The Kurdish referendum is going forward, despite most of the world opposing the non-binding vote on the independence question. The pro-independence campaign will win, but what will the fall out be?   Is Iraq destined for more violence? What about Kirkuk and the disputed territories? Iran and Turkey? Federal Iraq? To unpack these issues, Aaron talks with friend of the pod Michael Stephens, a research fellow at RUSI.
