An Iraq Solution

Following Sen. Joe Biden’s proposal to divide Iraq as a solution to our problem-war in Iraq, I suggest a slightly different division, following Al Franken’s idea. Franken says make it Shiastan, Sunnistan and Kurdistan. Not so crazy. Then I would say divide the Baghdad zone into four sectors just as was done after WWII in Berlin, where there were four sectors, English, French, Russian, and American. Shia, Sunni, Kurd and one common sector in the middle called Parliament. The three could be drawn to point to the center. It’s not like that country has never been partitioned before. (I do not view this as a wild-hair idea.)
