A medium sized convoy (50+ armored vechiles) PMU deployed in Kerkuk city as part of the PMU leader Mohandis meeting in Kerkuk with other PMU leaders, there was not even resistance by Kurdish checkpoint from not letting them enter. Strange, if it was just a leader visiting there wouldn't be the need for some 50 armored fully equipped vechiles. Anyway that just brings more ISF in Kerkuk city who won't be pulling out.

Now according to Kurdish sources it is a temporary deployment, although I have my doubts on that. Especially the PMU who aren't as politically correct as Iraq's army leadership and won't that easily pull out.

How many PMU are stationed in Kirkuk?

Couple thousands (Turkmen units mostly) excluding the recent mobilizations for Hawija operation, I don't think that it exceeds 5K

Since if there is a war between the Kurds and Iraqi Military it will be a very long one, judging by the fact that even Saddam couldn't completely crush them per se.

You guys are making a lion out of a mice.

Remember that both Peshmerga in Iraq and YPG in Syria were losing against ISIS, till US involved and with the US air support even my Grandma can beat ISIS.

Iraqi army is too weak for that. It would only work if their buddy Iran also interfered but this would trigger US. I dont think such a thing would happen but if Iraq goes into direct conflict, best they can do is deal some damage and may be take control of some disputed areas, like Kirkuk(with inside support of Arabs and Turkmens possibly). Which I think they should definietly do if Kurds really go along with this independence bullsh.t. Would be better if they could also secure a border to Turkey at the northwest.
