I believe that the Mahdi Army continues to pose a threat," Sen. John McCain said in Arizona last fall. "I believe al-Sadr has to be taken out." John McCain is correct, if the United States wants to win in Iraq we need to take this guy out one way or the other. The Iraq government may give lip service to the United States on controlling al-Sadr but I doubt they are able to handle him because of his political influence. Al-Sadr is the head of one of the militias that is causing so much of the violence in Baghdad.Anyone who is a regular to this blog know that I am a firm supporter of President George W Bush. However, one of the mistakes he has made was not to "neutralize" this guy a long time ago. Where is 007 when you need him.
