Juat happened to catch his show "No Reservations" on the teevee tonight....it was delightful. He visited Arbil a few villages and crossed into Mardin in Turkey...he was mightily impressed by the Qurds, charmed and well-fed. One comment made by a young Qurd was sort of chilling...he said that now that they had a taste of near-nationhood they were never going back...and that with America's help they could maintain their freedom etc., of course it helps that they have 17% of Iraq's oil. The man actually said, "America will not want to see us fail, they will always support us". Surely even he knows better...it wasn't that long ago the Qurds were betrayed to Saddam by papi Bush...I don;t think it was ignorance or naivte on his part, just his wish because he knows how outnumbered and alone they would be....

It was refreshing to hear no mention of Assyria...not even any visit with Christians, in fact not even a mention of them, or Islam. It was Qurdistan,plain and simple and if our Christians are smart they'll agree to be good citizens of Qurdistan...and the vast majority will....just as most of them were content to be Iraqis....but it's that small group of addlepated nincompoops who think they are going to revive Ashur who do all the damage and ruin things for everybody....those inside Qurdistan and of course those nasty cockaroaches in America and elsewhere who are safe enough but insist our people in Qurdistan must FIGHT and NEVER GIVE IN!
