There are lots of different Kurdish groups , they make lots of different territorial claims , some still want the full 1920s claim which is a very extensive bit of territory .
A small partitioning of land will please some but will not please them all . Those that are not pleased tend to carry on with the violence , plus of course other people will not be happy with the partition and will use violence to get the bit of land they have lost back .
Okay, I misposted (?).
I doubt the PKK would keep attack as fervently if they were given land.
Look at the ASALA and the ASP! They have not made an attack in years!
The fact that it pleases the majority should be reason enough.
Ethnic terrorists can only be truly stopped by their own people.
