So the Kurds are a proxy of the Zionist state.
Not only that, but all of the Kurdish are apparently conspiring together
in that regard. Jonathan Cook's article names "the Kurds" no fewer than
7 times without once acknowledging difference between Kurdish factions
or populations. You can imagine the proper reaction to an article
speaking in such terms about "The Jews" or almost any other
transnational population. But when it comes to the Kurdish, I guess it's
alright...
Anyway, it appears Cook's rant also resonates in high places. Leaders in
both Turkey and Iran have also denounced the Kurdish independence vote
as Zionist inspired!

Can't say I am
surprised by Jonathan Cook's "analysis" given his support for Bashar
al-Assad.
