For the last three plus years, I have realized that
the Kurdish militia was the most potent force in
the land. That paragon of power cannot be ignored.

Amplify it much to Turkey's chagrin for not letting
us operate from their northern land back in '03.

The Northern Kurdish are an abused and defensive
people who could flex some muscle and the surround-
ing folks would have much to fear should they be
unleashed. Let the people of the area realize that
they have much to be feared from within if they do
not cool off their heels. Those Kurds are the type
who would love to run Baath types through.

If Al Sadre types get too ferocious, they'd
eat them too....JJ61

Yes, I agree. I believe it is time to turn them lose.
