I know it will be a revelation to you when I tell you that there are Kurds and even Iraqis in ENGLAND![]()
You will also be surprised to learn that most return home to Iraq/Kurdistan on an almost annual basis
Once in Iraq/Kurdistan It is not at all unusual for them to arrange marriages between their daughtersand older males - especially if the girls are British born

There are Kurdish communities in the west. But they're not part of civil society. They're not French or British, they're not assimilated to western culture, nor are they ethnically english/french. Their culture doesn't mesh with the french/british culture and the majority stay out of political/cultural life pertaining to those countries unlike other groups. They don't make their countries of origin relevant to you in any way. When iraqis and Kurds begin having substantial political and cultural influence on your societies, then we can talk. Kurdish buisness must stay kurdish buisness. They'll deal with their problems domestically.
