04/24/2004: "Iraqi Kurds"

And now for the dog that didn't bark. No, this is not a Sherlock Holmes post. This is about Iraqi Kurds.

I have not been hearing anything about them. So I googled "Iraq Kurd". The only story I saw on the first page about Iraqi Kurdistan itself concerned the adoration of coalition soldiers.

It seems that no news is good news.
