Why should the Kurds owe ANYTHING to the governments of Iraq, or Turkey, or Iran, or Azerbaijan, or Armenia? They have been the oppressed minority in ALL those countries, and have evolved into a pro-socialist society, to the exclusion of most other ethnic groups.

Leave the Kurds to their fierce independence, but don’t expect them to answer to the call for “freedom” anywhere.

The Kurds have been impressive through everything they've had to endure. The only salvation from ISIS inspiring world-wide chaos just might be if an enlarged Kurdistan including elements of Syria, Iran and Turkey stops ISIS from access to oil fields and the Med.

The Kurds have been on top of the situation. The US hasn't just been impotent to react to the threat, we've funded, trained, and equipped ISIS!

OR THE U.S.A !

Time and again the U.S. abandoned the Kurds in their struggle against Saddam Hussein.
