To criticize the Turks for defending their national border and cheer on the Hebrews for expanding theirs on the land of the other indigenous people you forgot to mention. The only distinctions the Kurds have, they share with many other indigenous people is that they did not show up by boatloads to occupy and settle someone elses land and by contrast majority of Hebrews do not even live in the said Hebrew mother land and are perfectly happy where ever it is they call home.

Of all the indigenous people in the world today, the Kurds have the distinction of having inhabited the same land for the longest period time and not have a state of their own——even longer than the Hebrews.
