Two issues...

1. The Sunni Iraq is nothing. There are zero resources in Western Iraq. It was Saddam's outlaw land when he was in power. That region would be unstable even with it's own state.

2. An Independent Kurdistan would bring about a war with Turkey. Turkey has always had an issue with the Kurds after the Ottoman Empire fell and it's always wanted it back.
