We can say this, one can never underestimate Sadr.
And as he has his blueprint and the U.S. its blueprint, we can also deduce these blueprints are oppositional to each other.
Sadr is first and foremost emphatic the 'the U.S. must go', but he also sees the U.S. succeeding at ONLY one of their goals, and that is the building of an outrageously palatial U.S. Embassy, at a cost of 600milion dollars, probably will run to 1billion( all money never ever to see New Orleans along with many many many billions more never to see NOLA, but will go down the moneypits, that is only pouring money into corporate managements huge pockets); and in seeing this palace in the heart of the Green Zone, Sadr can note that to the Iraqi people this is an outrage, a hollow vacuous project worthy of none other than Saddam Hussein and see it thus also is but another stake in the heart of "wins the hearts and minds of Iraqis"(this, of course, always a big lie, because the CIC of this country has no respect for hearts and minds, he but a leader with no loyal following but the walking horror of greed based american imperialists and their corrupt quisling allies.
For all our master strategems, we are losing, it isn't a blood splattered on the wall crushing defeat, but it is a losing, a relentless erosion, where a humiliaing defeat will occur unless america turns up their dark intentions exponentially and commence rampant genocide with WMDs .
If it came to that , this atrocity level raisedto a level even the now blind will have to confront, only the lowest of the low of our citizenry will remain "true to the cause" they being but evil bots waving their american flags, cheerleaders for a greed based imperialism, that drips with the blood of its many crimes.
Americans , i feel, will slowly have a grim reality sink in, and that being the hate quotient for this country since Bush started to become his awfulness is rising rapidly thru out the world.
Why?? Maybe because more and more realize we are an innately a dangerous people on the march.
i ask those that haven't read a later post of mine to put in the search term Kinzer, it leads to a book review of book that is the real history of this country, written by a fine historian, and if unaware of our ugly past, to get the book and read it( and of course, a Pinter search, for his speech, of the crimes of the U.S. over the past 50years, for those that have not done this yet.
So back to the Sadr question and can he outmaneuver and win this brutal battle with an occupational invading force that has violated so many international laws regards occupation, it reveals the disgrace the U.N. has become, this toothless wonder that doesn't now even have false teeth--can Sadr beat our nations dark ambitions?? YES.
You ask will we clean up Baghdad for Maliki, i personally don't think we can clean up Baghdad for anybody.
I think our powers are greatly overestimated.
I will go a step further, it is not i am looking to see how america succeeds in their plans, but as to i am looking to see how america itself, will find ITSELF is the BIG LOSER.
I will close with one point, as i talk with others, and editorials here and there, few get the point of an attack on Iran and how that will whiplash across the face of this country, wounding it deeply.
i don't see the neo-con/neo-libs as sharp wits with winning strategems; i see them as dimwits following a plan that will blow up in their faces, but tragically, as all, the innocent and guilty will suffer----their will be no exceptions except for the outrageously rich that are IN FACT, i stress IN FACT, now stuffing their coffers at a pace never ever recorded in the history of this country.
As i have stated variously before, George Soros, said 3 years ago, we are now, right now, having the greatest robbery of the super rich from the american public in our history, it has shattered the past excesses.
Why is this lust to expand wealth now without bounds.
The super rich KNOW it will take huge sums of cash to secure their remote U.S. hideaways, their private islands, their security forces to guard their older estates.
One reason i have such disdain for the bourgeoisie, is they are SO EASILY flim-flammed by the super tich.
I have lived a complex life so i know the inside world of the super rich, (just my charm i guess got me into the inner sanctums of americas quiet royalty:) so i could see all its rot and emptiness, while acting their act, so they knew nothing of what i felt for them, really.
Now, believe it your not, this all relates back to who will win in Iraq/Iran??
It will not be us, as we will crumble within.
A hard fact most americans can't grasp, if we pre-emptively attack Iran we have committed an ACT OF WAR that gives Iran the right to attack the U.S., via terror attacks within our borders.
The o so quite republican Richard Clark, did in his NYT article, say to attack Iran would be insane; that if you think Al Queda is a threat, wake-up!!! Iran has far far far more greater ability to attack within America than Al Queda could dream of.
We are follwing a brilliant campaign for our OWN destruction, man what fools those that believe the neo-con/neo-libs --just plain damned fools.
So whether we do or don't work to pacify Baghdad, it doesn't matter in the long run.
I am looking at The Big Picture Here.
Barring a coup d'etat of the present blueprinters, we are going down the tubes.
I regret it will afflict the guilty and innocent; but if people fall asleep as their country is stolen, there is a terrible price to pay.
America rants endlesly about regime change, the irony is, down the road, a decade away, perhaps; the regime change will be right here.
One of life's ironies, the middleclass , when the floor caves in, get suddenly VERY RADICAL.
End rambling rap.
Time for Columbo,Sherlock Holmes and Nero Wolfe on the Bio channel:) Later.
