A large quantity of weapons was smuggled into Iran and dispersed to Kurds in the wake of the 12-day conflict that took place in 2025, where thousands of militiamen are expected to launch their uprising “within days” with the support of American and Israeli air superiority, according to ITV News.
Iran may have expected this, as it has been reported that it has launched strikes against the Kurdish regions of the country, as well as in Iraq.
Axios reported on Monday that President Trump had spoken with Kurdish leadership in Iraq over the weekend. It is believed that the Kurds will “come out of the woodwork” and will “rise up” to displace Iranian Islamic rule. This would be the first ground operation conducted since the campaign against Iran began.
Editor's Note: For decades, former presidents have been all talk and no action. Now, Donald Trump is eliminating the threat from Iran once and for all.
