44 percent of the American people want US troops brought home now.

"I call upon the American people to stand beside their brethren, the Iraqi
people, who are suffering an injustice by your rulers and the occupying
army, to help them in the transfer of power to honest Iraqis."  Muqtada Sadr

The press constantly harps on the theme of the danger of civil war (between
Sunnis and Shiites). The reason for this is clear: it is meant to justify
the continued occupation of Iraq. "If we withdraw, there will be civil war!"
they say. What they do not say is that they have been constantly playing up
the differences between different religious and national groups in order to
increase their own power and present themselves as the arbiter between them.
