Najaf, Sadr City, Folly

Just as an FYI to regular readers: I got caught up in events in Iraq today, but began collecting everything in a diary entry over at Dkos. There was too much, I felt, going on to keep cross-posting here and there, and making either worthwhile.

I decided to keep that thread going to keep track of the day's events, and I'm updating it even now. I do encourage y'all to check out the diary for now, but I'll be back here with a more in-depth analysis of it all a little later on.
