The young kurds union, a union for all kurds, well anyone is welcome off course including kurdistanis (Kurds,Assyrians,Turkmen,Arabs). We the young kurds are the future generation of kurdistan and it's up to us to keep up and improve what has been began! I just want to start off by giving a bit of information about myself.
I'm a kurdish male 19 years old at the moment and on a mechanical engineer course, I have great interest in politics, specifically kurdish politics. I have been reading about kurdish politics from the early days to present, I see a trend in young kurds who seem to blame everyone but kurds for the failure of achieving a kurdish state, well as far as I know the kurds were ruled by local tribe men and shaikhs who were not necessarily very smart politically and made very stupid decisions, this is not to say that we should only blame our self but we played our part in self destruction too, anyways I believe that we should not focus too much on the past and focus more on the future.
We all know that money spins the world around. What makes money? well it's obvious some countries have resources and some offer services, for example a country like suadia Arabia which has a decent economy fuled purely by oil income, and on the other side there are countries with no oil like the UK for example, the UK however offer services by means of getting paid to give their knowledge, what I mean is the UK is a technologically advanced country. The UK offers many services such as telecommunication,banking,oil companies etc. Now let's get back to kurdistan, we all know that kurds sits on a lot of oil (an estimated 45 billion barrels of oil and 100-200 TCF of gas) but the problem is that we the kurds don't have the technology to use this oil so we have to pay companies to do it for us, although this is not that bad of an option for us as kurds (I will explain later on). We must find a balance in which we can handle a small amount of our oil and take small steps to taking over the load.
Sometimes however there are some exceptions for example kurdistan is in constant need of international backing simply becuase we are landlocked, and like I said money spins the world and so by offering business deals to countries like the UK and USA we are able to receive backing simply becuase these companies would not like to lose on their investments. This year two big american companies invested in kurdistans oil, I was very happy about that becuase it's another sign that shows this time kurdistan will not see another anfal. Having said that, the right approach for kurdistan is to offer greats deals in return for international backing and recognition, this will put us on the map!
...... to be continued.
