Since the militants got Daash on the significant progress in Iraq in 2014, available to the United States a second chance to work in Iraq and is trying to train the Iraqi army, though it did not succeed in qualifying for the first time when he spent it since 2003 about $ 25 billion, and the result was his withdrawal from the Iraq's northern cities.
In this regard, American officials have recently expressed optimism about the training effort that effort would be to achieve successes by the US to be an Iraqi.
In spite of the health of the United States recent efforts in achieving a few tactical improvements in the Iraqi security forces, but the military effectiveness suggests it is unlikely that a major military successes are translated on the ground against militants Daash.
The main reason behind the basic problems occurring security forces, is the political system in Baghdad, which has little interest in building a neutral army non-sectarian, so that the United States wanted a long creation is far from political clashes, the army and be of clear objectives, namely the fight against militants Daash but failed eventually.
Today America is worried about the erosion of its influence is relatively small in Baghdad , because a large part of that influence ended after the withdrawal of US troops from the country in 2011, and the entry of Iran's role as an alternative sponsor for Iraq.
In Iraq there are 3,500 US troops are divided between their training Iraqi soldiers, as well as consultants and staff. The goal of the trainers is to help the security forces to improve their skills, especially that to be trained US about 25 thousand Iraqi troops soldiers, difficulty lies in how to secure this number, because Iraqi soldiers in the structure of the Iraqi Ministry of Defense, mostly the names on paper, in the sense they're soldiers, and Humayun.
Limited the role of the Americans advisers on formats service-Iraqi army and secure the logistical side, as well as the rehabilitation of air traffic controllers to help the air effort in beating nests organization Daash.
US effort, which was launched last year, which resulted in the training of 13 thousand troops, including battalions belonging to the forces of the Kurdish Peshmerga. Security program the US to help the Iraqi army also included and targets details did not learn by Baghdad until this moment, so most likely, the Iraqi government did not provide a sufficient number of recruits to the United States in order to train them, according to military recently returned from Iraq to advisers.
He says American officials, that Baghdad provided recruits are not a combat experience, stressing at the same time that the recruits were from low military rank, such as chefs and observers of the row of soldiers. In this regard, Gen. Lloyd Austin said in his testimony before the Senate last week, that efforts to train Iraqis slow and this will affect the gains fight against al Daash.
He adds US officials commentators reasons for the failure on the Iraqi side, that the military units that have been trained other is failed the restoration of the city of Ramadi, allowing militants to Daash the opportunity to control the city's mid-year.
