Najafis Against Sadr

Reuters reports that "Hundreds of Iraqis marched in Najaf Tuesday calling on militant cleric Moqtada al-Sadr to withdraw his fighters from the Shi'ite holy city." The news service called it "the biggest and most public display yet of mounting local exasperation" with Sadr. There was a smaller anti-Sadr demonstration in Najaf on Monday; a bigger march is planned for Friday.
