I’ve been reading Solider of Fortune since 2003 and all of the editors who served in Iraq vouch for the Kurds. Heck, there was even one article about a family naming their first born child DICK CHENEY for how Cheney authorized weapons and food assistance to the Kurds.
I’m not personally close to any of them in Iraq, but know about them.
I am very close to some in Syria and absolutely love the way they treat their neighbors, defend each other and fight bravely and fiercely to be free of oppression. What is not to like?
