NATO agrees to begin training Iraqi forces
BRUSSELS, Belgium (AP) NATO nations agreed Friday to begin training Iraqi forces, a NATO official said. No details of the agreement were immediately available.

The official, speaking on condition of anonymity, said an agreement was reached but did not explain how it resolved a dispute between France and the United States over command and control.

Paris had objected to an American general heading the mission.

Secretary-General Jaap de Hoop Scheffer was to brief reporters later on the details.

1. Which side will the "Iraqi forces" be on?
And for how long?

2. They will be fighting for the good guys, of course!
Which side that is remains to be seen.
While Bush runs the show, they will be killing US soldiers
(the heavy-handed occupiers acting with the worst intent toward
the Iraqi people).
Hopefully, Kerry will change that. Perhaps he won't bother.
Time is the revelator.
