Al-Sadr Tells Militia to Turn Over Shrine
NAJAF, Iraq - Radical cleric Muqtada al-Sadr ordered his fighters Thursday to hand control of a revered Najaf shrine to top Shiite religious authorities, hours after U.S. forces bombed militant positions and Iraq (news - web sites)'s prime minister made a "final call" for the cleric's militia to surrender.
