Partition has often failed
Regarding Gregory Clark's Aug. 27 article, "Hope for peace in partition?": It was with some surprise that I read Clark preach the virtues and minimize the dangers of using partition as a tool to solve intrastate disputes (such as in Iraq). Even if one accepts Clark's view that responsibility for the tragedies following the partition of India and Pakistan belongs mainly to the British, it is clear that partitions have caused, or at least failed to solve, a lot of conflicts. To cite a few sadly famous examples: Ireland and Northern Ireland; Israel and Palestine; West and East Berlin; North and South Korea; North and South Vietnam; India and Pakistan; Pakistan and Bangladesh.
