Ha. It's only a matter of time now until some of the same people who have been glorifying the Kurds as a long-oppressed victim-race now start vilifying them as tools of imperialism.
Nobody should either glorify or vilify them. Moreover, it is a mistake to lump all the Kurds together. The Workers Party in Turkey never cut deals with imperialism, while the Iranian Kurds were allied with the USSR at one point, until Stalin's typically cynical double-dealing forced them to look elsewhere. Of course, the Iraqi Kurdish leadership is utterly bankrupt. That being said, the Kurds are an oppressed nationality. Period.
