The Kurds get exactly what they deserve, as they have for the last 100 years.

The only people who circlejerk about how mistreated they are either morons with no understanding of history or are Kurds attempting to justify their stupidity.

Can anybody name a single instance where the Kurds were attacked by Iraqis that wasn't in self-defense or retaliation for Kurdish aggression? Can anybody name a single people in history who have, in the span of 50 years, fought 5 wars against Iraq and sided with the enemy on 3 occasions, and yet were still completely forgiven by their peers in the country they live in?

Here is a list of all conflicts between Iraq prime and Iraqi Kurdistan https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ListofwarsinvolvingIraqi_Kurdistan

Read through that list, and come back and tell me that they are 'mistreated.' You can butcher what I said into 'they do not deserve anything good', but they bring on all of the suffering onto themselves, and they deserve each and every part of it for their disgusting view of the world they live in. If you put your hand in fire, you deserve to get burned, no? So why is it that the Kurds constantly beat themselves into wars and then cry over their military losses?

And now, during another conflict, rather than aiding their neighbors they are stealing land and posturing about splitting off, knowing full well that if they split away at this point in time it would destroy the entire country and establish a permanent ISIS' foothold.

But what else should be expected from people who threaten to cut off water to the rest of the country when they have political disputes over the fucking budget.

Oh?

  • So why don't you cry for the Iraqis who were gassed to death in that war?

  • Why don't you cry for the Iranians who were gassed to death in that war?

  • Why don't you cry for the 500,000 Iraqis who lost their lives in that war?

  • Why don't you cry for the 500,000 Iranians who lost their lives in that war?

Oh, instead, lets cry over 3500 people (yes, thats the entire amount of people who were 'gassed to death') who declared war against their country, facilitating the deaths of 1 million, and lost.

You're a fucking moron. But aside from 1988, lets rewind the clock back to 1974 when they murdered 20,000 Iraqis. Where is their tears? You fucking hypocrite

Who says that I'm not upset about the other deaths?

But right now I have to focus on the Kurds because someone here thinks people deserve to get killed.

Yes that's exactly what I said. The specific quote:

> They deserve nothing but the suffering they bring on themselves

If they want to wage war, then they deserve the outcome of the war they wage.

You're making a value judgment by claiming that they brought it upon themselves. It's still saying that they deserve to get killed.

"They" didn't wage war. Every Kurd didn't take up arms against Saddam. But chemical weapons don't screen for who 'deserves it.' It kills indiscriminantly. Men, women, children.

>On March 16, 1988, there was a genocidal poison gas attack on the city of Halabja in which four to five thousand Kurdish people were killed, most of them women and children.

>Other estimates as to the number of Iraqis killed by Saddam's regime vary from roughly a quarter to half a million, including 50,000 to 182,000 Kurds and 25,000 to 280,000 killed during the repression of the 1991 rebellion.

Oh go fuck yourself. Al Anfal was a portion of the Kurdish rebellion of 1983 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kurdishrebellionof_1983

Which was an extension of the Iran-Iraq war https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iran%E2%80%93Iraq_War

Only 3,500 people died as a result of the Halabja gas attack which the other clown is referring to.

> Go away, shoo now. Go kick a kitten or something else you can find enjoyable.

Yeah, or I can just kick Iraq when its down, and then try to rationalize it by further destroying the country through sectarian antagonizing and division. Oh wait, I'm not 100 years of Kurdish history.

Go away, shoo now. Go fuck yourself or try to misrepresent some other country's history. You should also rationalize how oppressed the Nazis were for losing their lives in WW2 </3

You, my friend, have serious rage issues.
