Free Kurdistan!

IRBIL, Iraq — Iraqi Kurds voted Monday in a landmark referendum on supporting independence, with initial results confirming predictions of overwhelming support for breaking away from Baghdad, in a move billed by the Kurdish leadership as an exercise in self-determination, but viewed as a hostile act by Iraq’s central government. Baghdad residents strongly criticized the referendum, saying it would raise sectarian tensions and create an “Israel in Iraq.” Neighboring Turkey even threatened a military response. * * * For info on how to make a Rosh Hashana donation to Dry Bones click on http://mrdrybones.com/donate.html
