I definitely get your points about stability and unified = better returns on the weighty energy and infrastructure investments and I didn't explicitly say anyone was allowing IS to do anything. More taking advantage of an unstable situ maybe. Also like you alluded to, long term KRG isn't really operating for a unified Iraq in anything but name.
I get what you're saying and I didn't mean to overstate the influence on the ground of arms manufacturers but their CEOs do get flown around the region in the PMs plane for some reason. Just sayin
