Source in the Sadrists: Maliki seeks to get rid of our leader

[Everett]

Al-Sadr sounds like he's supporting economic reform, and wants it Now! He knows all too well the corruption of many political sects. He wants Daash/ISIL eliminated, as we all do! He is their cleric, and apparently there's been death threats against him. Most of us might think he's the next bad guy? It's most likely he just wants stability, peace, prosperity for the people, and foreign forces to leave, no doubt. We will keep most likely around 30 thousand American soldiers in Iraq, once Daash/ISIL is defeated which will be hopefully by end of April. Then all Iraqi's prosperity should take off like a Rocket!
