Sadr Cease Fire Over?

Apparently:

"The cease-fire is over; we have been told to fight the Americans," said one Mahdi Army militiaman, who was reached by telephone in Sadr City. This same man, when interviewed in January, had stated that he was abiding by the cease-fire and that he was keeping busy running his cellular phone store.
As usual, our crack administration is blaming Iran. Of course, never mind that Iran has much closer ties to the current Iraqi leadership than it does al Sadr. Like John McCain, they all wear rags and are pretty much interchangeable.
