              The PKK and the Peshmerga have always been enemies.

                  Good luck moving or fighting in open terrain from here on out, *******s.

                  Pin them down, let the peshmerga crush them in detail. People don't take it too kindly when you threaten their kin with genocide

                        "In 2012 the Kurdish leadership put in effect a program to unify the Kurdish forces of PUK and KDP, both of which operated as separate armies inside the region before the unification. The unification program plans on having a total size of 18 brigades, which will be finalized by mid-2014."

                            Could the Peshmerga use an Alcubierre Drive to go back in time and crush ISIS before they were even born? Would this make baby Spock cry?
