7. It is more complicated then that
the area they occupy also contains a lot of oil

Incidently, the Turks controlled the whole area for 400 plus years until western colonialism after WWI

As far as the Kruds being the most "democratic" in the area you are misinformed. Mark my words, we will be the cause of a civil war, and who knows what else in that region. The U.S. is encouraging this because the Turkish parliment did NOT give the U.S. the launching platform from their country to invade Iraq, the worst mistake the U.S. has ever made.

Obviously we have learned NOTHING FROM HISTORY, and we will be burned BIG TIME by this, along with our children
