The Turks and Iranians have been Oppressing the Kurds with the best of them for centuries. I’m personally fine with a Kurdish state but it will lead to even more war.
The Kurds once controlled an area from Afghanistan to Lebanon through Iran, Syria, Iraq, Turkey and possibly more. They still exist in pockets across the entire area.
Iraq should have been cut up 20 years ago after Gulf War 1 into ethnic regions. Iraq is not a unified state and never will be.
I agree with that at least for any scenario that has the Kurds annexing Kurdish areas of Turkey. Unlike the author of the article, I just can't envision Turkey giving that idea the old thumbs up.
“The Kurds once controlled an area from Afghanistan to Lebanon through Iran, Syria, Iraq, Turkey and possibly more.”
Evidence?
