“It is time for the international community to work for the creation of an independent Kurdistan as they did once for the Jews after the Holocaust.

This type of anger was already starting to build in Syria and al-Qaeda would capitalize on it.”

“Pakistan is an Islamic country and the victim of an Easter terrorist attack. Groups like Isis or in this case the Taliban are not about religion. No more than the KKK is about Christianity.
