WASHINGTON - Anti-American cleric Muqtada al-Sadr fled Iraq for Iran ahead of a security crackdown in Baghdad and the arrival of 21,500 U.S. troops sent by President Bush to quell sectarian violence, a senior U.S. official said Tuesday.

Al-Sadr left his Baghdad stronghold some weeks ago, the official said, and is believed to be in Tehran, where he has family. The official, speaking on condition of anonymity to discuss U.S. monitoring activities, said fractures in al-Sadr's political and militia operations may be part of the reason for his departure. The move is not believed to be permanent, the official said.

Word of al-Sadr's departure coincides with an announcement that Iraq will close its borders with Iran and Syria for 72 hours as part of the drive to end the violence that has threatened to divide the capital along sectarian lines.

OR IS MR. BUSH A DOUBTER, TO SIMPLE TO UNDERSTAND COMPLEX CONCEPTS, AND HAS TO SEE FOR HIMSELF?

"...I think Saddam and the United States very often have a commonality which bonds them together and that is simply this: That without Saddam Hussein, Iraq would disintegrate into several countries and make more trouble for the rest of the Middle East....When the rebellion started against Saddam in 1991, that danger loomed. The United States helped Saddam crush that rebellion...The American administration was afraid that Iraq will disintegrate. They had no plan for what might follow Saddam Hussein. And certainly President Bush was explicit on that subject, saying he did not want to be mired in Iraqi internal affairs--until he was forced into getting into Iraq by television and the pictures of the poor Kurds. And so that rebellion failed...In the case of the United States, there are huge problems that we want to solve before we think seriously of moving him..."

Is anyone else scared that if MA SEN Mitt Romney is elected that the US will become just amother religiously controlled state. The Mormons scare me more than anyother religion because they are SO intent on preaching it to EVERYONE. The mormon religion is nothing more than a really popular cult

P.S. Im not at all religous so im not biased toward any other fairy tales

What is really gong on? Is Iran helping the ant-U.S. insurgency in Iraq? How can we know the truth? U.S. intelligence has been wrong before. And if Iran is helping to kill U.S. soldiers in Iraq, what should the U.S. do in response?

president?
I mean someone as dumb as Steve Martin in "The Jerk" or Peter Sellers as Chauncey Gardner or even Jed Clampett when he said, "If you invest in wheat, you'll make a lot of bread."

Would our country really be that much worse off than it is now?

Her death was a mystery, My mother in law was going to leave my father in law and take my husband with her to colorado when he was 9. One week later she was dead. She said she was going to get groceries and when they found her van her throat was slit and there was a blunt force trauma to the head. They said she died from the seat belt cutting her neck from the impact of hitting the ditch. Her neck was cut from the other way. and she wasn't heading in the right direction of the store. My father in law was never home at night when she was alive and the night she died he was home. After she was dead for only six months he got married again. He bought fancy things a big house new vehicles. When the woman divorced him she got everything, I think because she had something on him. His first two wives died and he collected a lot of money and spent it quick. Is there any way to bring the case back up or get records? How do I get a death certificate also?
