Al-Sadr A Thorn In Our Sides Yet Again

Now he's calling for protests to mark the anniversary of Baghdad's fall. While peaceful protests are fine, Iraqi protests almost never turn out that way.

However, Democrats, I want you to read what he says and compare that to your timeline bill that you recently passed and the warnings that President Bush and others have said about that timeline.

"The departure of the occupier will mean stability for Iraq, victory for Islam and peace and defeat for terrorism and infidels."

Now tell me, how is it that giving a timeline for the withdrawal isn't going to be turned into propaganda and embolden our enemies? This man is a leader of a militia that is responsible for bombings and assassinations. He was even wanted for the murder of a rival cleric. So tell me, after he's told you point blank that once we leave it will signal a defeat for "infidels", how will a timeline be in the best interests of our soldiers and the Iraqi people?

Easy. You can't.
