The tragedy unfolding in Syria right now is confusing to many people. They don’t understand why they should care about the Kurds or be concerned about what is happening on the other side of the world. To them this is just another chapter in an endless series of wars in the Middle East. They are tired of the United States being the policemen of the world.

Yes, people have been fighting and dying in the Middle East since the dawn of civilization. No, that fighting isn’t going to end anytime soon, not as long as religion and oil continues to percolate right beneath the surface. This time it is different. Let’s make this as simple as possible. There are 35 million Kurds in the world, They have no homeland, no country to call their own. There are many Christians among them. They are spread out in Turkey, Iran, Iraq and Syria. The United States promised them that if they helped us crush the ISIS uprising in Syria we would stand by them in their call to become an independent nation, much like we stood by the Jewish people after the Holocaust.Nearly 11,000 Kurds died in the fight against ISIS.

They went door-to-door in Syria to attack the terrorists where they lived. President Trump then claimed victory over the ISIS caliphate even though the Kurds suffered most of the losses in the war.Both Turkey and Russia (a political enemy) wanted the Kurds out of the way for different reasons. Turkey has long resented the Kurds’ desire for an independent state and labeled them terrorists.
