Nikole > There are 60,000 Jews among the Kurd's leaders, and they want an independent state, Kurdistan, which just happens to sit on the world's largest oil deposits

Yes, I am aware of the sad history of the Kurds and how Britain and France "removed" their Kurdistan when the Ottoman Empire was cut up after WW1. I am also aware of the ancient Jewish presence amongst the Kurds, in fact, a presence in the region dating back to Biblical times and long before Kurds were even called Kurds.

Whether, their oil deposits are actually the largest in the world is moot, they are certainly very big.

> In this paper they say that we are all Wealthy and control USA and all oil recourses I really enjoy reading it in the morning . Much better morning reading than our Israeli press: they always write about high unemployment inflation and suicide bombings.

It's all a matter of perspective -- and one's sense of humour.
