20. It's not revolutionary and it's not his, but...
it's just another bad idea put out some time ago.

Problem is, there are no good ideas so this bad idea isn't any worse than a bunch of other bad ideas. Division might mean the oil goes to one group, the Kurds cause more trouble in Turkey now that they have their own country, and the Shiites get closer to Iran.

But, the Kurdish problem might resolve itself with a real Kurdistan, the Persians in Iran don't want too much to do with the Arabs in Iraq, and an equitable sharing of oil revenues could be possible.

So, is this any worse than any other scenarios out there?
