In Defense of the Kurds

from The Stephen Mansfield Podcast

The Kurds have been loyal American allies for decades — so why are we getting them so wrong? In this episode, Stephen draws on his book "The Miracle of the Kurds" to set the record straight about one of the most misunderstood people in the world: a moderate, resilient ethnicity spread across the Middle East with no nation to call their own, yet fiercely devoted to their identity and their allies. The Kurds have earned America's friendship time and time again — and it's time we gave it to them. Let's reset our perception of the Kurds.Get a copy of "The Miracle of the Kurds:" https://www.amazon.com/Miracle-Kurds-Remarkable-Reborn-Northern/dp/1617950793/ref=tmm_hrd_swatch_0Connect with Stephen:Website: https://stephenmansfield.tv/Instagram: https://instagram.com/mansfieldwrites/X: https://twitter.com/MansfieldWrites
