Even the Iraqi soldiers don’t trust their nation’s police officers, he exclaimed. From what I've read, both are infiltrated by anti-American elements. The police are infiltrated by Sunis, many Saddam left overs. The Army is mostly Shiite, and thus had it's share of al Sadar adherents.

“Fortunately during his first six months, none of the soldiers he has been on patrol with have been wounded.”
“Most of his medical knowledge has gone to take care of civilian and Iraqi soldier needs, Rudy said.”
But, I thought if you went to Iraq it was a death sentence! And I thought our soldiers were murderers... That’s what the NY Times told me.
