If we were supporting the good guys, why are the Kurds aligning with Russia?

The Kurds will align with whoever is strongest. USA is now a greatly weakened power in the region and we are too close with Turkey, at least under Obama.

KKP (Communist Party of Kurdistan) is still very strong among some Kurds and they have always followed Moscow.
