I thought we were going to arrest this rascal a couple of weeks ago? The mere fact that he is still sucking air almost suggests the US may have turned him? A lot of good years left in this young man. Maybe this is Americas idea of the future Shah of Iraq?http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&u=/afp/20031105/wl_mideast_afp/iraq_us_shiite_sadr_iran&cid=1514&ncid=1473
BEIRUT (AFP) - Iraqi Shiite leader Moqtada Sadr said there is no political coordination between him and Iran, while also indirectly criticizing anti-US attacks.
"There is no political coordination with Iran's leaders whatsoever," Sadr told the Lebanese daily As-Safir.
"Rumours on the existence of such relation only aim to equate us with Lebanon's Hezbollah (Shiite fundamentalist group), and then point a finger at us so that local and foreign forces turn against us," he added Wednesday.
Iran is a predominantly Shiite country and, along with Syria, is a backer of Hezbollah.
