The Kurds are the most effective and experienced fighters in the region. Make no mistake. Now that ISIS is defeated the Iraqi civil war enters a new phase. The Shi’ite militias and Iran have no choice but to attack Kurdish held oil rich Kuiruk. The Shi’ites will be badly bloodied. The Kurds have set so many tank traps and kill zones that scrap dealers have already bid on the salvage rights.
The thought of Turkish tanks getting clobbered brings a smile to my face. Especially if it’s done by the Kurds
