Oh fun. Even the handpicked senior officers may be working for/with the insurgents? Great!

Not really the Commander in Cheif.Gen. Talib Abed Ghayib Najm was named to head the National Guard in the Diyala province just two weeks ago, and had not yet been confirmed by the Iraqi Ministry of Defense
It's bad news, but he hadn't even been formally appointed yet so think your title is more than a bit overblown. The idea that we can't count on even nominal allies shouldn't suprise anyone. The Iraqi government appears to be pretty well spineless, it's only natural that the military will take their cue from that.
