Tom & Jerry

"Large scale operations in Maysan haven't even began but the classic game of cat & mouse is already in full swing. Voices of Iraq report that the Sadr head office in Amara, that previously belonged to the Ba'ath Party in Saddam's era, was evacuated and turned over to the local government just hours after Maliki gave a 4 day deadline to the militia in the province and its capital.

The Sadrists claim that they were not "pressured" by the security forces and decided to vacate the building out of their own free will. They claim that because the building belonged to the Ba'ath Party it meant it belonged to the state of Iraq and was vacated on the orders of Moqtada. Instead they have decided to rent a property in the Awasha district in central Amara to use as their office."
