I'm really not sure where exactly the Ark was placed at in the mountain. There are different sites where people are saying where it is, but that looks like it.

I've done a minor update, mainly removing broken images. If you have images of places that don't have one, please point me towards it. Thanks.

The aiport in Irbil now has daily passenger flights.


There is more information on this page...
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Erbil_International_Airport

Also, on http://www.erbil-airport.net/ if you click on the link to the photo gallery (on the left side) there pictures of the area and the airport.
To see the pictures of the aiport go to "Dev.&Reconstruction" then "aiports."

Ok I understand what you want to say but you have to understand what people understand what your are writing.

If any one said Kurdistan people understand that Kurdish State... Not Kurdish Cultural Regions and Cities... One an other... What is "Cities"??
There are Turkish Cities.. Not Kurdish.. If you said populatian 680 000 Kurdish people live at these cities but 2.400.000 Kurdish people live in Istanbul.. So can you add Istanbul to Kurdish Cities too?

More than 2 million Turkish people live in Berlin.. Can we say that Turkistan city...

In other way "istan" mean use mostly the states name... Like Pak-istan,
Ermen-istan, Kazak-istan... But these place are civilizatians... Many Kurdish live in Iran, Iraq, Syria.. Even Germany, France... Can you say these place are Kurdistan too?

I think you have already know what people have understand what you're written...

http://news.google.com/news?hl=en&um=1&ct=title&ie=UTF-8&q=Diyarbakir+Turkey

This is the right link what the true is...

I want to end with one of famous words of Ataturk's
"Peace at home peace in the world"

I don't know. I appreciate your work but, I think it would be better to call it "Kurdish Regions" rather than "Kurdistan".
"Kurdistan" makes it sound like a political nation with a government etc. while "Kurdish regions" has the meaning of a group of areas home to an ethnic culture or race regardless of which countries' borders they are in.

This is just an opinion. I am not a professional in linguistics to discuss the terminology.

If you guys have a problem with this, don't download it. The beauty of the internet is that we can share what we want, and ignore what we don't want. I'll rename it "Kurdish Regions", if it helps some of you guys sleep better at night.

I've been away for awhile. I have recently come back from a trip and added a lot of pictures, mainly in Iraqi Kurdistan. I have removed a bit too, and added some. See my first post for more details.

Once again, I emphasize, if you have a problem with this, just don't download it, please! I've had enough rude PMs with the previous incarnations of this project.
