Bush to give go/no go decision on Najaf
I hope he's on the phone to Sistani.... Anyhow, we're dug in around the holy city of Najaf back):
So, when Bush says the generals told him to go in, he's lying (as usual). Watch for it...
Senior officers say the order to attack Najaf will be made "at the very highest levels of the U.S. government," an indication that President Bush may have the final word on whether soldiers here fight, or keep on waiting.
