Yes.. we know Turkey would be unhappy .. The author covers it Thoroughly in the article.
But it would SOLVE more problems than it creates.

Most of the Problems are from the fact that there are 3 distinct peoples in Iraq who just want to run their own Business, and not be run by the other two.

Not to mention the USA would get a friendly ally in the middle of a hostile Arab world.

If you think all the unrest in Iraq right now is related to 'holding Iraq together', you're welcome to that opinion. The truth is, that it isn't.

No matter the make-up of Iraq, the Iranians and the Syrians cannot allow a single state to pop up with true republican principles at play.

Self determination is something that will be met with hostility where-ever it is tried. Whether it's one state, three states or ten states, it will NEVER be a smooth effort.

As it is we will have a good ally when this is all over. Afghanistan is an ally. Iraq will be as well.
