So then the Neo-Con Plan can go after Iran, we all know this.
Combine it with ZNN prompting the "Blame Iran" at every turn, and I've had it!!!

"Unrest resurfaces in Sadr City; Truce jeopardized in showdown between militia, Iraqi forces" by Hamza Hendawi and Qassim Abdul-Zahra, Associated Press | March 27, 2008
BAGHDAD - Shi'ite militiamen are everywhere. Police and Iraqi Army checkpoints are nowhere in sight. US soldiers are keeping their distance.
Sadr City, the Baghdad nerve center for the powerful Mahdi Army, is suddenly back on edge as the militia leader, Moqtada al-Sadr, and Iraq's government lock in a dangerous confrontation over clout and control among the nation's majority Shi'ites.
Like this operation wasn't planned, I mean, c'mon!!!
The epicenter of the showdown has been the southern oil hub of Basra, where clashes have claimed dozens of lives this week and Sadr's forces face a deadline tomorrow to surrender.
Yeah, somehow those Shia Muslim or Palestinian lives fail to garner or command the same amount of attention from the Zionist press as western or Jewish victims.
I get tired of that, too!!!!
But a more finely tuned measure of the tensions may be found among the one- and two-story homes and shabby storefronts of Sadr City. As the crisis deepened, the Associated Press toured Sadr City yesterday to observe its rapid swing from relative quiet to a return of the Mahdi Army swagger before the US military troop buildup in Baghdad last year.
Oh, I love this; the A.P says they got a tour.
Uh-huh.
Yeah, it's the Mahdi Army that swaggers.
Good thing American and Israeli troops never do (of course, go to the blogs and you will find that occupations suck).
I get tired of the Zio-prop, readers, and this is only the beginning.
Sadr City - named after Moqtada al-Sadr's father, who was assassinated in 1999 - is seen as critical to the overall stability and security of the capital.
And since Sadr is an enemy of the Zionists, Saddam Hussein's murder of his father and brothers isn't mentioned much -- although the Zionist press raises the dead Saddam all the time.
The selectivity is so strange, or is it not, readers?
A resurgence of Mahdi Army attacks and opposition could roll back the gains that have allowed Baghdad residents to take cautious steps toward normal life and offered Washington hope of accelerating troop withdrawals.
Yeah, like the U.S. INVASION and OCCUPATION had nothing to do with disrupting "normal life."
This is the turn-in of the front-page piece, readers, and I'm already steaming at the propaganda.
But recent days have resurrected old challenges.
Sadr's militia forces, estimated at about 60,000, now seem itching for a fight. The current crisis came to a head over US and Iraqi raids that have detained hundreds of Mahdi Army loyalists even as the group maintained a shaky cease-fire since August - which the Pentagon has credited for helping bring down violence.
Yeah, the current "crisis" was BROUGHT ABOUT BY GOVERNMENT and U.S. attacks on these people!!
But it is Sadr's guys who are "itching for a fight."
Seems like it is USrael that is doing all that lately, with the lying and the war promoting MSM carry out the case!
Aren't these the people we went to "liberate?"
You know, the ones who suffered the worst under Saddam.
Yeah, yeah, I am so tired of it all, readers.
Tired of it, and it just gets worse and worse!
Thank God those bloggers are out there!
The tensions have spilled over into street battles in Basra between Mahdi fighters and Iraqi government forces. Fighting also has flared in other cities across southern Iraq's Shi'ite heartland - where Iran is hedging its bets by supporting factions of the Mahdi Army and its main Shi'ite rival.
Yup, here we go, full Zio-prop op!!!!
Not like the U.S. and Israel ever supports shit like that!!
You see my links above, readers?
Try this one on for size, too: Occupation Iraq: Israeli-Trained Death Squads
Mahdi fighters also are blamed for a series of rocket barrages on the US-protected Green Zone, which was hit again yesterday. The Pentagon appears to want no part of the current troubles. Commanders worry that American troops could be drawn into difficult urban conflict, sapping energy from the fight against Al Qaeda in Iraq and other Sunni insurgents.
I'm tired of the "Al-CIA-Duh" and the lies!!!!
We ain't involved, we are only bombing and helicoptering these places.
US forces have made only sporadic stabs into Sadr City, choosing instead to strengthen a security cordon on the outskirts.
Basically made Sadr City a GAZA-LIKE PRISON then, hunh?
I'm raging and about be sick, readers, and I've only started.
AmeriKa's newspapers suck!
US commanders, meanwhile, have a limited presence in southern Iraq and show no signs of diverting soldiers - as they did in the last major fight against the Mahdi Army in 2004.
But we can fly planes and bomb them, etc, etc.
None of that makes the report though, does it?
"We are a different force than the one you saw in 2004," a senior Mahdi commander said at his Sadr City home.
"We are now better organized, have better weapons, command centers, and easy access to logistical and financial support," added the commander, who spoke on condition of anonymity because he is not authorized to speak to the media.
Squatting on the floor next to two of his fighters, the commander sipped sweet black tea as a US helicopter flew low overhead. A burst of gunfire rang out at one point. Another moment, he listened to the screech of a rocket.
"That's going to the Green Zone," he said.
But what about the helicopter attack?
When one of his fighters left the house, he warned about driving too close to American patrols on the edge of the district - a grid-pattern of teeming streets in northeast Baghdad built in the 1950s to house poor Shi'ite workers.
It was first named Revolution City. Then it became Saddam City. After Saddam Hussein's fall in 2003, it was designated Sadr City after Mohammed Sadeq al-Sadr, whose death is blamed on Hussein agents.
Now it is just blamed on them?
Before the invasion, this was sited as another example of Saddam's vicious dictatorship.
Now it is just blamed on them, as if maybe, you know?
Amazing how history changes to meet the obligations of "enemies" in AmeriKa's Zionist-controlled press.
Amazing!
"Don't be too impressed with what the Americans have. We can still win because we have faith and a just cause on our side," said one of the two militiamen in the commander's home.
Sadr City, home to 2.5 million people, looked like a place bracing for battle.
Bracing for battle? They are UNDER ATTACK!!!
Its streets - normally crowded and noisy - were oddly quiet. Beside the militiamen, only youngsters were out in large numbers, playing soccer on dirt fields. Most stores were shuttered.
The militiamen, some wearing ammunition belts and sporting two-way radios, were out in full force dressed in a ragtag collection of tracksuits, jeans, and pajamas. But they carried the essential firepower for effective street conflict: AK-47 rifles or grenade launchers.
Some stood behind rickety market stands with machine guns perched on top. Snipers took up position on rooftops. Others drove in pickup trucks fitted with machine guns.
How come when the U.S. does this there is never a big, spanking report like this?
Many curbs showed traces of disturbed asphalt - usually a sign of freshly planted roadside bombs. Streets were barricaded by rocks, metal furniture, or burning tires. Lookouts on motorbikes relayed the latest movements of US armor deployed nearby.
Mahdi Army commanders have told the AP that the militia has recently taken delivery of new weapons supplied by backers in Iran.
Now I start REALLY DOUBTING the VERACITY of this "report!"
WHY WOULD THEY SAY THAT?
Even if it were true, WHY WOULD THEY TELL AP THAT?
CUI BONO, readers?
Once again, the Zionist-controlled AmeriKan MSM is SHOVELING SHIT!!!!!!!!
Oh, about those bombs in Iraq: Occupation Iraq: British Bombers
The arsenal, they said, included roadside bombs, antiaircraft guns, and Soviet-designed Grad rockets.
They also said an infusion of cash, also from Iran, helped the militia set up new command centers equipped with Internet-linked computers, fax machines, and satellite mobile phones. They have also received global positioning system devices, they said.
See my above comments, readers.
Why would the y tell AP this.
I mean, I am choking on the Zionist propaganda posing as "news," I really am!!!!
Aides to Sadr in Baghdad insisted the Mahdi Army cease-fire remained in force, but warned of dire results if Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki's government continued its crackdown against Mahdi militiamen. "We are not going to stand by and watch our sons getting killed," Sheik Salman al-Feraiji, Sadr's chief representative in Sadr City, told tribal leaders at a mosque. "You must tell the government that you will disown it if it doesn't stop the operations in the entire south."
Yeah, that is a U.S. puppet regime he is talking about there!!!!
And WHO WOULD STAND BY and WATCH THEIR SONS GET KILLED?!?!
Only ones I can think of are Americans!!!!!
To add to the unrelenting propaganda, this article is opposite the front-pager turn-in prop.
And what do I find.
In the tremendous tradition of Americas Zionist press, I get a totally different article from what is in my paper and on the website.
I am tired of Zionist editing and propaganda, readers.
I can't stand it anymore.
What's with the damn rewrites and reedits?
WHAT THE FUCK are COCK-SUCK BASTARDS FUCKING HIDING, dammit!!!!???
I had to go here to find what I needed.
Why?
"Militiamen Holding Out in Basra Fighting"
"Iraq's prime minister warned gunmen in the oil port of Basra to surrender their weapons by Friday or face harsher measures, as clashes between security forces and Shiite militia fighters spread throughout the south and in Baghdad.
This is the security the surge success brought, huh?
We lost the most American soldiers last year for this?
Despite Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki's ultimatum Wednesday, government troops in Basra were having trouble making inroads into neighborhoods that the radical Shiite cleric Muqtada al-Sadr's Mahdi Army has controlled for years.
Good!!!
Although, you know who will have to do it then -- if Americans aren't doing it already!
Residents spoke of militiamen using mortar shells, sniper fire, roadside bombs and rocket-propelled grenades to fight off security forces.
Good thing security forces aren't armed to the hilt, huh, readers?
But those "terrorists" always are!!!!
A Pentagon official said reports from the Basra area indicate that militiamen had overrun a number of police stations and that it was unclear how well the Iraqi security forces were performing overall. The official spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to discuss the matter publicly.
Al-Maliki, a Shiite, remained in Basra to supervise a crackdown against the spiraling violence between militia factions vying for control of the center of Iraq's vast oil industry, located near the Iranian border.
Aaaaah, yes, control of the oil!!!
THAT'S WHAT THIS IS ABOUT!!!!
The events threatened to unravel a Mahdi Army cease-fire and spark a dramatic escalation in violence after a monthslong period of relative calm.
Street battles that broke out Tuesday in Basra and Baghdad's main Shiite district of Sadr City spread to several other neighborhoods and southern cities, leaving nearly 140 dead, including civilians, Iraqi security forces and militants. That two-day figure was a rough estimate provided by police and hospital officials who could not give a more specific breakdown.
Yeah, and WHO WERE THESE PEOPLE?
Did THEY HAVE FAMILIES?
Will this shit article ever mention this fact again?
This kind of treatment reminds me of just how disgusting the Zio-press is; it reminds me of the references to Palestinian casualties -- including CHILDREN -- in Gaza recently.
When will you learn, 'murka, that Muslim life is not as precious as Jewish or American life?
In Baghdad, 16 rockets slammed into the U.S.-protected Green Zone, the U.S. military said, as the heavily fortified area was hammered for the third time this week.
Was the surge worth it, 'murka?
Is this whole abominable occupation worth it? '
One soldier with the U.S.-led coalition, two American civilians and an Iraqi soldier were wounded in the attacks, it said.
At least 11 Iraqis were killed elsewhere in the capital by rounds that apparently fell short, police said.
Or were killed by U.S. or government fire, right?
Two American soldiers were also killed Wednesday in separate attacks in Baghdad, the military said, raising the overall U.S. death toll since the war started more than five years ago to at least 4,003, according to an Associated Press count.
At this point, I've stopped giving a shit about American deaths.
Americans seem more than willing to tolerate the mass-murdering slaughter of Iraqis based upon lies, and it's been five years now.
But, of course, those American lives are far more important than Iraqi lives.
I, for one, have had
The Sadrists are angry over recent raids and detentions, saying U.S. and Iraqi forces have taken advantage of the August cease-fire to crack down on the movement.
But why should they have a problem with that?
Americans are going to allow themselves to be herded of into detention camps. We put up with the murder of our sons and daughters by standing for this god-awful occupation.
Gees, what a bunch of crazy Muslims, huh?
Just wanting be free, 'eh?
They have accused rival Shiite parties, which control Iraqi security forces, of engineering the arrests to prevent them from mounting an effective campaign after the Iraqi parliament agreed in February to hold provincial elections by the fall.
Ooooooooh, NOW I SEE!!!! Yup, GOT SOME ELECTIONS TO FIX!!!!!!!
Yeah, can't allow "democracy" to flourish in Iraq -- not if the WRONG GUYS are going to win!!!!
I have HAD IT with the SHIT AMERIKAN PRESS!!!!!!!!!!
Anthony Cordesman, an analyst at the Washington-based Center for Strategic and International Studies, cautioned against dismissing those concerns.
"The current fighting is as much a power struggle for control of the south, and the Shiite parts of Baghdad and the rest of the country, as an effort to establish central government authority and legitimate rule,'' he said in an analysis.
That requires BOMBING and KILLING THEM into submission then, huh?
Yup, that is how CENTRAL GOVERNMENTS assert their authority!!!
Of course, that's only OFFICIAL ENEMY CENTRAL GOVERNMENTS, not "democracies," right?
The U.S. military insisted the fight was not against al-Sadr's movement but breakaway factions believed to be funded and trained by Iran, which has denied the allegations.
And the propaganda shit-stream just keeps on flowing.
"This is not a battle against the Jaish al-Mahdi nor is it a proxy war between the United States and Iran,'' military spokesman Maj. Gen. Kevin Bergner said, using the Arabic term for the Mahdi Army. "It is the government of Iraq taking the necessary action to deal with criminals on the streets.''
Bergner is the official disinfo agent in Iraq.
Now even this next paragraph was removed, so now I really smell a stink!
President Bush told the Times of London yesterday that the Iraqi government's decision to "respond forcefully" was a "positive moment in the development of a sovereign nation that is willing to take on elements that they believe are beyond the law."
Why would they remove that EMBARRASSING LIE of BUSH, readers?
It's rhetorical' you know the answers!
Yeah, 140 dead, chaos and violence, yeah, that's a POSITIVE in this NUTCASE'S MIND!!
Did this guy ever meet a mass-murder he wasn't in favor of?
As for elements above the law and the criminality, it's a good thing shit-chewing 'murkns don't care about that, otherwise we'd have helicopter gunships leveling the White House and Congress!!
Lotta WAR CRIMINALS THERE!!!!
There is minimal U.S. presence in Basra, Iraq's second-largest city 550 kilometers (340 miles) southeast of Baghdad.
Sounds like a surge is needed!
British forces turned over responsibility for Basra to the Iraqis in late December but say they will assist the Iraqis upon request."
I though the Brits were supposed to be leaving.
Not now, I guess!
CUI BONO?
Meanwhile, I heard this morning that the U.S. killed 5 in Tikrit, an oil pipeline was blown up:
"Many Iraqi civilians are feared dead following a US bombing of the town of Hilla. Witnesses have given conflicting accounts of between eleven to sixty casualties and scores more wounded. The Pentagon says US helicopters were providing air support to Iraqi troops fighting Shia forces as part of the nationwide crackdown on Muqtada al-Sadr’s Mahdi Army. The attack follows another US strike that killed at least five civilians in the town of Tikrit. A relative of the victims said his family members had been burnt beyond recognition.
Relative: “Those are five members from my family whom I should recognize. It was so hard for me to recognize them, as the bodies were charred. This is the American democracy. This is the human rights that Bush has called
for.”
At least three homes were hit in the US attack. Meanwhile, in Baghdad, residents are accusing US forces of setting fire to a popular market in the sprawling Shia neighborhood of Sadr City. On Wednesday, hundreds of demonstrators took the streets to protest the blaze and the ongoing US-Iraqi fighting with the Mahdi Army. Elsewhere in Baghdad, at least one civilian was killed and another five wounded when a mortar round hit a residential area.
Resident: “What did we do? Where shall we go? We are staying as we are displaced family in this place. We do not know where we shall go now. If we go to the place that we were living in before, we will be killed, and here we have been attacked by mortar shells. Where shall we go? We have children and families. This is unacceptable.”
Oil Rises to $107 a Barrel After Pipeline Attack
Meanwhile, one of Iraq’s main oil pipelines was blown up Wednesday, leading oil to rise above $107 a barrel. Basra oil exports will be cut by one-third."
So how come the Zionist press didn't tell me all this?
Things moving so fast I can't keep up.
I'm only one person with zero resources except my own time and will, folks!
Sorry, I'm only trying to contribute as best I can.
