On the topic of the original post,
Joe Biden and the Senate told them to divide Iraq in three and, as a result,
today the Iraqi parliament meets to figure out how to best politely tell the US Senate to fuck off.
Quote:
... the matter does not even require enacting a law because the content of the American resolution flagrantly interfered in Iraq's internal affairs, let alone its violation of the Iraqi constitution.
Qadou noted that the Iraqi constitution guarantees the country's "territorial integrity and national sovereignty," adding the Congress' resolution "can never change Iraq's settled national principles."
He said the U.S. resolution "only aimed to cause Iraq to slide into the pits of a civil war only God knows when it will end."
"It is the duty of all the national powers (in Iraq) to reject such an insolent resolution and to quickly announce their positions in the face of this trivializing with the sovereignty of Iraq," he said.

I guess it is not ironic for the Senate to interfere with the governance of a sovereign nation.
