Radical Shiite cleric Muqtada al-Sadr, leader of anti-Americaan militias & death squads, has returned to Iraq. "US officials say they are hopeful that the reappearance of radical Shiite cleric Muqtada al-Sadr (mook-TAH'-duh ehl SAH'-dur) signals that he wants to "play a positive role in Iraq."

A National Security Council spokesman says al-Sadr has a chance to be a part of the country's political reconciliation process, but says everyone will have to wait and see if he and his followers participate."

Now there is a crock. Al Sadr has hated the US presence in Iraq from day 1. His reappearance means nothing but possibly more damn grief for our soldiers. This is called the " spin" from the administration. Al Sadr loyalists left the parliament over a month ago and have not returned. They are not among the mojority of the members who already expressed a desire for us to leave.
