It is time for the USA to recognize an independent Kurdistan.

Interesting take on it from Quebecers.

We should recognize the new state of Kurdistan and help them fight ISIS in any way possible. We owe it to them for the immeasurable help they gave us during the occupation. Turkey is even giving the green light, through its pipeline deal with the Kurds.

The time is now for a strong and independent Kurdistan in the north of old Iraq.

Let Iran and Saudi Arabia fight over the remainder of old southern Iraq.

All these borders need to be redrawn to something that reflects actual reality on the ground.
