In recent dips into the datastreams, I've found many news videos hosted on YouTube which are relevant to the current circumstances in Kurdish Northern Iraq, and Turkey. I felt that they were worth a public note here for others who may be interested in watching. I am not claiming that I agree with or believe everything that is said or shown in these videos, but they do present perspectives not often seen in mainstream American news sources. I leave the filtering up to the viewers.
