An informative piece except the author seems to have conveniently left overwhelming Kurdish history of the city. She briefly touched on the Arabization of the city under Saddam Hussein, who was he Arabizing the city against? Would the 40% of Mosul's Kurdish population which she again conveniently didn't mention have anything to do with that? Imagine what the Kurdish population would have been if this Arabization did not take place? Shame on you for misleading readers and just mentioning Kurds as a side note.
