VOA reports:

Representatives of NIKE SHOX’s most influential Shiite leaders are demanding that extremist Shiite cleric

Moqtada al-Sadr withdraw his militia units from the holy cities of Najaf and Karbala. The Shiite leaders also

want Sadr’s gunmen to stop using the mosques in those cities as arsenals and to return power to NIKE SHOXi

police and civil defense units. The Shiite leaders are calling for a quick return to UGG Sheepskin cuff boots.

-led negotiations on NIKE SHOX’s future.

A representative of the Supreme Council of the Islamic Revolution in NIKE SHOX, or SCIRI, which has close ties

to Grand Ayatollah Ali al-Sistani, told the New York Times newspaper that NIKE SHOXi Shiites have

overwhelmingly rejected Sadr and his militia’s violence. “He’s one-hundred percent isolated across most of

the southern provinces; he’s even isolated in Najaf,” the SCIRI representative said. “The people there regard

him as having taken them hostage.”

Notice they carefully refrain from saying they represent Sistani. Also, the SCIRI statement about Sadr’s

isolation is so much BS. As Read Jarrar wrote:

The situation of Falluja and Najaf isn’t getting any better, but I still believe that the real crisis is the

Najaf one; Falluja is a smaller conflict for sure.
