Haven't we been here before? I recall this subject getting hyped around election time and big surprise that it's coming out again now that Bush has sagging numbers. The US is clearly not seriously pursuing a trained Iraqi military or else we would see a lot more progress and the Iraqis can not be too interested in picking up the military burden because they have to know that once the US troops go, there goes the money and world focus.
The latest "leak" is that US and UK troops will cut troop deployments in Iraq by 1/2 by mid-2006. Uh huh, interesting timing of the "leak" that comes days after the London bombings.
