BEIRUT (AP) — Kurdish fighters captured more than a dozen villages from the Islamic State group in heavy fighting across northeastern Syria, an activist group and a Kurdish official said Monday.

The fighting in the mainly-Kurdish Hassakeh province came as diplomats at a Paris conference tried to agree on a global strategy to fight the extremist group, which has captured large tracts of territory in Iraq and Syria.

Kurdish fighters have been repelling the advances of the Islamic State militants for more than a year in northern Syria. The battle-hardened Kurdish force, known by its acronym YPK, has been the most successful at fighting the Islamic State group, which has routed Iraqi and Syrian armed forces.

“With respect to the Kurds, they are a warrior nation that is politically moderate, has proven they can be politically committed, and is worthy of statehood,” Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said in late June.

Since then, the Islamic State terrorist group has continued to wreak havoc in Iraq. The Kurds, a historically maligned and stateless minority, have borne a large share of the responsibility for fighting the jihadists as they threaten the Kurdish semiautonomous region and the ethnic minorities living there.

Netanyahu has few soil to give away. And I don't believe he would increase his popularity among the Israelis by pledging Jewish soil to the Kurds.

Netanyahu is right, the Kurds deserve their own state.
 
You bet---as long as it's not anything that Israel lays claim to. It's easy to give away someone else's territory.
