Best Answer

The Anfal Campaign, which is the largest Kurdish genocide in recent history, was perpetrated by Saddam Hussein's Iraq. However, there have been more minor massacres perpetrated by the Turkish, Iranian, and Syrian governments. Currently, there are genocidal targetings of Kurdish religious minorities (like the Yazidi) by the ISIL.
