These kinds of conflicts tend to segregate the population on their own, but yeah there are still a lot of mixed areas.

Yeah, I too approve of ethnic cleansing.

Cities have been split before---and Baghdad has already been segregated a lot by previous violence and is probably becoming even more so now that it's back---but I don't know how feasible it would be.

Baghdad religion maps, 2003 vs 2008:





I'm guessing it's a similar story in other mixed parts of the country, but most of the national demographic maps seem outdated.
