From what I read in the history books, partitioning of Iraq is a VERY good idea. Conquered nations with large resistance forces engaged in guerrilla warfare is a serious threat in attrition warfare. Few countries can afford to keep their armies in far away territory due to obvious economical reasons. The Kingdom of Prussia partitioned Poland with Russia and Austria. The Polish freedom fighters were easily dealt with. Germany would again conquer Poland with Russia a century later.
In a political point of view, this could be another case of Post-War Germany, with the country being divided into East Germany and West Germany with both sides with completely different types of government. Since Iraq is a country with numerous religious sect, this could be an effective idea. With the Shi'ite and Sunnis Groups with their own respective territory. This will help decrease the tension since (quite clearly) these two groups can't seem to get along well.
