✍️ 'The Peshmerga were the backbone of the ground campaign against Isis. Britain should renew its support for the Kurdish region' | Hamish de Bretton-Gordon

On the 38th anniversary of the Anfal genocide campaign, we pay tribute to the thousands of innocent lives that were taken by the former Iraqi regime. We reaffirm that the Iraqi government must fulfill its moral and constitutional responsibility and provide proper reparations to the families of Kurdistan’s martyrs and victims.
I appreciate President Trump’s resolve to end the Iranian conflict peacefully and through diplomacy. However, we have to remember who we’re dealing with in Iran: terrorists, liars and cheaters.
If this reporting is accurate, the idea that we would agree to a moratorium on enrichment rather than a ban on enrichment would be a mistake in my view.
Would we agree to a moratorium for al Qaeda to enrich? No.
The only difference between al Qaeda and the Iranian regime is that one is a Sunni terrorist organization and the other is a Shia terrorist state.
They both have the same goal when it comes to the United States, Israel and the civilized world.
No enrichment means no enrichment. Over 20 nations have peaceful nuclear power programs without enrichment capability. You can have peaceful nuclear power without enrichment, but you cannot make a bomb without enrichment.
Again, no enrichment for Iran. They want a bomb and they cheat.
Israel under my leadership will continue to fight Iran’s terror regime and its proxies, unlike Erdogan who accommodates them and massacred his own Kurdish citizens.
OPINION: “As discussions about Iran’s future intensify with the war, any serious vision for a stable and democratic transition must include the Kurds.”
Some say that the alignment of Reza Pahlavi, the son of Iran’s last shah, with Israel has made him “a useful idiot” and that he has acquired an autocratic streak akin to the ayatollahs https://t.co/DPSIRlM7gl
