IRAQ: In country's north, a youth-led 'Kurdish spring' blooms

They want a piece of Iraq, Iran, Turkey and Syria. Good luck to them!

First of all N.Iraq is land-locked and has no fundament (economy) to be an independent state. Apart from all other calculations.
There are much bigger things at play, and a nation-state called Kurdistan is not on the agenda of the region.

Turkey dominates the economy of the KRG region, where an estimated 80 percent of goods sold are imported from Turkey.
Fifty-five percent of the foreign companies registered in the KRG region are Turkish.

The NYTimes rightfully calls the relative prosperity in N.Iraq Turkish-bred

So, before debating about anyone getting anything from Turkey you should look at the facts and see, that we own them already at their fundament (economy).

I could live with the below pic of Kurdistan and there have been other landlocked nations that have made it! Switzerland for example!

Right now they are the most successful part of Iraq! The most stable part of Iraq! The only place in Iraq Westerns are vacationing. They also have a lot of Black Crack (precisely why Iraq won't give it up without a fight). And right now they govern the region like an independent state! The Kurdish leaders fear the rath of Iraq, Turkey, Iran and Syria if they declare independence!

Ekrem is full of shit, if a war torn poverty stricken third world shit hole like Yemen and Pakistan can have their own countries, no reason why the Kurds have not. Like you said Kurdistan is the most successful, peaceful, safest part of Iraq, Westerners have been vacationing there and making investments, Irbil has their own international airport separate from Baghdad, foreigners prefer to deal with the Kurds instead of the Arabs. They totally deserve their own country, Ekrem is just talking out of his ass because he hates the Kurds.
