#1 Seems they have three choices because of demographics:
One become a giant Kurdistan; two, partition; three genocide.

I think partition on their terms is probably the most palatable since they still can't accept any admission regarding the Armenian genocide and the Kurds wouldn't go quietly.

#2 IMO the Kurds are saavy enough NOT to push Turkey's buttons too much or too soon - the ISIS/ISIL, OTOH, likely won't care and will begin attacking Turkey as soon as is feasible.

THE REAL QUSTIONNE' IS WHETHER MIGHTY "RED LINE" NOT-A-DEFENDER POTUS OBAMA = US-NATO/EU WILL ALLOW NATO-EU ALLY TURKEY TO BE PARTITIONED???
