but my point was about pishmarge not Hashad
because the peshmerga have constitutional status in the Iraqi constitution. they need to change their constitution to disband the peshmerga. but that would probably cause another civil war Iraq doesn't need right now..
the Iraqi government controls all the economic levers. and has good relations with Iran and turkey who would help it against the KRG.
the KRG has very little influence or leverage in this. the Iraqi government can easily squeeze them into submission if they went about it in the right way.
The KRG needs an outside power like Iran or turkey to stand up to the Iraqi government. without that they are nothing.
