In reality it is yugoslavia and the former ruling triangle is in turmoil and thats where the four provinces reside. Yes the shiaa and kurdish sections are largely pacified. No, there is no certainty that the Sunni triangle will ever be. Mike

PS Can the kurds and shiaa in concert subdue the sunnis after we were to leave. If there are elections, will the new government try to conquer the triangle or move to a three state solution. What will shia and kurds do? Remember border areas are in contention to some extent. The Kurds would try to take Kirkuk and Mosul. (is kirkuk within their sphere already?) and the shiaa will have bagdad where there are many sunnis. There will be fighting on the borders in both places. Mike
