DoDLive Bloggers Roundtable: Rule of Law Deputy Director Discusses Court System in Iraq

Filed under Bloggers Roundtable {no comments}

U.S. Air Force Maj. Joseph A. Musacchia, deputy director of the Rule of Law Directorate for the Iraq Training and Advising Mission discussed Iraq’s internal security court system during a “DoDLive” Bloggers Roundtable Jan. 7.

“We want the Iraqi people to have confidence in their police force. We want them to be able to maintain their own security internally, within their nation,” Musacchia said. “When they know that their police are being held accountable, through a transparent, accountable and a predictable discipline system — then we have the foundation for any democracy to flourish.”

Joining us on the call were Grim of blackfive, Jarred Fishman of theairforcepundit, and Nick Mottern of consumersforpeace.
