Murat brothers

[759852372]

Hi all,

I just wanted to seek clarification on the Murat brothers. I see them being mentioned as Iraqis in some places and Armenians in others. I believe that they were both born in Iraq or lived their for some time.

Does anyone know if they are ethnic Armenians or do they have an Iraqi parent? I considered them Armenians until recently, but now I'm not so sure.

I'm sure some one of the knowledgable members here on the board will be able to clear this up?

They fight out of Germany and were born in Iraq as you stated. They are supposedly Armenian so yes I would consider them white fighters.

"Murat, as tough by inclination as by background (his Armenian parents
fled persecution in Iraq for Bavaria during the first Bush war), looked
as if he'd had enough."
