Kurdish statelessness - 08 Aug 07

There are about 25 million Kurds, making them the fourth-largest ethnic group in the Middle East after the Arabs, Persians and Turks.

Promised, but never granted, their own country after World War One, they're spread across areas of Turkey, Syria, Iraq and Iran.

Hoda Abdel Hamid reports from the Kurdistan region of Iraq on the quest for their own country.

Turkey has had Kurdish Presidents, Actors , Singers and many more wonderful kurdish people who contributed to turkeys nation and society. they have every right as any turk. tell me what other rights you need, what more do u need ? unfortunately there are a few terrorists(by action) who still rebel under false accusations to turkey and turn others who dont contribute to society, to rebel w/ the help of western arms deals w/terrorists who will screw them afterward = arab history repeated.

@HolyFireGod Aha good point...BUT what u don't see is that: these governments and countries are made and planned by the USA ...unlike the kurdish desire to seek out any foreign power to wipe up the arab occupiers or turks...so while that is being done israel and USA have even more reasons to kill the arabs and muslims and devide them...never think the jews are gonna like u guys ! they like what ur revolt would reflect on them ;) salam

Long life to Kurdistan!

From an israeli supporter of the kurds!

don't tell me u dont care about them,the israelis care about kurdistan to further divide the arabs !

[HolyFireGod]

@nabiho93 western support ? aren't all the countries and governments of the middle east ran by western powers? tell me one middle eastern country who is not a puppet ? we fought and still fighting with honor (no suicide bombings,kidnap,assassinations­...etc). and Israel all the arab countries plus turkey have good relations with israel so if Kurds have relations with them or not it's nobodies business.

@Cengiz78x You turks are filthy creatures roaming in central asia scavenging for shit as your main source of food. I find dog shit much more honorable that you entire race + your ancestors (monkeys n goats). you are not worthy of me pissing on you existence !
