But they were operating in Kurdish territory. The whole premise of the article and this thread is that AQ operating in Iraq shows the connection. If it doesn't show a connection with Kurds - in whose territory they were based - how does it possibly establish a connection with Iraq, which held no sway in the area where Ansar was based?
