This is ridiculous corruption. There is obviously no need to fly Afghans all the way to the US for training. Some Americans are making money off of this.

The prevalence of this group to abandon training posts is "particularly alarming," the report said, given the officers' important role in maintaining the overall readiness of the Afghan military. Yeah, thats my concern too.

While I am not saying this is not a problem, it has been happening for years. Officer from Muslim countries think they are superior to their infidel trainers. So when they attend Military schools here, they do what they want. Saw it first hand with Saudi and Iraqi Officers at Fort Leonard Wood. They don’t show up for a few days. Turns out they went to KC or St. Louis.

It is conventional wisdom in Afghanistan that people will likely try to flee if they are allowed to travel to Western countries.
The Government there looks carefully before allowing an individual to travel, because they expect many to jump ship.
This is not something new, and likely not a particular security threat. It is just because Afghanistan lacks opportunity, and has extraordinary security risk for those living there.

Hint: Check the nearest strip club. No problem with finding them there.
