I’m going to Baghdad next week to embed with the 2/1 Stryker Cavalry Regiment operating in and around Sadr City. The showdown between the Mahdi Army and US and Iraqi government forces is currently the most important story in Iraq being covered (and miscovered) by the mainstream press, and I’d like to provide an accurate, on-the-ground perspective.
You can help out at the link.

“2/1 Stryker Calvary Regiment”, as in the militant wing of the Salvation Army? Or do you mean Cavalry?
Sorry, Kate, I couldn’t resist 😉
I cut and paste from Bill’s email. 🙂 Will fix that… LOL
the mahdi army should be bombed out of existence no matter how much colateral damage is done.
Sorry for the typo Kate, thanks for the support.
