First we find out that the war is creating more Islamic extremists and that scandals like Abu Grahib is helping the terrorists in their recruiting efforts. Now pretty soon we're going to find out that we're actually training them.
So now what?

True, Abu Ghraib made a lot of muslims angry, but we don't actually have to do anything wrong to "help" them recruit. The insurgents will always contort the stories to make themselves look better. Our own media helps them much more than their own kind. When a story comes in saying "Five US troops killed", but you have to read into the story to find that there were also 28 civilians killed. The insurgents look like the real holy warriors beating out the "infidels". They don't look like what they really are because nobody sees the other 28 innocent lives taken.

We already have been training them for a long time. Al Qaida was formed, financed and trained by the CIA in Afghanistan in 1981...Bin Laden has been a CIA operative since then...his CIA name is Tim Osmond (google it).
In the early 1960's we had "terrorist training camps" all over the southern US training Cuban exiles to take back Cuba...one of them is on trial now (not for terrorism...for immigration violations) Luis Posada Coralles. He blew up a Cuban airliner in 1978.
Here is an award winning documentary from the 1990's where 5 ex-CIA "operatives" tell all about all of the terrorist acts they have done all over the world...even places we aren't fighting.

leaving there, will have the terrorist following us home. We went there to stabilize the area so we could continue to receive oil. We should have gone 100% ethanol. There are crops that can row outside the food chain and in sandy soil - We need to Detroit to make 100% ethanol cars - and if gas station won't sell the mix have auto dealers sell it and set up a new industry - let Exxon - shell etc stick the oil back into the ground or sell it back to the Arabs

Yes, its true, many of the people the US trains become insurgents. A lot of IED's are found right next to Iraqi Police checkpoints. Also, Al-Sadr directed his militia to join police and military units to recieve training and weapons.

Cut your losses and get out. You can't beat an ideology. For each terrorist you kill 5 will be recruited. This theme is as old as history. This is no "War". Never was. It was a regime change pure and simple. Now it is a mess. Get out.

At some point we may just come to the realization that the Iraqi people have sided with the insurgent/terrorists/militias/whatever and there's not really anyone there to 'liberate.'

The "Iraqi Army" we are training is nothing but a Shiite Death Squad. If and when we leave they will turn fast
