My prediction is US will abandon Sheits of Iraq for the Sunnis because thats what British did after WW2 to have a better control of its resources. It is in US interest not to allow aspirations of the majority of Iraqis that will contradict with its political and economical interests in the region to get in the way of it.

Iraqis will at the end be left to be guarded by the wolves much like they were before the US invasion and occupation. A true independent and democratic oil rich county is not in interest of the west. That is it ------------
