meantime k*rds are about to have a referendum to have their independent k*rdistan in the northern iraq
and i bet unlike with the crimean referendum of 2014 everybody and their fucking mother will recognize them blatantly robbing iraqi of their land as a rightful thing to do
>Iraq's Kurds say they are going ahead with plans to hold a referendum on independence in September.

>blatantly robbing iraqi of their land
Iraq doesn't exist. It hasn't existed for thousands of years.
Its just a place Brits put on the map after WWII.
>implying the U.S. will recognize a country that would weaken a vassal state
Also is the referendum condoned by the Iraqi government?
If not the only people that will recognize them are people that hate the U.S., so Russia most likely will :)
