This is why Kafir-kun is my favorite Sherdogger by far to have a discussion with in regards to the Middle East. None of the partisan distractions and loud noises, just cold hard historic realities that most people choose to ignore until it's suits their talking points.
If everyone around the world who are enraged at the latest development (or to be precise, raging at Trump's decision to stay on track with the U.S withdrawal plan from Syria that was announced last December) is even 1% as concerned about the Kurds as they claims to be, not only we would already have a Kurdistan as a real country for years now, but also a bona-fide, legal, and fully-equipped International peace-keeping force already on the ground to keep the region in check when the Syrian refugees returns home, to make sure no one use that excuse for their ulterior motives against the Kurds - with or without American involvements.
To the fuming Americans in this thread, ask yourself this:
"Do I really care about the Kurds enough to want to see the world make real long-term policies changes for them as a people, or do I just want to get on my soapbox and bitch each time these state-less people gets used and discard by the big boys, and pretends it's the first time they gets screwed?"
To the fuming Europeans in this thread: when are you bastards gonna hold up the promises you made to the Kurds at
the Treaty of Sèvres 99 years ago about giving them their own country when you carved up the remnants of the Ottoman Empire?
