Muqtada al-Sadr

Should al-Sadr's return to Iraq be considered a good or bad thing?

Should al-Sadr's return to Iraq be considered a good or bad thing?

My guess is that he will be a thorn in the side of the new government. He seems quite popular...

Well, you have to remember that there are the Sadrists in parliament ... I believe that his dad, his uncle, his grandfather and someone else if memory serves were all "martyred"

Keep in mind that anyone that resorts to violence instead of peaceful talks will 9 times out of 10 find it hard to change their views or tactics. Him coming back is a bad, very bad thing, especially for a "New" govt that's trying to make peace, or make it look like they're trying to make peace thru back or side deals with one another. IMO i see the country in some years time becoming very unstable and resorting back to their old blood shed warring dayings (sanctorum blood shed)
