I cannot understand how anybody in right mind can think of splitting a country?
First of all what right to we have to say 'let diving iraq into 3 parts'?
And secondly, did they even consider what this will this lead to?
this is no solution, this is adding fuel to the burning middle east.

Iraq was a country hobbled together by the British in 1932. There had never been a distinct 'Iraq' as we know it. While it might be overstepping our bounds, perhaps the Iraqis want it. The Kurds have been autonomous for the past 15+ years, so it might work. Iraq, anyhow, would still remain a nation.

What right Washington politicians have to decide about another country? Shame on you, bringing war, displacement and misery to that country was not enough, now you want to split it?

It's all aprt of the plan that both US parties are in on. Balkanization was always the goal. The Israeli right wing believes this is Israel's only hope of completing their ethnic cleansing of Palestine and, at the same time, barring Chinese access to mideast energy assets. The Democrats are totally subserviant to the Likudniks.

Disgraceful, but not surprising as i believe this was the plan all along, ...this move will ensure problems will persist long term, and the different factions will be perpetually at war, bad idea.

The stupidity of the senate is well known. They are unable to do their duties under the US consitituion and continue to interfere with other countries. Nothing new.

I think Biden's hair plugs were screwed too deep into his brain.
