You have trained folks by us, dropping or giving their weapons to Sadr.
You have Iraqi's in the streets in favor of Sadr and his Army.

Rika,
On the surface that seem the case. But Madi is Shia and the current government of Iraq is Shia as well. The Shia are (IMHO) attempting to quell the radicals in their own ranks. This IMHO an indicator that Shia as well as Sunni desire an independent Iraq. Also, the radical Shia Iranians have their bloody hands in this as well. Basra has had plenty of time to reinforce Basra. This has been caused buy political pressure in the UK to pull out. Just imagine what would happen if we just cut out?
