Somehow, I think the Kurds are not going to be winning any popularity contests this year.

as if they win any now.  They are the bastards of the middle east.  They have more than a few of the only cities in Iraq that isn't currently fighting an insurgancy, and are enjoying being out from underneath a brutal dictator.

Yet the turks and Iraqis to the south shun them.

Good on them!

No. That is the Palestinian method, not the Isreali method.

The fact that there are Israelis there does not mean that Israel is training them. Ex-military personel are training different forces (military, security, body guards etc) all over the world as private merceneries. They used to be quite popular in south and center america.

Israel would have a real problem dealing with the kurds due to their relations with Turkey. Turkey has a wide military and economical cooperation with Israel and the good relationship is extremely important to Israel (not to mention very delicate). Such a thing will not be possible without their approval.

Israelis, not the IDF. They have people world wide, including arab countries that train security forces. Nothing new.

I wouldn't care if the IDF was training them. Good for them. You can't expect a state that everybody except the US hates to not help insurgents against their enemies.

The Kurds are insurgents?

Is there anyone here that thinks Israel is training the Kurds in order to overthrow the Iraqi government?

They've been fighting the old Iraqi government for awhile. I would call that insurgency.

I don't believe being attacked by the government constitutes insurgency. I don't believe resistance constitutes insurgency.  I believe it involves having an offensive strategy.

The word is misused.

Seems everyone is denying that report. Anyone actually watch that program and know what constitutes this "evidence"?
