    Let's think about 2nd and 3rd order effects for a minute.

    What impact would Kurdish independence have on US foreign policy in the region?

    What impact would Kurdish independence have on US foreign policy in the region if it were the case (or even widely believed to be the case) that the US supported said independence movement?

    And what policy interests or goals of the US would be served by Kurdish independence?

    AOG fucking stupid, again.

    This is thinking that had us stand by as our allies in Gulf War 1 were gassed to death

    Fuck Turkey and the camel it rode in on
    The Kurds didn't do shit for us in GW1. The Shia Arabs in the south kind of did, and we let Saddam murderize them. You can thank Schwartzkopf and Big Dick Cheney for that one.

    Lotta people died to make Iraq a nominal US ally. So we should just piss that away for Kurdish independence? And that is completely ignoring the Turks.

    We'd be better off working to ensure greater autonomy for the Kurds within Iraq. They could keep building their successful economy, undermining Turkish dickheads who call Jurds "mountain Turks," and being a wedge between Shia Iraq and Shia Iran.
    oh your hidden assumption is we* should get involved. The US. I didn't say that. No. In a fight, though, I like the Kurds chances.
    Well the Kurds didn't .They just showed their bellies to the Iraqi Army that came back to repo repo repo Kirkuk. And support, without more is a faggoty waste of tim. I suppose you also "support" a free Tibet and women's rights in India, right?
    Tibet and women's rights are red herrings... The kurds have not decided what to do about their homeland proper.

    Einstein, start a pole asking if people should ever just express an opinion!
