Who will help the Kurds?

[Jim Beard]

19. I want to thank you for this excellent thread

This subject has been on my mind for some time now. I really like the maps that show the Kurdish population area and how complex it is. I was under the assumption that the Kurdish area was much smaller in Turkey which is indeed a problem.

I do not believe in forcing people to live together like the prime example being the former Yugoslavia. Let the people have true self determination. I am even critical of the United States and its brutal civil war. Slavery was on its way out all over the world and it was just a matter of time before it was no longer used in the US. We lost a lot of our brothers and sister in that war and the anger runs deep even today.

While I despise what Russia is doing in the Ukraine, Kiev were the birth place of Russia. Let the Russians to the East go and defend the areas most like Europe.

There will have to be some division of the oil reserves on Kurdish land.


It there was an independent Kurdish nation in what is now Iraq, there would be migration from other Kurdish regions.
