announcement of grand ie toll la who has been a moderating influence who basically said we need a fresh start. let me ask you this question. it s a blunt question. the u.s. trained hundreds of thousands of iraqi security forces, police and military, provided the best reps, spent billions and billions of dollars, did everything possible to give political stability to maliki and his government. there s a few thousand rag tag terrorists come in from syria and they take over a city of 2 million people and the iraqi military flees, they rip off their uniforms and they throw down their weapons? here is the thing many american don t get. i was minister of interior in 2004. the americans put a lot of emphasis on training. but you cannot train people who are unqualified. the recruiting was done wrong.
