Training ISF

Gen. Abizaid wants to prioritize training Iraqi Security Forces at the expense of creating security and stability with U.S. Troops? (See my YouTube comment and Abizaid's testimony here) Ok, so how are things going in this realm? I missed this Washinton Post article until Dr. Barnett linked to the story:

In dozens of official interviews compiled by the Army for its oral history archives, officers who had been involved in training and advising Iraqis bluntly criticized almost every aspect of the effort. Some officers thought that team members were often selected poorly. Others fretted that the soldiers who prepared them had never served in Iraq and lacked understanding of the tasks of training and advising. Many said they felt insufficiently supported by the Army while in Iraq, with intermittent shipments of supplies and interpreters who often did not seem to understand English.
