Final preparations for Iraqi Kurds’ referendum

The US has warned of unrest in Iraq's Kurdish region in the run-up to Monday's separation referendum. Preparations for the vote are in full swing despite international calls to delay it. Iraq's government maintains the referendum is "illegal", while Turkey and Iran are warning of consequences.
Al Jazeera's Hoda Abdel-Hamid reports from Erbil, the capital of Iraqi Kurdistan.

NimDod Thank you very much Brother 💪🏽

[@amirfahmi1533]

Salehuddin Al Ayubi was a Kurd. If he's alive today, he would be ashamed of today's Kurds for conspiring with Jewish Israel.

[@MrGuyJacks]

Amir Fahmi Saladin's doctor was Jewish lol

[@thorwolfsberg8540]

you are right but Saladin was Turk; just look at the names of his brothers

Greetings from Croatia, we waited thousand years for independence, we know your struggle, good luck.

[@GreeKurdChannelMilan]

If it is one nation that deserves independence. it's clearly the Kurdish people. Biji Peshmerga Biji Kurdistan!!!

[@WitchyWhale]

I hope the Kurdish people get their own country at least.

[@thorwolfsberg8540]

why? I think they should build a country in your land

[@yusofjohan3456]

well think about palestine first. they have been fighting for years

[@WitchyWhale]

The Kurds have been fighting for their own country much longer than the Palestinians.

[@thorwolfsberg8540]

+Ianna Natasha land of Palestinians was stolen illegally, kurds never had a land by they did landgrabbing and ethnic cleansing in norther iraq and syria to build kurdistan

[@thorwolfsberg8540]

+Kurdish Warrior1988 dream on, there is nothing kurdish in Turkey, you kurdified it! there is no single evidence of kurdish history on the whole universe...

[@keithdurant4570]

Does the Kurdish region have enough agriculture and industry to feed and provide work for the population? They are going to need to be very independent when Turkey, Iran, Iraq and Syria close their borders on a land locked nation.

[@kurdyyy6822]

Keith Durant Turkey nor Syria will close borders
Turkey have interests with us economically

[@Umar-ov1hb]

Keith Durant It's a Iraqi kurdish independent, you think that Turkey and Iraq will let them vote for independent and lose their land

[@Simi_gp]

Umar Kurds will keep that la d because US needs it. US stand with the Kurds there aren't any other allies better than the Kurds. Get over it

[@keithdurant4570]

isrrael kumiko You might be referring to Syrian Kurd's however the US has made it clear they do not support a bid by Iraqi Kurd's for independence at this time.

[@z-pandalover2784]

[@thorwolfsberg8540]

[@warsameguhaadbahdoon6401]

Actually, Saddam Hussein burnt down Kurdish villages and arabanized the whole of Northern Iraq. They have all the right to take the land back. Biji Kurdistan.

[@Herodotus__]

Way to go KURDS.. You deserve your own Country.. Those who are educated know well what happened after WW2 and how you were betrayed from having your own Country.. and those who know History know that the KURDISH ppl have been in those regions for Thousand of years !!

[@thorwolfsberg8540]

haha in the history of which planet? kurds were just an iranian tribe living in the iranian mountains. After Turks finally settled in anatolia kurds were placed to the region between iran and Turkey. but kurds made ethnic cleansing after iraq and syria war and replaced the population in north iraq and syria with kurds.
