One Phone Call to Tehran

I'd guess that Iran just lost an important asset:

An Iraqi official says U.S. forces have arrested Ali al-Lami, a top Shiite in charge of keeping senior supporters of Saddam Hussein out of the government.


We suspect him of being responsible for a Baghdad bombing that killed four Americans and six Iraqis in June.

It is important that we continue to target both Sunnis working for al Qaeda or the Baathists and Shias working for the Sadrists or Iranians so that nobody feels unjustly picked on.
