Afghanistan police training

          In a recent article by Laura King in the LA Times entitled "Afghan police recruits to be rescreened; U.S. suspends training ,"  King informs her readers of two purposes in writing this article: 1) explain the "insider shootings" 2) inform readers on the suspended training and new recruits.
            "American special operations forces have suspended the training of new recruits to an Afghan village militia until the entire 16,000-member force can be rescreened for possible links to the insurgency, U.S. officials said Sunday." In King's article, this statement describes the repercussions of an "insider shooting" which has came from several members that have been trained by the U.S armed forces. All trainees must be rescreened before training will begin again. This is schelduled to last almost a month. Even though we trust our "partners" in Afghanistan, we still can not have insurgents with our weapons shooting us with the training we gave them.
          Forty-five NATO service members have either been murdered, or wounded by these new trained insurgents. Therefore this will delay the time of training, the trust between trainer and trainee, and the amount of trainers for them. After the war between countries i understand the tension that will be boiling between officials, yet if one is trying to help another i cannot comprehend the killing that goes on both sides of this arguement. If the war is over why is there still a need to fight?
          Maybe one day there will be actual peace between the east and west, but the training of police officers will impact greatley the control of their government and basicly give Afghanistan a fresh start in the world of Democracy.
