Kurdish help

The July 7 article, Kurdish militia proving to be reliable partner, warmed my heart. I support the Kurds and our friendship with them even though Turkey is skeptical.

The column says we might have found a reliable partner on the ground, which we desperately need. Col. David Hunt in his book, On the hunt, said air support cannot win a war; we need troops on the ground. We’ve found each other now. Why the Kurds have been ostracized for years, I don't know. They are the help we need.
