Greyhawk: The other shoe...

In light of the exposure of a significant amount of questionable - if not fraudulent - recent reporting from Iraq, it's worthwhile to acknowledge that there is a bloody battle ongoing there. I know folks here are well aware of that, but I'm actually surprised that so far Sadr's goons haven't retaliated in force for the attack last week - while it's possible Maliki might actually have him under a bit of control (they reached some agreements a couple weeks ago, and this attack was probably designed to derail that process) - that may be still to come.
