"Neither can I see why the US should disarm the militias"

I don't see us disarming anyone of small arms. Liberals can't even disarm our citizens of small arms, nor should they. At the same time I do hope that a democratic republic of Iraq will give the Kurds a feeling that they have a voice and that will be enough for them. Iraq being a democracy will be key. Meanwhile, from my understanding you do have multiple Kurdish factions combating one another. Certainly there is at least one more pro-Turkish and pro-American than the others.

Simple probability?

Three parties are listed as legitemate on their web.. KDP, PUK, and PKK.
