The unity of Iraq is currently at stake and many distinguished observers and commentators believe the country is heading for a sooner-rather-later break-up, and since Southern Kurdistan is part of Iraq it is the favoured to be the first part of the country to gain independence and consequently become an international person.

They work together to shut out the Sunni, and then the Shia gives up the northern part of Iraq and allows the Kurds to become an independant state, Kurdistan. Interesting... The Kurds are so geographically removed from the southern part of Iraq anyway, and they have wanted an independant state for a long time.
