If Scotland can secede, why can't the Sunnis and Kurds? Why are we so invested in keeping together a country that isn't really a country?

@ryangrim Possibly, they're having discussions w/ DOS right now & want new government in Baghdad offer something in return. That's the rub. -
@ryangrim Ali Hatem, head of the Dulaim Tribe, would be the most likely to do interview. He's in Irbil dodging arrest warrant from Baghdad -
@ryangrim Hatem wants autonomy & removal of Iraqi army & Shia militias from Anbar & guarantees that US would attack ISIS & not other Sunnis -
@ryangrim My read is that he can deliver the other 25 major tribes in Anbar & that they want rid of the Daas - their name for ISIS -
@ryangrim There are delicate negotiation going on w/ DOS, Hatem, Kurdish leaders & the new Iraqi gov. Gotta be careful here.
