The article presents a provocative analysis of the situation concerning Kurdish militias in the context of a potential US-led invasion of Iran. It highlights how both the US and Israel seem to be positioning Kurdish forces as the frontline troops for this operation, leveraging longstanding connections that the CIA and Mossad have with Iranian Kurds in Iraq. The author, Michael Winiarski, questions whether the Kurds will find themselves making sacrifices for a cause that may ultimately betray their interests, given the historical precedent of abandonment by superpowers.
