    Just listened to an expert trying to explain what’s going on now in Syria.

    You know, Kurds, Turks, Daesh, Assad, Russians, Americans, Rebels…..

    Er, yeah. What was the middle bit again? 😕

    Sounds a little like this, sadly;

    “The Schleswig-Holstein question is so complicated, only three men in Europe have ever understood it. One was Prince Albert, who is dead. The second was a German professor who became mad. I am the third and I have forgotten all about it.”

    It’s a classic case of “be careful what you ask for”, many people inside and outside Syria didn’t want Assad and what we now have is worse.

    With luck the Kurds will gain a homeland, complexity is the Turks are very much against and the oil fields in Northern Iraq are in Kurdish territory.

    The Middle East is extra-ordinarily complicated and the vast areas of desert combined with nomadic peoples make the notion of borders and countries very arbitary.
