Okay, thank you.
I don't know if anyone would consider themselves an expert in this area—I think Mr. Tabler said he's not an expert on Iraq—but I want to talk a little bit about the role of the Kurds, politically and militarily. I don't know if any of you can address that.
It looks as if they have a new resource agreement with the Iraqi government. I'm wondering how that changes things, or how that impacts things as well.
Please, go ahead.
