Stand Down While We Skeedaddle

Moqtada al Sadr announced today that he's going to fall back and have his militia stop fighting. Yeah. Right.

First off, I don't believe anything the guy says. He changes his mind seven times a day so who knows what he'll really do. Even if he does reorganize and redeploy as he promises (in two Friedman Units), it's all in preparation for the battle royal that will ensue when the U.S. leaves .... eventually.
