What is Interfaith Cooperation For?

1. Interesting how perspectives can vary.

The Barzani name is very well known in Kurdish liberation circles--in fact, the "George Washington" of the movement in Iraq--but revered across what is known as "Kurdistan"-- is a Barzani.

Time and time again, the USA has promised intervention and screwed the Kurds; in FDR's day, and in Nixon's day. The Kurds regard the removal of Sadddam as more than a "definition of justice" as this writer points out, but something akin to a promise kept, really.

Where you stand, as always, depends on where you sit. It helps to be familiar with the brutality of oppression endured by those people (beyond the famous "gassing" during the Iran-Iraq war...the apartheid and vicious treatment was just astounding); it's why Barzani was so forceful.
