Okay...here we go.
lets give all cntrol of all of Iraq to the Kurds, back them up, let them run Iraq and that should take care of everything. We help block borders of syria and Iran .
I know that is not “ DEM-OH-CRATIC”!!!! and the libs would whine “But that’s not fair, Dad! “
Is there any reason not to do this?
I think the concept we are working towards is one of a representative government. The Kurds are a minority in Iraq as a whole. I consider them to be a US ally but handing over control of the nation to them would be reckless and cause understandable resentment and fighting from the the sunnis and shiites. It would break apart the nation that is forming overnight IMO.
