The Neocons and AIPAC orchestrate the war in Iraq based on lies. Iran backed Shia government takes over. Effectively, the war in Iraq enlarged Iranian regimes control over Iraq. Total chaos spreads over the region and American tax payers are short $4 trillion.

The Kurd's have been the US's strongest allies since all this started, so what does the US do now, they thumb their noses at them.

Not just now, for over the last 30 years both parties have abandoned one of our most helpful allies in that region. More reason why the establishment must go.

Interesting, USA is arming and train both Kurds ad Iraqis. They have "advisors" and contractors on both sides. This will be interesting.

but which ever wins, I wonder who will buy the cheap oil?

If Turkey over the decades has not been able to win against their own Kurds, then I do not expect the Iraqis or Iranians to be able do so either. Clashes will continue until the Kurds have forged their own nation, or something similar, recognized and acceptable by all three states.
