The current Kurdish actions against Iran, co-ordinated by British Intelligence, are merely part of the propoganda lead-up to Blair's war against Iran, a war that will begin with a massive bombing campaign, almost certainly nuclear, that will kill millions.
The Kurds have lost any and all claim to victimhood with their choice of political allies. Of course, once Blair has fully used them to achieve his next objective, the Kurds will be left to their well deserved fate, friendless across the planet. Anyone who makes a deal with the Devil should understand that the deal only ever benefits one party, namely the Devil.

And what about Saddam Husseins' genocide? It is on record that he slaughtered 300,000 Iraqi during his 24 years in power most of whom were found in mass graves.

The only possible solution seems to invade Iran before the make an atomic bomb and give it to Bin-Laden so that he can detonate it in London.
Invade Iran

You seem to be saying that it's OK for the Iranian government to kill and torture Kurds in Iran, because people who happen to share their ethnicity supported the war in Iraq.
It's the same logic that the Nazis used to justify the holocaust on the basis that "The Jews killed Christ". It's the same logic that British racists use to justify attacks on Muslims on the basis that "The Muslims carried out the London bombings".
There is no single monolithic entity called "The Kurds", any more than there is a single monolithic group called "The Jews", "The Muslims", "The Iraqis", "The Palestinians", "The Hutus", "The Tutsis", "The British" or "The Londoners". Like every community in the world, the Kurdish people are an enormously diverse group, some of whom supported the war in Iraq, and some of whom didn't. A fair few aren't interested in politics at all.
There will never be peace until we can get away from the idea that it's OK to attack random members of a particular community simply because other members of that community have done something we disagree with.
