Friends,Now Sadr wants the government to quit it's attacks on the Shiia militias or......he will really get mad and start a bigger, badder war. Is there any faction that our soldiers are not fighting? Five years and four thousand American deaths and we don't even know who we are fighting today. Bring our troops home!
Love and Peace,

"In a statement brimming with his most bellicose language in months, Sadr said he was issuing a "final warning" to the government to end the campaign against Shiite militias that has cost hundreds of lives since it began last month. If not, Sadr said, he would declare an "open war until liberation."'
'The threat of Shiite-on-Shiite violence came as the Sunni insurgent group al-Qaeda in Iraq called for a new, month-long wave of attacks on U.S. forces and their Iraqi allies."
"Sadr's statement Saturday, however, made it clear that tensions between Sadr and Maliki are about to reach a head."
"This is the very last threat," said Salah al-Obaidi, a top aide to Sadr."
