sadr bloc pulling out of iraqi gov't (al-jazeera):
"We are going to declare our withdrawal from government because the prime minister does not want to make a timetable for the withdrawal of foreign forces from Iraq," one official said.
(...) The move is unlikely to bring down the government, but it could create tensions in the fractious Shia-led coalition. The al-Sadr movement's 30 MPs will continue to attend parliament.
