Mainstream media over the past few days have written ominous stories about the disgusting, hateful Muslim Cleric Muqtada al-Sadr and his thugs called the Mahdi army. Al-Sadr is a Shiite with close ties to the Iranian Mullahs, who helps supply him with deadly weapons for use against the Iraqi government and American troops.

His militia has raised a lot of hell and killed a lot of people, including Cindy Sheehan’s son, Casey, and Casey’s good friend, Justin Johnson. He fights like cowardly terrorist. But this week the Iraqi Army took it to al-Sadr’s killers.

Michelle Malkin has the story here.

The Iraqis and Americans need to stop acting like al-Sadr is a reasonable politician. He is a two-bit thug.

I recently spoke with an American contractor who worked around Sadr City. The United States is paying for work inside the sprawling slum, yet we have no oversight there. Americans are not allowed inside Sadr City, so our contractors hire Sadr residents to do the work. Americans have no idea if the work is being finished inside the walls of al-Sadr’s fiefdom, or if the money is being used for other items, according to this contractor.
