Sounds like a deal the GOP/NRA wing could support.
1. Withdrawal of all Iraqi and foreign forces from the city, after which al-Sadr's militias will pull out of Najaf.
2. Najaf to be run by the Marjayia religious authority - with no one else having any authority there.
3. Us/Iraq give up on disarming al-Sadr's militia, known as the Mahdi Armyal-Sadr's militia, known as the Mahdi Army.
4. The Mahdi Army to be recognized as an ideological movement with the right to carry weapons for self-defense.
