Welcome to Kurdistan (while it lasts)

Iraq's Kurds want full independence from Baghdad and all the trappings
of statehood, but as Charles Glass reports from Irbil, their political
leaders know that civil war and tragedy would be the inevitable
consequence know the only way to avoid a civil war is to embrace a a
form of federalism
23 November 2004
In a small government office on the edge of the Iraqi Kurdish capital,
three oil paintings show better than words what is driving Iraq
towards separation. The first is a dark circle of old men in
traditional Kurdish costumes seated on the ground. The others depict
two stages in the last great Kurdish tragedy. Refugees trudge a
serpent's path through the mountains in one, and the same refugees sit
forlornly beside open tents in the other.
