War is hell, even when supported by the full force and standing of the most powerful military ever in the history of earth. Imagine what it's like when your fighting with a 3rd World Milita. The Kurds have their own agenda. They are currently being made into heroes by the American Media because The American People love a Plucky Underdog. I doubt you would find most of their ideals in line with yours.
If you don't function socially in a military environment where the people are familiar to you culturally AND speak the same language how do you think you will fair amongst people who's culture, values, and language are totally foreign to you? It's mind blowing to me how many people want to go kill terrorist after having sat out killing terrorist for the last decade and a half.
The Kurds love foreign volunteers. When they get you killed they don't run into anyone From your village. You don't matter. It's comical that your considering joining a Militia in Iraq to fight evil but you aren't willing to do the "uphill" fight to get back into the US Mil. If you wanna die for somebody's cause go join The Foreign Legion. At least they feed you.
