It's time to let by gones be by gones. I think the Kurds need reconciliation and not to be looking at each other as still Saddam loyalists. The man is gone now, rather they need to start trying to rebuild those burned bridges of the Saddam era. The Kurds can't be a shining example for the rest of Iraq if they are going to fall into the same domestic strife over this person worked for so and so long ago.
I surely hope this doesn't set the Kurdish Regional Government back any.
This controversy is interesting - now Talabani is ill and has gone to Jordan for medical treatments.
I think that all sorts of disputes are building up, within the Kurdish camp, as there are many competing interests. The Kurds used to fight each other even during the worst of Sadaam's persecutions, so it would be odd if they never did so again.
