ran and hid in Iran, (layed low) that the Iraqi forces with the US and coalition forces would clear areas then move on, but he underestimated General Petraeus and his new strategy and instead the General has our forces clear the area, then introduced our forces to the population as their new neighbors….. and we stayed to keep it clear.

Brave Al-Sadr Ran away…

Brave Al-Sadr ran away.
Bravely ran away, away!
When danger reared its ugly head,
He bravely turned his tail and fled.
Yes, brave Al-Sadr turned about
And gallantly he chickened out.
Bravely……

Sadr is running away from the Christians! Sadr will not face the Christians in battle! He leaves the battle to others! He trembles in fear at the mere thought of the Christian gathering to destroy his great army! Sadr is a coward! He is in Iran, the domain of cowards! He is not a leader, he is a coward!

We need to broadcast this message over Iraq and Iran 24/7.

Iraq’s borders will be closed in the next few days, but I’ve got a hunch that order doesn’t apply to Sadr.

Can anyone take this serious when the USA borders are open and the president is not backing those who patrol the border?

Mookie is a coward. He’s afraid that there is a JDAM with his name on it. Probably a valid fear, IMHO. So, while he runs and hides in Iran, we have the opportunity to dismantle HIS militia, As somebody noted, he is no longer the “strong horse,” but the “weak” one. And this is our chance to destroy his militia (and him when he returns).

There once was a man named Muqtada
Who wanted to start Intifada
Not much of a man
He fled to Iran
We’ve not killed him yet… but we oughta

Well now, Al-Sadr has fled to Iran to protect the family jewels.

When push comes to shove, they’ll find they are only rhinestones.

Sadr’s out of town? Hmmm… he should be careful. I understand that the Iraq/Iran border has all kinds of unexploded ordinance leftover from the Iraq-Iran war.

It would be a pity if something were to… happen… to him.

Cryin shame it would be… savy?

Since December, hundreds of Mahdi fighters have fled to Iran – following their nominal leader Muqtada al-Sadr, who is in Qom. More than 1,000 others have been killed or captured.

See there, all you wannabe jihadis? The mighty sadr and his simperingly weak army slinking off to iran at the mere threat of stepped up actions in Iraq.

They sure made us burn in the fury of the islamic fury, didn’t they?

They expect you to sacrifice yourself for allah, but they run away and hide, don’t they? Surely the mighty sadr would not do such a thing, would he?

allah will surely punish his impudence, won’t he?

What if this surge thing actually works? The dems currently bleating like sacrificial lambs in congress are gonna look awfully cowardly, aren’t they?

The facade is cracking. And it’s about damned time.

even an idiot like me has been calling it for months.

Heh, such ‘idiocy’ – wish we had it by the bushel, or the barrel, or in the millions of whatever unit one prefers.

This has just made Iran more ‘nucular’.

Good, let ‘em all flee to Iran. On the way let’s set up some spec ops nasty boys to kill a bunch of ‘em before they make it back to the hornets’ nest.

If he’s running away, he’s a terrorist. If he’s moving deliberately… he’s a disciplined terrorist.

Yeah, let’s secure the peace in Iraq, so everyone can start birthing the mujahideen of 2030. If our wars are insufficiently deadly, I think we’re hurting ourselves in the long run.
