        @BBCBreaking Months for #Kurdistan referendum is a long wait in the changing #Iraq situation. Ask #Russia help, two weeks in #Crimea.

        @BBCBreaking @BobRae48 wonder, has the US decided yet whether to call this one a "right to self determination" or "illegitimate power grab".

        @BBCBreaking @gretawire Kurds would have had independence years ago if we hadn't made a deal with Turkey preventing it.

        @BBCBreaking @BBCWorld So self determination continues. If Iraqi Kurds get independence, how will those in Iran and Turkey respond?
