The Kurds are behaving like fools. They should be working with the Turks to wipe out this PKK filth that is giving all Kurds a bad name.
Do you know *why* the Kurds are revolting against the Turks?

Yes, the Kurds essentially think a huge swath of the middle east is "Kurdistan". I think most people would agree that an ethnic group this large should have a "homeland". That is why their defense of the PKK by the larger Kurdish community is so maddening. They are about to blow their best chance in several hundred years of establishing a Kurdish homeland.
