Sounds like a plan.
Heck, you know what my biggest problem with Iraq is? That we stopped beating the snot out of them and went to a "Hearts and Minds" campaign with indecent haste. In the process, we made a hero (and political figure!) out of Al-Sadr. We haven't unleashed our trump card (the Kurds) to scare the Shias and Sunni's shyteless (not to mention the Turks and Iranians).
