Abu Wabu

AJ Strata reports that Moqtada al-Sadr has surrendered after his thugs got their asses kicked by the IMF. American forces provided air support, proving that the IMF can't stand up on their own and that The Surge Has Failed™.

And of course the MSM are also big losers in the fight. Another demonstration here.

Bill Roggio:

Six days after the Iraqi government launched Operation Knights’ Charge in Basrah against the Mahdi Army and other Iranian-backed Shia terror groups, Muqtada al Sadr, the Leader of the Mahdi Army, has called for his fighters to lay down their weapons and cooperate with Iraqi security forces. Sadr’s call for an end to the fighting comes as his Mahdi Army has taken serious losses since the operation began. . . .Since the fighting began on Tuesday 358 Mahdi Army fighters were killed, 531 were wounded, 343 were captured, and 30 surrendered. The US and Iraqi security forces have killed 125 Mahdi Army fighters in Baghdad alone, while Iraqi security forces have killed 140 Mahdi fighters in Basra.

The mullahs must be fuming.
