I think this says a lot about the "eminent threat"

The Kurds are known for being the best fighters in the Middle East, and they work as guns for hire. The Patriotic Union of Kurdistan has a long standing feud with the Kurdistan Democratic Party, who joined up with Iraqi troops.

Some of it also goes back to wars against Iran, and the Turks.

It's confusing, but I think all this stuff is VERY relevant to forming an opinion based on something other then distrust and dissent.
