The constitution is a can of worms, and no matter what you think, Artilce 140 does not do what Galbraith aimed it at, and further more, Allawi and Barzani did not even want to get article 140 anywhere. Do you honestly think Kurdistan would have got to the stage it did with prosperity wise for the few, if it had been carried through.
FH , Maliki as made no such comments, every time this starts people in the west wheel out Maliki as the threat to Adabi, the KDP PUK would love Maliki back, but it is not going to happen.
The constitution contains many article, some even wipe out the constitution all together and start a fresh. Instead of having a nation of Kurdistan, you just need a united Iraq, and if you think that is hard, look at the UK , as the UK is fragmented in every direction.
Kurds dont have there very own homeland, in name and a place at the UN and there are 30 million of them world wide, 22 million would never ever chose to live in a Kurdistan, they got out for a reason.
The Tamils number close to 70 million, they dont have there own nation.
In the Indy ref, HALBJA, that was hit by chemical weapons , did not manage to turn out 50% of the people to vote, and I suggest you go an dlook at the results of that .
Maliki was to soft with the KRG , and ALLAWI already as the biggest share in oil $ of anyone, he can outdo Tillerson in that department
