The Kurds are an awesome example of the kind of people, culture, and bad-assery the middle east needs supported. What are your thoughts?

The Kurds have done very well with not much aside from fierce wills and determination. They need to be armed to the teeth and given as much support as possible, and the Iraqis need to be made to understand that the Kurds are fighting for and with them and pushed to integrate their fighting forces with better communication and collaborating maneuvers.
Thoughts?

I feel that given their contributions, and good faith relationships, they will come out ok when all this is said and done. The Iraqis and Kurds actually signed an oil sharing agreement after the Kurds took back the Kirkuk oilfields. It was a pretty unprecedented development given their history.

We need to follow through with them and support them. We abandoned them after the first Gulf war, I would be horribly embarrassed if we do it again!

look up the area of traditional Kurdistan - if we could negotiate an independent Kurdistan out of Iraq, we would have an ally, if we could negotiate for Turkey to give up a little slice of their southern border(not all of traditional Kurdistan) and for Syria to give up a little slice of their eastern border(not all of traditional Kurdistan), we would have a serious ally for all time
