How many Kurds are Muslim, Baron?
Lets see you produce some credible evidence to documentary proof which states that the majority of Kurds are not Muslims.
Thats the point of this exchange. The PKK leadership is a sideshow. The PKK is a sideshow.
Now, either produce some evidence or admit you got it wrong.
However, you won't, now will you? You're too much of an Islamophobe to ever admit you made a mistake.
Oh, look another article which makes the same point:
Quote:Iraq's three-way demographic divide didn't cause the current crisis, but it's a huge part of it. You can see there are three main groups. The most important are Iraq's Shia Arabs (Shiiism is a major branch of Islam), who are the country's majority and live mostly in the south. In the north and west are Sunni Arabs. Baghdad is mixed Sunni and Shia. And in the far north are ethnic Kurds, who are religiously Sunni, but their ethnicity divides them from Arab Sunnis.

Oh, and another:

Oh, look, yet another article:
Quote: scholars estimate that at least two-thirds of the Kurds in Turkey nominally are Sunni Muslims, and that as many as one-third are Shia Muslims of the Alevi sect. Unlike the Sunni Turks, who follow the Hanafi school of Islamic law, the Sunni Kurds follow the Shafii school. Like their Turkish counterparts, adult male Kurds with religious inclinations tend to join Sufi brotherhoods. The Naksibendi and Kadiri orders, both of which predate the republic, have large Kurdish followings in Turkey although their greatest strength is among the Kurds of Iran. The Nurcular, a brotherhood that came to prominence during the early republican years, also has many Kurdish adherents in Turkey.
Whereas the number of Kurds belonging to the Alevi sect of Shia Islam is uncertain, the majority of Alevi are either Arabs or Turks. Historically, the Alevi lived in isolated mountain communities in southeastern Turkey and western Syria. The Kurdish Alevi have been migrating from their villages to the cities of central Anatolia since the 1950s. Whereas Kurdish and Turkish Alevi generally have good relations, the competition between Alevi and Sunni Turks for urban jobs led to a revival of traditional sectarian tensions by the mid-1970s. These intertwined economic and religious tensions culminated in a series of violent sectarian clashes in Kahramanmaras, Corum, and other cities in 1978-79 in which hundreds of Alevi died.

Ah, another:
Quote: Another most important factor in Kurdish society has been religion, Islam. Alongside the tribal ties are strong religious loyalties, especially to the sheikhs, aghas, and to the local leaders of religious brotherhoods. Although the Kurds are known as a highly religious people, this characteristic is comparatively recent, dating from the first half of the nineteenth century, when two religious Muslim orders, the Qadiris and the Naqshbandis, began to spread rapidly throughout Kurdistan.[47]

Ubeydullah described Kurdish society as Muslim and Christian whereas almost all the Kurds were in fact Muslim.
