The 126,000 members of the Police Federation, which represents rank and file officers, have voted against proposed changes to their pay and conditions by a majority of 10-1.

WASHINGTON — U.S. troops in Baghdad will increasingly focus on training the Shiite-dominated special police forces, a top U.S. commander in Iraq said Friday, reflecting efforts to quell ongoing friction among the country's ethnic factions.
He said the training focus can shift to the police because the Iraqi army is growing in size and becoming better able to operate independently of U.S. forces.
Iraqi police control just 10 percent of Baghdad, he said, adding that one 10-member U.S. team is assigned to each Iraqi special police battalion, which means about 50 U.S. troops are working with each of the special police brigades.
