The Iraqi Kurds are a separatist group. They are nothing like the Iranian Kurds that are not separatists and want to remain part of Iran. In fact, they don't trust the Iraqi Kurds and if anyone would have bothered to ask them about this hairbrained plan they would have said it wouldn't work.
Trump was right and it proves the lack of Western analysts' understanding of the ME. I place this ignorance on par with that of their level of understanding about the Chicoms. Trump needs advice from real Iranians and Chinese that know their own situations better than some American Western educated know it all that did not experience growing up and living under these repressive authoritarian regimes.
