#3 They confuse autonomy and freedom, but I do see why the Kurds have wanted nothing to do with Sunni triangle or even the Shiites in cahoots with Iran. The Kurds have jobs and are working at rebuilding but it won't work as long they squabble over territory, each claiming superiority. They need EQUAL constitutional protections for all so they can live as Iraqi neighbors. Maybe the Kurds should have their own country and let those in Turkey secede to join them and let the Sunnis and Shiites fight to the death.
