        Kurdistan voted to be it's own country. Any prevention of this is a prevention of democracy #freekurdistan #recognizeKurdistan

        when there is the threat of being attacked or murdered, what do you do if you’re disarmed? At least in Catalonia

        The real problem is the way the British divided the middle east and Africa without care for tribes.

        Joe Biden advocated this years ago. A state for the Shias, Sunni, and Kurds based on historic tribal areas, not boundaries set by the West.

        The same reason Spain won't allow Catalonian independence. As well as the fact that Turkey would despise them.
