Thanks for the link.

The reporter says it was actually a missile that hit the truck. I can hear it and see it on the video.

Did anyone of them say that? I thought they were Christians.

Mostly muslim...I respect the Kurds for standing and fighting (while the Iraqi army flees). But I don’t think they are the bff’s alot people make them out to be.

The Javelin is always launched by a ground combatant.

I think most Kurds are Muslim, although I know from a friend that went on an agricultural mission to Kurdistan that there are a number of closet Christians—they are not persecuted but they keep pretty quiet about their faith. They would open up to my friend when they realized he was also a Christian.
