I have a question. I know that there is a war going on in Turkey right now with the Kurdish. I am not sure why but i think it is territorial reasons. I mean every war is about Territory like the Prussian war.

The very use of the word "territorial" denotes only a piece of this conflict, at least in my sometimes humble opinion!
Thus, territory, is one thing to one group and another to another group?
It is all another childish view of the world from both sides! That is, unless your side is being attacked every day from some "Big Brother"?
Bombs, and burning, do not make for solid "brotherhood!"
So, in reality, I have no side! But, being an American, and knowing something about the "desire" for "Liberty, equallity, etc." amongst neighbors, I will pull for the "opresessed" most of the time!
Not everywar is about territory and I dont think that one can call the conflict between Turkey and the Kurds a war. Thouhg that is as an outsider, its a mtter of perspective of course.
