"BAGHDAD: Iraqi Kurdish leader Massud Barzani has declared that the “time has come” for the country’s Kurds to hold a referendum on statehood, a move likely to raise tensions with Baghdad."

================

As one would expect, the racist, filthy arab muslims who do not tolerate the sovereign rights of anyone else in the mideast will do everything they can to stop this.

That's why those of us who know the mideast facts see the Israel conflict as simply a fig leaf for the racist, intolerant, vile and violent arab muslims and iran to use as a distraction. The muslims follow a supremist death cult called islam which disallows the tolerance of other groups' rights, which is why the arab muslims have been in perpetual war unless utterly conquered for 14 centuries.

I don't think that the Iraqi or Turkish Kurds have an inherent right to statehood. Much of my sympathy is generated by the fact that the Muslims piss me off to no end.

To be fair, if the fakestinians are somehow "entitled" to their own country - and that scum has done everything humanly possible NOT to deserve one, including being deported en masse from Kuwait, Iraq and Jordan, then the Kurds should be handed the fucking Rock of Gibraltor with gold treasure and half of Europe.

While I share your dislike of muslims, and detest the existence of the death cult known as "islam", of all of the oppressed minority groups in the mideast, the Kurds are amongst the most benign, rational and Western-leaning.

You do know the Kurds are both Arab and Muslim right?

Iraq was another artificial construct, I agree, it is time for the Kurds to have their own state.

Muslim yes, arab DEFINITELY NOT.

This has nothing to do with the OP, BTW.

Well if you're going that route, then you would do well to recognize that the Iraqi people aren't (predominantly) Arab eithed. They're Assyrian, Babylonian, Uighir, Turkic, Etc. Not that you (especially you) could tell the difference visually. But beyond that you seem entirely driven in hatred of "Arab Muslims" and thus think to support anything that would be presented as disadvantageous to them. Except you're being pretty short sighted. The Kurds are, among other things, generally supportive of Palestine.

Somebody needs to tell Erdogan ( Turkish PM and now President)..he didn't get the memo for allowing a Kurdistan..

Few things more hilarious than arrogant people telling you how "wrong" you are - then making a comment that makes no sense. "Iraqi" is a nationality, not an ethnicity.

Second, your claim about the ETHNIC makeup of iraq is wrong:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demographics_of_Iraq#Ethnic_and_religious_groups

"Iraq's dominant ethnic group are the Iraqi or Mesopotamian Arabs, who account for around three-quarters of the population."

And your childish personal insults from a twit who has probably spent less time in the mideast than I have in a given month, really should keep their mouth shut about people they know NOTHING about. I do not make claims about you as I know nothing about your background, you should do the same about mine.
