They did that with the Kurds in Iraq in '91, too. Then dropped them like a hot potato, after which the regime fucked them up good. I hope they remember.

CIA gave up Kurds a couple of weeks ago to ex-ISIS military forces. Now they want Kurds to fight in a country they have no interest in at all.

The Kurds would be fools to take anything from TACO. How many times has the US abandoned them in just the last decade?
