| 2015-08-11 |
| [RUDAW.NET] In an interview at the base of Mount Shingal, Kurdish Yezidi military and political leader Qasem Shesho swore allegiance to the Kurdistan Democratic Party (KDP) of Kurdistan region President Masoud Barzani, and said he wanted the Yezidis included in any future independent Kurdish state. "We only trust the Barzani family and the Kurdistan Democratic Party (KDP), and especially President Masoud Barzani himself," Shesho told Rudaw. "We don't trust anybody else." "Since 1970 I have been with Kurdistan Democratic Party," he said. "Whenever Kurdistan becomes an independent state we will be under its control and then nothing bad will happen to us." |

| #3 First thingys come first - unless the US_Allies can defeat + destroy the ISIS/ISIL, there will be no Kurdistan. Even iff the ISIS/ISL is defeated + destroyed, a nmber of regional countries would have to sign off to a independent Kurdistan, including but not limited to new US BFF OWG Co-Superpower Iran + possibly any new Globie Co-Superpower Turkey, etal. Once again, PAN-TURKIC UNION VERSUS PAN-IRANIAN/PERSIAN UNION, where Ankara's + Tehran's ambitions include the territories that would comprise or make up most or all of saidsame future "Kurdistan". |

| #1 These people are real victims. But as usual our so called President do not want anything to do with real victims. Pretend victims especially Muslims are the only people he cares about. |
