I think a 3 state solution is a recipe for disaster at this point because it guarantees that these "states" will be at each others throats for the foreseeable future as proxies of the bigger states in the area. Sunni's, Shi'a, and Kurds have been living side by side in this region for 1400 years or more, what they need is solid leadership, not a sweeping of the problems down the road...
They have been killing each other since day one you mean.. There is absolutely no feeling about being an "Iraqi" really.
In a country where tribal and religious leaderships are where the power resides any idea about a political system joining all groups in a federal system will fail I fear.
Only the gulf royals have that kind of authority history shows us.
