Noting that Moqtada al-Sadr, the powerful Shiite leader, has called on the mostly Shia Iraqi army and police to "turn all their efforts" to the US Military, the Young Turks discuss the worse and worser potential future for the U.S. occupation.

That announcement was made just a day after John McCain observed that: "Extremist Shiite militia leader Moqtada al-Sadr is in hiding, his followers are not contesting American forces."
