With all due respect to the Kurds, I've been hearing this since the 1990s.

At what point is it up to the Kurds to right themselves, or find other strategic partners to help defend them?

How did this become an American obligation in perpetuity?

Isn't that the mission of the un?

I was outraged when Bush 1 after we had beaten Saddam then allowed him to use helicopters to destroy the marsh Arabs and the Kurds. Kusay really know how to kill Kurds for his daddy, poison gas and everything. It’s a wonder the Kurds have any dealings with us at all. Also, they are keeping about 10,000 ISIS males in prison and there are also about 100,000 women, old men, and children of theirs hanging around. The first thing that will happen if Turkey crosses the border is a whole lot of Kurdish troops and guards will head for the border and release/escape of those 10,000 ISIS fighters and their families would start the whole mess all over again.
