Muqtada al-Sadr

What, he's still alive? Getting lazy there, eh?

We just don't feel like blowing up the Shiia equivalent to The Dome Of The Rock.

Good relations, and all that.

No, Bush is "sensitive."

Sadr is not complying and is continuing to make outrageous demands. The Iraqi gov't has sent him an ultimatum.

Hi Azazel, it is good to know I was missed!

How are you doing?

[Az]

Summer break from uni.

[Ned]

Got a job?

[Az]

no, actually. Got some money from tutoring kids during the year, and I living off that. And preparing to repeat exams in late September, and october.

If keeping that mosque is so important, do it the russkii way - gas.

My daughter is in medical school. She goes to school 4 quarters with two or three week breaks between year. No time for jobs in this regime.

When I was going to school, I was able to make my entire tuition at the private U I was attending and still have a good deal of money left over. Times have changed.

BTW, when the news of that World Court decision on the "wall" was announced, I nearly fell off my seat when I read that the court had found that there was "NO" demonstrable security necessity for the wall. Once the court makes such a finding, the rest clearly follows. But the finding itself is so flagrantly biased against Israel as to be beyond acceptability.

I wonder where our great "putative" world leader Kerry is on this decision. I bet he supports it, the fool.

Well, the job market here sucks. I wanted to work in construction, but they need commitment.

Good idea.

Where are the Russians when we need them. Perhaps Putin could be persuaded?

He's both for and against the Israeli security wall. Seriously. I linked to the contradictory statements a while back.
