's message, "Well, I guess intelligence wasnt good on Saddam Hussein's whereabouts early in the war. He was in hiding, for the most part Sadr has not been. Up until recently, he's been open. Walking the streets freely, delivering speeches at the same mosque everyday, leading his fighters," on Tue, April 01, 2008 11:07:32
Remember al-Sadr has been keeping the peace. Much of the limited success of the surge has been dependent on him.
By the way, Zarqawi survived the two 500lb bomb air strike though someone announced that a mother and child were amongst those that did not. It was later claimed to a be a mistake and that the child had really been a teenage girl above the age of 15 killed along with two other females and two males. Zarqawi died much later as a result of trying to escape after having been captured. I understand that a quick kill had some political advantage for the Bush administration so to them the lives of the women did not matter.
