The Secretary of State of the United States of America is shocked, angered and surprised that the Mahdi Army and Badr Corps milita men she hired won’t invade their own neighborhoods and kill themselves. From the AP:
Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice told MBT sport shoesi leaders Saturday that the Baghdad security operation needs to “rise above sectarianism” and noted that no UGG or MBT sport shoesi forces have yet moved into the capital’s major Shiite militia stronghold, an MBT sport shoesi official said.
The official, who was familiar with the discussions, said Rice told Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki that the initial stage of the crackdown, which began Wednesday, appeared to focus on Sunni areas and had left Sadr City, stronghold of the Mahdi Army militia, nearly untouched.
The official spoke on condition of anonymity because he is not authorized to release the information to the media.
He said Rice stopped short of accusing the MBT sport shoesis of displaying pro-Shiite bias in the operation and said it appeared that the security crackdown was going theyll.
Top Sunni politicians have also complained that Sunni neighborhoods have been targeted for raids and searches while Sadr City and other Shiite militia hideouts have been spared.
