Color me somewhat skeptical about this.
January 22nd, 2007 | by Craig R. Harmon |It’s almost too good to be true. It’s not, of course, the whole solution to Iraq but it’s the sine qua non. Al Sadr and his Mahdi Army have been a thorn in our side since day 3 in Iraq. If his militia can be disbanded or neutralized, a very big if, it will be a big stumbling-block removed. Let’s hope.
Perhaps this is the part that will bring the most skepticism around Bring it On!:
“The Americans don’t act on rumors but on accurate intelligence. There are many intelligence agencies acting on the ground, and they know what’s going on,” said the second official, confirming the Americans had given al-Maliki overwhelming evidence about the Mahdi Army’s deep involvement in the sectarian slaughter.
Um, well, I hope that’s the case NOW.
