1. Here's the problem: if you think the bottom's out of the tub now . . .
Wait until Kurdistan, the Iraqi Republic, and the Caliphate of Basra start fighting over the oil! The best case is the Kurds extend their influence south to sweep up Mosul and Tikrit, the Shiites in the south are satisfied with the fields in their territory, and the Sunnis and whatnot in Baghdad and Anbar get jack shit and learn to like it.

Is that how it'll play out? I don't think so.
