Amid rising tensions in the Middle East, there is now a possibility of opening a new front against Iran. According to reports, the Iranian Kurdish armed groups in Iraq are preparing units that can be sent inside Iran if needed. It is being said that this possible action may also get the support of the US.
Where do the Kurds live?
After World War I and the collapse of the Ottoman Empire, the Kurds were promised their own country, but that promise was never fulfilled. Many Kurds attribute this to the Sykes-Pico agreement of 1916, which divided the borders of the Middle East in such a way that the Kurds were divided into different countries. In many countries, the Kurdish community faced discrimination for a long time. In many places, restrictions were imposed on speaking their language, celebrating cultural events or even civil rights. For this reason, the demand for Kurdish autonomy intensified, and armed organizations also emerged in some areas.

At one time, Kurdish forces in Syria were America's closest allies in the fight against ISIS. They guarded U.S. military bases and operated camps and prisons that held thousands of ISIS fighters.
But now regional politics is changing. Kurdish-US relations are also seeing a change as the US moves towards the new Syrian government. In the current conditions in the Middle East, it will be important to see whether the Kurdish groups actually become part of a new conflict against Iran.
