Hard to imagine the US govt thrilled at Iran helping to train the Iraq military and police. The offer for help was rejected by the coalition govt (which was firmly in our control).
The SCIRI clearly views Iran as brethren.

I realize that US and Iran have different agendas for Iraq and it might get bloody, just pointing out that now it could help US. Even in the long run, making Iraq into a stable Iran-dominated stable semi-democracy could be a face-saving exit for Bush (he has to keep critizising Iran though to not be hit by a boomerang).
