Are we really supposed to believe that we will have an independent state in Iraq?. That will never happen as long as we are surrounded by Muslims and Kurds. These atrocities few days ago were bound to happen sooner or later. Call me crazy but we have a better chance of having an independent state in the west than in Iraq. At least in the west you will be more respected and you will have a voice. I am sick of signing petitions or voting for someone in Iraq so we can have a voice. Last time I checked we elected some people in the parliament . Where is their outcry towards this?. Unless i am in a coma I did not hear any press conference about this. If I knew the Iraqi military were bunch of pussies( excuse my French) we could've had our independence long time ago. I am sorry for ranting like this but I am so ticked off right now.
