I'm done trying to convince people that it's againts the Christian population interest (I'm 1/4 Mesopotamian Christian myself). Let them have their region (where?), but nor the Kurds or Arabs will protect them. They have no real unity (divided between churches and different loyalties), no real military experience or resources. They will be a big tartget for terrorists and will hasten their exist from the middle east.

Having said that Christians in Kurdistan enjoy special rights, including the right to keep their towns mosque free. Muslims can't buy land in a Christian town nor can we build mosques in their areas. It is the law. Thogh they can buy land anywhere and build a church anywhere, infact they have a massive new church in the center of Erbil.
