Sorry to dash all their hopes. There'll be geographic states, not ethnic, and no enthnic armies. Thus the cries of the Iraki Opposition in Exile.

I agree. If we can establish a non-aggressive state in Iraq, it will make everyone more satisfied. Maybe even the Kurds.

At some point, I expect France/Germany may try to make trouble by advocating an independent Kurdistan. They might think it is in their financial interests to do so. Fortunately, they don't have enough military to make it fly. But they can make trouble.
