You can't compare SL and Kurdistan, which has many things happening for her. First and foremost it's ethnic empowerment and they want freedom from Arabs, Turks and Persians. They have lots of oil to buy allies and backers. They are historical rulers of not just Kurdistan but many parts of the Middle East.
They will play Turkish, Arab, Israeli and Persian rivalry to their advantage as the case already. They working with the Israelis whilr selling oil to the Turks.
The Israelis are interested in an independent Kurdistan for many reasons. First they need friends in the region and secondly they hope by creating Kurdistan republic at least Arabs will be too preoccupied with that and forget Israeli settlements.
SL has none of those factors on its side just poor event or temporary association with Britain.
