Would you want to live in a house built by people who had to be taught to use a saw just days before they built it?

To answer your question; No, not especially.

But regarding the news article itself, something that was said about Pfc. Raymond Shehata intrigued me.

“Shehata gained valuable insight into the effectiveness of the training because of his comprehension of Arabic.”

I think humongous insight can be gained into the REAL feelings of these IA Soldiers by Shehata being able to listen to their chatter amongst themselves, understand it, and convey it to anyone in the chain of command who may want to know.

BTW: The article also mentioned Alpena, MI. I have heard that the Alpena area is a big gathering point for Muslims in this Country. FWIW.
