In addition, the Iraqi forces are getting priceless experience in fighting this war. They are out there under the tutilage of US forces, so they are learning how to do it right. When we leave, the Iraqi forces will be the most well trained, able Arab forces in the world.Yes, we're teaching them the "Western way of war." In the long run, that may come back to haunt us. However, in the short run I see no alternative.

Yes, we're teaching them the "Western way of war." We're not teaching them everything, we're just teaching them enough to be the best ARAB troops. They were already feared as the best in the Arab world, now they are an all volunteer force (something no despotic country will ever have in sufficient numbers).
