I lost the plot back when Chomsky broke with tradition and said it was a good thing the US was dropping bombs in support of the Kurds... I stopped following along then, but I don't think even then I understood that conflict.
Is there a good write-up somewhere that outlines the basics of this?
I've found some document from the PKK about "Democratic Confederation" which my anarchist acquaintances really talk up, but I also thought they were ML's?
that's seriously the vibe I get from the whole thing- is it as simple as the state dept trying to further ethnic conflicts in syria?
