The Kurds only really consider the United States to be an ally in their attempt at statehood in a relatively weak fashion. This is because the US has been the only country that has intervened in Kurdish affairs and did not repeatedly try to discriminate against them or commit genocide against them (a relatively low-bar). Additionally, the Kurds were the real winners of the Iraq War, which the US started, because it resulted in Kurdish autonomy from Iraq. However, Kurds are wary of the strong Turkish-US alliance, which impedes the independence or autonomy of Turkish Kurdistan.
