What makes you think the goal is to completely crush them. The major reason Baghdad makes an issue out of this isn't due to them wanting independence, it's that they want to quickly run away with area's whilst Iraq's forces are still busy battling IS, these area's are not Kurdish, nor part of...

To add to that. A legal framework is already being developed to render KRG's position in Kerkuk illegal so that the military will be allowed to intervene legally, that gives some insight into plans. Maybe someday soon the Biji nonsense will be over after all. -- Seventy-four Iraqi MPs have...

This is likely but does not mean much given KRG's neighbors are against it and they're landlocked. Only a Russia or US(mostly due to their presence there) support to KRG above Baghdad would be problematic for us, but that is very unlikely given that the US does not want to lose its stance in...

Westerners will not understand, they've been brainwashed with the Biji Peshmerga strong propaganda. When looking at the facts you will find that the Kurds did not liberate any major town from IS, name them to me and compare it to the list of towns the Iraqis liberated. That aside, when we look...

I am but I don't influence this. Although the more hostility between Baghdad and KRG the better, it would be nice to see the president Fuad masoum (ceremonial role) thrown out as well. It's all the same shit, Barzani, Demirtas, PKK/YPG, PUK. They have their disputes but their success stems from...

There must be no postponing, conflict is needed

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan and Iraqi Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi are going to hold a meeting in the United States to discuss the Kurdish independence referendum

Current tensions are high in Kerkuk Province and Nineveh province, in particular Al-Qosh (a city inhabited by Assyrians who support Iraq) currently under Barzani occupation. Peshmerga put a Barzani poster up there whom locals tore down, the NPU (Assyrian militia tied to NPU) is active in that...

Any updates from inside Iran, I cannot find anything of ongoing export/supplies to PMU

Whether to call it civil war or KRG-Baghdad conflict, the Hashd (PMU) is likely to trigger it by responding to KRG aggression and illegal activities. The PMU is a bit of a loose cannon, whilst they follow gov orders they can be triggered quicker due to their leaders being more aggressive and...

More Arabs, who will move to Istanbul

Removing him includes halting all salaries to Kerkuk province employees, that means protests are coming. Kurds are known to back down when USA is not backing them up, hopefully they will not backdown as this needs to escalate.

So you want to tell me Turkey is relevant, are u happy now Go annex what you want

Britain follows US policy in the region, we're not in the 1920's anymore. US replaced British role in the middle east. It seems to me that you simply want to tell me that Turkey still has the option to annex all those lands if they decide to. There's no use to discussing something as unlikely...

Unaware of such treaties, but they don't matter much. A treaty is only valuable if powerful parties or those relevant still recognize that treaty. If Iraq and the US (relevant parties in this case) do not recognize the treaty then it's of no value, especially given that both including every...

Yes near Kerkuk on several sides for the operation, but Kurds are wary of this cause it can be extended to overrunning trenches into Kerkuk city and oilfields

Not true. I don't insult, don't attack Turks for their identity. Show me where I troll. There's only one Arab member here that speaks of DNA. I didn't see any other Arab member write about DNA. So one Arab member here might've attacked you now you know millions of them? Let me tell you that...

Your first words contain an attack towards my Arab identity, you just again confirmed what I said. If someone did this in the Turkish section you'd call for the admin to ban that person, but see that no one cares. Now you should work on it.

Again attacking Arabs, I am not offended but why do you hate them so much? It's clear, you can easily be triggered all it takes is raising Arabs and you'll be angry.

If Iraq(Baghdad), SAA(Damascus), Turkish gov and Iran form a common policy against KRG(launch pad for US military to aid the YPG) and you block their operations to aid YPG from Incirlik it'll go a long way. This should be possible, especially the part against KRG. Blocking incirlik is a bigger...
