Partitioning Iraq

Link I'd written earlier that I'd thought that partitioning Iraq would be a way to prevent genocide of Shia on Sunni. I put it this way since Sunni's are the minority and have little political power. Seems like the US military was attempting to do just that in Baghdad, but now al-Maliki says he's against such a move. Of course he's a Shia, so I don't know whether we can trust him.
