Bremer said he won't tolerate what he called al-Sadr's attempt "to establish his authority in the place of legitimate authority."
Bremer was speaking a day after running battles between al-Sadr's militia and U.S.-led forces in Baghdad and Al-Najaf killed nine foreign troops and at least 21 Iraqis.
The British Defense Ministry today said members of al-Sadr's militia "peacefully" took over a government building in the southern Iraqi city of Al-Basrah overnight.
AFP reported, however, that armed militants stormed the building and raised a green flag on the roof.
The U.S. military today said a U.S. soldier died in roadside bomb attack yesterday in the northern city of Mosul.
