Greater Kurdistan

[Loki]

I think it has historical legitimacy.

Kurds come from an ancient Middle Eastern people from the region of Corduene. If Turkey wants peace they should give up that corner which is almost 100% Kurdish anyway.

It was part of the Armenian Empire:

I agree here,i mean why would they even want it? do they want to get a kurdish majority at some point? just leave the kurds alone and let them take care about their own country,,when in the same country the turks have to give them all kinds of rights

[Queen B]

I am never in favor of having an independent state, just because the majority is of another ethnicity. So if this is Turkey's land, should stay as such.
The biggest mistake of Turkey, is not that they don't give a small land to let them create a country, but they don't recognize Kurds as a minority.
Kurds is a big percent of Turkey's citizens, which numbers 15 millions.
If they aren't treated as 2nd class citizens and they are treated as a minority, neither them would like to form a new country, actually.

If they allow the Kurds a land, Turkey will truly become great again.

The Kurds deserve their own land. Ancient Greeks even acknowledged them.

Today's Greeks , too.
But why any country (yeah, including Turkey) should ''just give up'' their land?

[ficuscarica]

I think they should have their own state, Kurdistan, yep.

If they loose more than they gain,then they should give it up.In my opinion kurds "drag Turkey down"

Besides,it is a huge country,and soon they will start to become important minorities in big towns like Istanbul,,and then you have real problems

[Hurrem sultana]

I had a friend she was kurdish,and she never said that she was from Turkey,she always used to say Kurdistan...they identify with it,let them have it

Giving a new country to the Kurds is about as responsible as giving one to the gypsies.
