Trash disposes of itself in Iraq

Cabinet ministers loyal to radical Shi'ite cleric Muqtada al-Sadr resigned from the government of Nouri al-Maliki in Iraq today.

And yesterday, the number of murdered bodies in Baghdad went up dramatically, and al-Sadr's Mahdi army is the chief suspect in the killings.

Good riddance to those cabinet members, Iraq is better off now they're out of the government, even if al-Maliki's government falls as a result.
