BAGHDAD - Iraqi radical the Shiite chief, Moqtada Sadr, shown by the United States to poke violences in Iraq, are in Iran for a short stay and will be back soon in the country, indicated to Thursday to AFP an adviser of Iraqi the Prime Minister, Nouri Al-Maliki.
“A my knowledge, it makes a stay in Iran. It often went to Iran. It is in Iran for a short stay”, declared in AFP Sami Al-Askari by specifying that it “had been officially invited there”.
Tuesday evening, several American chains of television had given a report on the departure for Iran of the chief of the Army of Mahdi, powerful militia Shiite shown by the United States to be mainly responsible for denominational violences in Iraq.
These media bound this departure to the new plan of safety intended to pacify the Iraqi capital.
The spokesman of the American army in Iraq, the general William Caldwell, had Wednesday confirmed the voyage, without wanting to speculate in the reasons of this departure. Two close relations of the Shiite chief had for their part marked which it was always in Iraq.
In its edition of Thursday, the British daily newspaper The Guardian for its part affirmed that the principal chiefs of the Army of Mahdi, taken along by Moqtada Sadr, had taken refuge in Iran to avoid being taken for target by the new plan of safety.

Best to kill him when he is out of the country, in Iran.
Regards.
"It" is in Iran on official invitation. You've got to love these computer translations!
Now we have at least 3 interpretations:
1. "It" fled to Iran to save "its" skin.
2. "It" is chilling out in Najaf.
3. "It" was officially invited to spend some time in Iran.
it- the revolutionary council- iraq franchise went to HQ for instruction and finance....
That is probably about it.
I do put some credibility in the idea that "it" was frightened by the surge and decided now would be a good time for consultation in Iran.
We should kill that bastard as soon as possible, having stupidly not done so when we had the chance.
Kill "it".
Why does the Iraqi govt provide the travel itinerary for this pig . Maybe they can enlighten us as to where and when he will be crossing the border. Who the hells side are these people on .
I think these people know they are being sold out and have chosen to just play out Bushs term and then the Iranians move in
Probably went there to get treatment for his HIV.
