In recent years, Kurdish nationalists and groups like the PKK and YPG have been putting more pressure on Assyrian Christians who prefer to stay out of regional wars and conflicts. The Assyrians, in particular, are suffering because Kurdish nationalists are insisting that they join the fight for their cause. They are also attempting to recruit Assyrian men and young people to battle against the Syrian and Turkish governments, which is obviously not a good situation for such a small minority. Additionally, the KRG in Iraq is taking over their lands, and a similar situation has occurred in NW Syria. Things have gotten to the point where Assyrians are now seeking help from Turkey.

What are the changes of 140,000 Assyrians in Iraq holding territory against 4.7+ million Kurds?
