Clashes Erupt Between Iraq Shiite Groups

The confrontation in at least five southern cities — involving a radical Shiite leader who led two uprisings against U.S. forces last year — followed the boldest assault by Sunni insurgents in weeks in the capital.

| This was to be expected. Sadr and his gang are going their own way while Sistani supporters are going their own way. They will have to eventually settle their differences, otherwise their supporters will end up killing each other. |
