Sunni & Shia seeking security & peace in Kurdistan.

Just heard this story on NPR. The Shia and Sunni citizens are fleeing the violence in the south and, apparantly, living together in relative harmony with each other and the Kurds. I found the story both tragic and heartening. Tragic in that the Iraqis of the south are now refugees in their own country and heartening in that average, ordinary, Sunnis, Shia, and Kurds can live together in peace.

As sectarian violence rages across much of Iraq, tens of thousands of Arab families are searching for a safe place to live. Notwithstanding decades of Sunni Arab rule over the Kurdish minority, many Arabs are now finding peace and security in Kurdistan, in northern Iraq.
