In the turkish part of what-would-be kurdistan there is something much more valuable - water. The turks are busy building some dams in the area and probably will be a little pissed if they were to loos that.Originally posted by Tattila the Hun
That land... Is it worth something? Is there oil there?With or without religion, you would have good people doing good things and evil people doing evil things. But for good people to do evil things, that takes religion.

Thank you. That was much better. Unfortunately, though I am amazingly intelligent, I only drive a minivan and I don't drink coffee. Must be why I don't get the joke.Originally posted by faded glory

I'm more than a little skeptical about this report. IMO, it wouldn't be a bad outcome, if it would be possible to divvy up the country. But I doubt they would be able to divide the oil revenues. The land on which the Sunnis reside is largely bereft of oil.I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891Comment

If not for the Kurds in Turkey, I would support the notion of an independent Kurdistan to use as a thorn in Iran's side the way Iran uses Hizbollah as a thorn in the Israeli side."The purpose of studying economics is not to acquire a set of ready-made answers to economic questions, but to learn how to avoid being deceived by economists."

Stop it. You made me think that Slaughtermeyer posted something sensible.Originally posted by Wycoff
Probably because the Kurdish reaction to a new Kurdish state wouldn't be a Kurdish exodus from Turkey & Iran to the new state, but rather an extreme rise in Kurdish irredentism in Turkey & Iran. The Kurds would want to take their land with them when they leave Turkey & Iran. That is the recipe for ethnic civil war in both states.Comment

So what if it's artificial - we are living in a multicultural world where we shall respect people from other cultures - they just have to learn to live with each others.Originally posted by chegitz guevara
