>>>PT.. you're giving 80% of the country's oil reserves to a completely Shi'a led government the S. East part of Iraq, and forcing the Kurds to share their 10-15% with the Sunnis of the Anbar province...<<<

You have to read what I wrote again, maybe study it a bit more closely. Three issues, according to my plan can be solved:

a) an independent board of five southern and five northern representatives, together with five pan-Arab representatives become an oversight board to distribute the oil evenly between the two new countries;

b) the riverways become international waterways, again adminstered by a board of some kind; and,

c) Access to the Persian Gulf ports (albeit a tiny sliver) is provided to the northern nation.

Hey, I'm not an expert--but at least I've come up with a building block.
