Who perpetrated the kurdish genocide?

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.


Did some of the people in Saddam Hussein genocide survive?

Yes, many. Kurds and Shiites were far from being wiped out in Iraq. Hussein never came close to killing them all, assuming that was indeed his intention. And even if he could have killed them all in Iraq, he could still do nothing against the Kurds in Turkey and the Shiites in Iran. Rather than a genocide, I think it is more likely a case of a dictator pummeling people because he did not like them, and because he could.
