In the mean time, though, let's forget about gentlemen's warfar and get down to the serious business of eliminating some of these bad actors. For instance, Muqtada Sadr. He should have been incarcerated or bombed months ago.

Mindmeld, you don't seem to understand that your "bad actor" is a leader and hero to hundreds of thousands of Iraqis. The coalition shouldn't just kill him. Eliminating Al Sadr is like white supremacists trying to get the blacks to calm down by killing Martin Luther King. Things just don't work that way.

We should train Iraqis to do civil defense, and for every three of Iraqis that get trained, one of the coalition should leave the country. If that math doesn't work, nothing is going to work.
