Sadr boogies out of Baghdad

Gateway Pundit:

Anti-American cleric Muqtada al-Sadr fled Iraq to Iran two weeks ago anticipating the US surge in Baghdad:

Anti-American Iraqi cleric Muqtada al-Sadr, leader of one of the nation's most powerful militias, has fled to Iran, Cable News Network reported Tuesday evening, citing senior U.S. administration sources.

According to CNN, al-Sadr left Iraq two to three weeks ago, the sources said.

Al-Sadr is fearful for his life as the U.S. troop surge approaches, according to the sources cited by CNN. The report also said the sources are reporting "fractures" in al-Sadr's group.
ABC says he is concerned about JDAM's dropping in uninvited....

...

Captain's Quarters wonders how Pelosi and pal Murtha will explain this one as they vote to surrender.
This is evidence of how fragile these organizations are. It is also evidence of how easy it is for weak thugs like this to panic Democrats. Sadr knows that he cannot defeat US troops and that with Iraqi troops taking over Baghdad his game is over. Since the announcement of the surge there has been abject panic by two of the competing forces al Qaeda and Sadr's militia. I guess that is why Democrats are so desperate to surrender. They are afraid we might win before they get the defeat they have been hoping for.

Perhaps he can get some dental work done while he is visiting in Iran.

Washington Post: Some Democrats eye adding more justices to the Supreme Court to change its ideological bent The once-remote idea has gained the attention of liberals angered by the GOP push to remake the federal courts. Probably the easy way to defeat this court-packing scheme is for Trump to propose doing the same thing now.  It would lead to Democrat denunciations and claims that it would be wrong, thereby blowing up any attempt by them in the unfortunate event of Democrats winning a presidential election.

Is the F-35 obsolete?

Headline USA: Pentagon Fires Back after Musk Calls Its Most Expensive Project ‘Obsolete’ 'Yeah, as I'm sure you can appreciate, Mr. Musk is, currently, a private citizen, I'm not going to make any comments about what a private citizen may have to say about the F-35....'   ... ... Drones appear to be replacing jets for many operations.  The Russia-Ukraine war is an example of that.  Drones are often hard to detect and can be used for intelligence operations as well as for attacking enemy targets.  It would not surprise me to see drones engaging other drones in combat.  They also cost much less than manned fighters.
