Shi'ites to Aussies: Go home.

Why do I get the feeling that eventually it'll be just US forces facing off against Iraqi citizens?

THE chief lieutenant of radical Shiite Muslim cleric Moqtada Sadr today called for Australia to withdraw from Iraq.

The chief lieutenant of Sadr, Imam Amer al Hussani, said the coalition forces should immediately withdraw and return Iraq to local control.

"The Saddam regime (is) gone and ... we know how to control our country," he told ABC radio through an interpreter.

"To be here as occupiers, they are not welcome here."
