See common sense would lead to that conclusion.. Make 3 countries.. Shiite, Kurd, and Sunni. Problem with that is 1) the rest of the world wouldn't go for it (but when was that ever a problem)
2) the surrounding countries would be majorly pissed because their Kurd/shiite populations would be destabilized.

The rest of the world is incapable of either shitting or getting off the pot; and if it would bother Iraq's neighbors, good. I think they deserve to twist in the wind for a while, and I believe all of them have abused the Kurds for a few centuries, so why not let them worry their little weenies for a while?
