Yahoo Sucks asked:
Many people have proposed the idea of granting sovereignty to different regions within Iraq. I’m on the fence with this idea as I do not fully understand the cultural diversity in Iraq. I will say that Iraq gained sovereignty from Britain in 1932, the Kurd’s have been without a country for some time and Saddam had been using tribal leadership to hold Iraq together under his rule.

What are the pros and cons of granting sovereignty to the different regions within Iraq?
