Well, the problem is that the Kurds would require territory at the expense of a NATO ally, and of another regime (Iran) that is likely to react with some brutality. We do not have it in our power to give them their homeland, and if we did carve out a rump Kurdistan from Iraq, it would likely on encourage further turmoil, as the nucleus for Kurdish military excursions. It pretty much sucks all the way around, though......
