A May 11 truce that ended seven weeks of fighting in Sadr City appears too fragile to endure with al-Sadr followers charging that Iraqi Army troops are violating its terms and complain of their heavy handedness. Dissent within the Mahdi Army over the cease-fire also threatens a potentially dangerous rift within the Sadrist movement. From AP Photo by KARIM KADIM.
