The problem is that it is not in our interest to assist the democratic majority in that manner.

Of course not.. It should never be our goal to create a "tyranny of the majority". Any policy we pursue must include finding a legitimate and non-violent manner through which Sunni and Kurdish interests are represented.

There's a fine balance of power that must be sought after in Iraq, where all rights are respected and conflicting interests are resolved peacefully.

But that is not the interest of countries such as Syria and Iran, who seek to maintain turmoil via proxy entities such as the the Badr Corps/SCIRI on the part of Iran, and Al Qai'da and 'Umar Brigade, on the part of Syria and the FRE.

Won't happen

I sincerely hope that you are mistaken.
