US advisers have little to work with in Iraq

Washington Post:

Iraq rattled by army deserters, analysts say 

Even as U.S. advisers deploy, the "psychological collapse" of the local military offers little hope that territory can be quickly reclaimed from militants.
I think it will take more than a few hundred advisers to rehab this demoralized force.  They will also have to deal with the challenge of the Sadr militia that threatens to shoot them in the back.
