the problem is always a glass half empty or half full. the us has screwed them by playing power politics, but it is turkey and iraq/britain who did the real hurt. dont confuse meddling with extermination and the refusal to give them a state. The us did not do it to them. The us is not the worst player. If you really want to go for bat for the kurds talk turkey and the ottoman empire. Turkey is doing what it knows best: no radars for the US no air force for the US unless the kurds are not supported. the germans gave the turks the weapons to fight the kurds. I am sure the US wants an independent kurdish state becasue that would be preferable for the US, but any support for it is squelched by turkey
