Well, if that means allowing Kurds to emigrate into current Kurdistan I imagin all parties would go along with that, if you are talking more territory, especially from Turkey that wont fly. Turkey is our ally and frankly has been a good ally for years, only time they ever stuck it to us was over the Iraqi invasion and that was because Turkey is an Islamic country and the people (not the government) were adverse to assisting in the attack of another muslim. jdn


Since the 1920s the Kurds have dreamed of their own country called Kurdistan. The link provides a map of Kurdistan which includes parts of Iraq, Turkey, Syria and Iran:

Somehow I don't think the Kurds have given up that dream. However, they recognize that we are allies with Turkey, and right now, its not in their best interest to get us stirred up.

BTW did you know that the Turks have killed more Kurds than S. Hussein?
