SHI'ITE militants fought US and Iraqi forces around Baghdad's Shi'ite district of Sadr City yesterday despite a call for calm by anti-American cleric Muqtada al-Sadr following the assassination of one of his top aides.
At least 13 Shi'ite militants died in the clashes which erupted on Friday night. Iraqi police reported seven civilians were killed as a result of the fighting between US and government troops and al-Sadr's Mahdi Army militia.

Al-Sadr blamed the Americans and their Iraqi allies for the assassination on Friday of one of his top aides.

Dáithí,

Feb. 13, 2008 - Imad Mouhniyah killed in bomb blast in Syria, Israel and US blamed.

April 13, 2008 - Top al-Sadr aide Riyadh al-Nouri killed, Israel and US blamed.

And they say that there is no good news anymore!

Why don't these belly-crawlers realize that the entire world hates them and that their own neighbors and 'co-religionists' are just as likely to blow them up or shoot them as anyone else is?

- And rightfully so, of course! ;)
