One result of this may be Kurdish independence.
Another result may be a defacto partition of Iraq into Kurdish, Sunni, and Shia countries. Which was one of the alternatives suggested early on but it wasn’t politically possible at the time. The Kurds have had their defacto autonomy but maybe now is the time to declare it openly.
Or, maybe Iran rolls in and its katy-bar-the-door.
Kurdish independence? I fear Kurdish liquidation. And the Kurds, in general, are some of the nicest people on the planet.
The lottery of birth. I feel sick.
