\_ Thank you for posting this! It was a very interesting essay, and I
wouldn't have seen it otherwise. (seriously)
\_ Will the Shiite dominated regions just break off and join Iran?
\_ Unlikely, IMHO. Why would Arabs would want to be dominated by
Persians, even if they share the same religion? BTW, according to
one of Pentagon's numerous "leaked" plans, a new Kurdish state
will be formed in the Northern Iraq, the Shiite populated south
will become part of Kuwait, and the rest of Iraq will become
part of Jordan ..
\_ PLEASE post a link to these "leaked" plans-- I would almost
support such a plan.
\_ Who gets Baghdad? US?
\_ Which part of "the rest of Iraq" above did you not
understand?
\_ How am I supposed to know Baghdad is not in
Southern or Northern Iraq? It's not like Iraq
is so important I have to know its geography.
\_ Because you're supposed to be a college student and
vaguely aware of these things and capable of looking
them up for yourself. Go back to k-3 if you still
need to be spoonfed. Idiot, you don't belong at Cal.
\_ Highly unlikely that Kurdistan would form unless you want the
US to screw over Turkey, which would lead it to become an
Islamic state and probably increasing tension in the region.
\_ The Kurds aren't getting anything. They'll get fucked as
usual. It doesn't matter much anyway since they're a
bunch of barbarians. Fuck em. |
