Sistani and Sadr

The two had a meeting yesterday, according to Juan Cole:

The two discussed a wide range of political and religious issues. The meeting was said to be intended by Sistani to "reassure" al-Sadr with regard to Sistani.

Whether this is an ominous sign of Sadr's rising clout or an encouraging sign of a post-occupation Shiite unity I have no idea.
