The problem is this. The Kurds have been harboring terrorists and rebels (or rather they haven’t done anything to root them out) that are killing and bombing Turkey and Iran.

If Iran moves in, I suspect that Turkey will also. And that will place the US, and Iraq, in a very odd position.

Would we risk war with a NATO ally in order to defend the Kurds?

Help me with my memory. When did Turkey support us last with blood? Korea, perhaps. But, I think that's about it. I would sya the Kurds have done more than out NATO partner in recent times.
