Pentagon report - al Sadr - not al Qaeda - is the greatest threat in Iraq

Just like Bush let bin Laden get away, Bush has given a free pass to al Sadr time after time. I don't know if it's because Bush doesn't have the stomach for it, if his botched Iraq strategy has made it impossible for the military, or if he's just plain stupid, but the fact remains that Bush has failed miserably to reign in a deadly and dangerous person in Iraq. Why does Bush continue to give in to terrorists who are killing Americans?

Shiite Muslim cleric Muqtada al-Sadr's Mehdi Army has replaced al Qaeda in Iraq as "the most dangerous accelerant" of the sectarian violence plaguing Iraq for nearly a year, according to a Pentagon report.

Attacks by Iraqi insurgents and sectarian militias jumped 22 percent from mid-August to mid-November, and Iraqi civilians suffered the bulk of casualties, according to the quarterly report released on Monday.
