More cogently, look at this simplified BBC Magazine article's map of the three Ottoman provinces in Mesopotamia before World War I. This is essentially the reversion to which John Gray refers. Where Western empires (driven by vast, powerful oil companies as well as military security interests) created the phony 'nation' of Iraq, the Ottomans had ruled the historic region of Mesopotamia in three separate provinces: the Kurdish-dominated province of Mosul in the northeast, the Sunni-dominated Nineveh Province in the southwest, and a Shi'a dominated province in the southeast.
