Will Iran, Turkey and Iraq enter a war against Barzani?

[Fenasi Kerim]

Can you guys stay on topic instead of talking about Turkic and Iranic names.

 

[Hack-Hook]

ela dayan taylan etc these are the name recently banned , before Ahmadinejad there was no problem with names and so many people have Turkish name but since Ahmadinejad Turkic parent can only choose Arabic or Persian for their child otherwise their child wont Receive ID card

I wonder from where you get that nonsense ?

Erdogan is silently watching how Kurds are encircling Syria-Turkey border. His silence is strange....

Erdogan stated that in the past KRG received a 2 billion USD loan from Turkey. Due to this money, Barzani was able to pay the salaries of the government employees. That is just to show you how dependent on Turkey Barzani really is. I know that my opinion isn't shared by the majority of Turks but I am convinced that we would benefit from an independent Kurdistan in North Iraq, however, in Syria things are different. It is no coincidence that Barzani and Erdogan have similar views regarding North Syria.

Western analysts usually argue that Turkey will suffer the most from this decision. This is not right. It is Iran who will lose the most. North Iraq is part of Iraq which has a Shia-led government in Baghdad. What people don't see: Kurds in Sulaimania are pro-Iran, albeit Sunni, and against this referendum. This group will be vanished politically if Kurdistan becomes real. People won't tell you but even some Turkmen groups are supporting this referendum like those living in Erbil.

This is the ME with daily changing coalitions and sympathies. It wouldn't be surprising if Kurdistan becomes Turkey's closest ally in the long term; after all, Turks and Kurds may fight, but it is a fact that they are culturally related to each other (living in a state for over 500 years...).

Why go to war ,those 3 country only need to put a siege on Iraqi Kurdistan and Kurds themselves hand over barezanni on a plate

the problem is if they dont go into war, later, US and Western powers might sell them ground to air missiles as an independent country which will make it way harder to attack them

Iraqi Turkmens don't support the referendum neither Barzanistan. Iraqi Turkmen front (political party) and some other political figures are Erdogan loyalists who support Barzani above Baghdad, whom are willing to put a Kurdish flag on their head to appease Turkey's government which has been friendly to Barzani for years. There was a Turkmen politician who favored for Peshmerga to take Tal Afar and raise Kurdish flag on top of it, is that some sort of joke? This is called an Erdogan loyalist, dollar worshipper or anything other than a nationalist, for all I care we will tag them as Kurds as well.

However, Turkmen's political factions hold no military power. Turkmen PMU units are not related to Turkmen political parties and are strongly against KRG.

Britain and Americans attacked Iraq in 2003,
you divided and destroyed Iraq with your bombs
you support separatists in Middle East.
you can not hide behind words more
we judge you base on your Actions
you came to here to divide countries in 2003

Huh....but the U.S/U.K invasion of Iraq was a good thing for your country Iran, since Saddam was your biggest stumbling block and nemesis in the region. We removed your biggest upstacle in influencing the region. Without our intervention in Iraq, there will be no proxy war of influence in the region between KSA and Iran, since Saddam would have been an upstacle to Iran's furthering it's influence in the Arab world. So you also need to look at things from a positive side.

However, I already said before that our invasion and toppling of Saddam was our biggest mistake post 9/11 , since it destroyed the balance of power that existed in the region between Iraq/Iran/KSA, thereby causing instability. I think we should have left Saddam continue his rule over Iraq. It was a mistake to remove him and his sunni baathist regime. We should have at least maintained the sunni baathist regime after Saddam was toppled. Our biggest mistake was dismantling the regime and party altogether. That was a big mistake.

Are you talking on behalf of UK or US, what do you mean by we?

 

[AZADPAKISTAN2009]

Should have rephrased it in a better way. I meant western powers who intervened in Iraq. Mainly U.S and U.K (and to a lesser extent other NATO countries like Australia, Italy , Poland etc who also took part in the war).

Iraq's central government in Baghdad ordered the country's Kurdish region to hand over all border crossings and airports to federal government control late Sunday night, hours before the region is set to carry out a controversial referendum on support for independence.

Kurds could have continued to live with semi autonomy but there greed and treacherous nature will mean either they will be starved out or physically punished.

The rest of the west (like Australia, Italy, Poland etc) don't make much sense here, but US did it great accordingly with their interests, I question UK's gains here lol
