Comparing the Kurds to the Saudi’s is like comparing Obama to Reagan....

You might want to do a little research on who the Kurdish people are...

I was generalizing - not so much ‘picking’ on the Kurdish.

Then again, look at the way ‘we’ are now treating Israel, we had the support of Jordan at one time, Qadaffi ‘got the message’ and at least remained more or less neutral.

It will take years to sort out how much damage this clown BO has done in the name of the US but it all does seem to point to him ‘backing’ the Mooslims.

We back groups to ‘slow down’ the Russians in Afghanistan, we supported Iraq vs Iran, apparently most of what ISIS has they ‘stole’ from the Iraqis - that we ‘armed’, the Iraqis and Afghanis that we back or support have ‘our backs’ but too often there is a knife in the hand that is ‘on our shoulder’.
Granted this all didn’t happen overnight, just a pattern that is not all that hard to follow.

Our track record isn’t very good in that part of the world.
Who we may back last year, we may be fighting with our own money and weapons next year.

It was not my intention to besmirch the Kurds in any manner, they definitely have resiliency, as they seem to end up being the ‘Whipping Boy’ no matter who is in control.

BTW Pman, BO and RR full name shouldn’t be in the same sentence...<: <: <:
