We've been making news documentaries since 2007. The VICE News Archive highlights some of our favorites.VICE News correspondent Thomas Morton traveled to Northern Iraq in 2012 to meet the lovely lady guerrillas of the Kurdish Liberation Movement.In the hills abutting Iran and Turkey, the struggle for a Greater Kurdistan continues for boy and girl alike.

And hopefully find an answer to our own Kurdish Question. Which is, What the fuck is the Kurdish Question?
