I'm not really sure if independence would benefit them or not; I've only heard a little bit about it, so I know very little about the situation as a whole, but I figure whatever choice they make should be for the good of the whole.
I'm actually more curious as to why they're considering this, now? Is it because of the Isis debacle, or something else, entirely? I'm surprised they haven't made a bid for freedom before this point, so I figure there must have been a major change in the last year or so. (Forgive my ignorance of the situation; I barely pay attention to politics, even those of my own country. I should change that, I know...)
CT: I get the feeling today is going to be a lazy one...at least until evening. I always seem to be have more energy then, anyway...
