The Kurds said “Thank you” to the U.S. after we freed them from Sadaam’s brutal rule. But they are Muslims, so we can’t depend on them not to backstab us once ISIL is defeated.

Or do they practice a form of Islam where they leave Infidels alone? That would be interesting to know.

the investigation I’ve done on the Kurds indicates that they, as a culture, despite their nominal identification with Islam - are not of the jihadist mentality. Not even close. They want a secure and prosperous area of their own and to be free. They have no interest in spreading Islam.

In fact, Christianity is on the rise among Kurds and I haven’t been reading reports about a backlash as I have in other parts of the Middle East. Leave them alone, we’re friends. Try to take what’s theirs, good luck! I like that. That reminds me a lot of America back in the day.
