Why not an independent Kurdistan? Why must we accept the national boundaries drawn up at the end of World War II as eternal?

But the fact remains that gestures like this do draw attention to injustices (which are much more the issue than some notional "independence"), and I applaud her for that. Even though the personal risk was minimal- they wouldn't arrest a high- profile international star. I suppose it's on a level with Black Power salutes at the Olympics.
