Sunnis also will support the government, at least initially, because it represents their only opportunity to win what they consider their share of power, resources, and revenues. Kurds will accept the arrangement because they believe that the new constitution guarantees their right to control most of the oil wealth that lies beneath their territory, and because they don’t want the blame should Baghdad descend into chaos.
逊尼派也会支持政府，至少在刚开始的时候，因为这是他们赢取在他们看来自己应得的权力、资源和收入的唯一机会。库尔德人会接受这样的安排，因为他们相信新的宪法会保证他们控制其领地下大多数石油财富的权利，同时也因为他们不想被人指责是使巴格达陷入混乱的罪魁祸首。
