Kurds, anyone?

Just when I was beginning to think, "I wonder what the Kurds are up to these days?", I stumbled upon this story from AFP:

"Iraq's Kurds are ready to fight to preserve the identity of the ethnically-divided and oil-rich city of Kirkuk in northern Iraq, one of their historical leaders told AFP Thursday"

I'm glad Donald Rumsfeld feels "quite good about how things are going there," because otherwise, I might think we're about to be fighting Sunnis, Shi'ites AND Kurds.
