If it’s published in a public format, it’s not a “secret.”

Secret? I can’t think of a single person who doesn’t want a “final” solution for this satanist.

“The attempted assassination or abduction took place two-and-a-half years ago in August 2004 when Mr Sadr and his Mehdi Army militiamen were besieged by US Marines in Najaf, south of Baghdad.”
Boy, this clown is Johnny on the spot with current info.
The way this began sounded as if this were a NEW SECRET plot. This is OLD news - as well as common knowledge in this neck of the woods.

Yeah, because before this ‘secret’ plot, Sadr loved the U.S. and liked to watch reruns of Baywatch.

Secret Plot to Kill The Leader of the Democrat Party - Sadr
Although Mr Sadr escaped with his life at the last moment, the incident helps explain why he disappeared from view in Iraq when President George Bush stepped up confrontation with him and his Mehdi Army militia in January.
Dr Rubai'e said: "I know him very well and I think his suspicion and distrust of the coalition and any foreigner is really deep-rooted," and dates from what happened in Najaf. He notes that after it had happened Mr Sadr occupied the shrine of Imam Ali in Najaf as a place of refuge. Dr Rubai'e had gone to Najaf in August 2004 to try to mediate an end to the fighting. He met Mr Sadr who agreed to a set of conditions to end the crisis. "He actually signed the agreement with his own handwriting," said Dr Rubai'e. "He wanted the inner Najaf, the old city, around the shrine to be treated like the Vatican."
Having returned to Baghdad to show the draft document to Iyad Allawi, who was prime minister at the time, Dr Rubai'e went back to Najaf to make a final agreement with Mr Sadr.
It was agreed that the last meeting would take place in the house in Najaf of Muqtada's father Mohammed Sadiq al-Sadr who had been murdered by Saddam's gunmen with two of his sons five years before. Dr Rubai'e and other mediators started for the house. As they did so they saw the US Marines open up an intense bombardment of the house and US Special Forces also heading for it. But the attack was a few minutes premature. Mr Sadr was not yet in the house and managed to escape.
2004???? what has happened to attempts in 2005, 2006, 2007 etc...

We had our chance a couple years ago, and the decision I’m sure was made to let him live “for stability reasons”. What a tactical blunder. We don’t want to whip these people up! We can reason with him! Yeah, that will work while he was on Iran’s payroll the entire time.
