Unfortunately, the Iraqi military is not ready to go, otherwise we would have been out of there by now. Let's face it, the modern middle eastern male is not a good soldier, overall. They are good at blowing themselves up, but not at becoming part of a well-oiled machine, like the US or some asian armies. Based on what I've read from the military people, not the MSM, the quality of the Iraqis as troops is not very good.
