You should take up your people's once proud tradition of mercenarism.

I'd bet you'd be able to pick one up serving in a foreign war.

We should really be supporting a free Kurdish state.

We have air bases in Turkey. There's a large population of Kurds in Turkey. Ergo, that wouldn't fly with Turkey.

Quote History

Quoted:
From everything I've read about the Kurds they are well led, organized, trained, disciplined----excellent people and soldiers. . .

Only downside is certain percentage/elements of them are Communists,---- supposedly. Or at least were. . . Or at least were funded/armed by Russia---at one time or another. . .

Reminds me of Chinese Communist troops during the 40's---they were much better soldiers than those fighting for Chiang Kai-Shek. . . according to most sources.

Its frustrating. There are good people fighting evil there. These dudes are painful to watch but are facing what 99% of others in the region ran from.

Broker a deal with Turkey and lets assist in the creation of Kurdistan.

LOL @ 13:20 are they taking a break so that cars can get over the bridge???

Considering that they are fighting without any real support + half their men are probably disorganized militia it's a miracle that they win anything.

Quote History

Quoted:

I'm not so sure. I'm sure Western forces would do better but I'm not sure how quickly. Reading the accounts of Western volunteers, the Kurds lack proper air support and combined arms.

I remember reading the account of one American who claimed he was a vet of Iraq/Afghanistan who said he didn't realize how hard fighting is when you can't call in air or armored support when you need it.

God Bless the Kurds and all. But if it was American or Western European troops defending the seige, ISIS's attack would be quickly broken off.

There's no making a deal with Turkey when our President (and the rest of the "Western World") is a pussy and the Turkish "President" is a Muslim tyrant.

I wonder how that guy around 13:20 got that G36. He must have sold some of his sweetest goat putang for it.

Once it became common knowledge that the G36 is shit, Germany started dumping them on the Kurds.

Yeah, other than the PKMs as GPMGs, they were pretty much equipped like US troops. I was just referencing the Bundeswehr findings that G36 accuracy sucks, then shortly after, the Germans announce they are sending arms to the Peshmurga and pics start showing up online of Kurds with G36s.
