It is important that we never forget the suffering of the Kurds under Saddam (and under NATO member Turkey). Saddam may have killed more than 100,000 Kurds. Turkey also killed tens of thousands of Kurds. I worry, as a supporter of Kurdish national aspirations, that the current alliances of Kurdish political parties in Iraq will harm their future ties with the Arabs of the region. This report remembers the survivors of Saddam's
massacres.
