I listened to two statements as rebellion. One is from Turkey and the other from Northern Iraq.
One of them is from the Kurdistan Democratic Party (KDP), chaired by Masoud Barzani. Let's begin with his statement in which he showed the most serious reaction against the outlawed PKK in the recent years.
What does the PKK want, who does it serve?
“In front of the people of Kurdistan you (PKK) have been the cause of the problems. Nobody, including you, knows what you want. What are you after and who you are put forward by? What have you done, aside from causing problems and obstacles for the Kurdish people? Why don't you go and solve your problems with Turkey?”
The one who wrote this is not from Turkey, but a Kurd from Iraqi Kurdistan. What is the PKK after, and who has it been used by? I think it is a vital question. Besides the political part of the statement, I was highly impressed by the part emphasizing the suffering of the Kurdish people.
“There was nothing left in 500 villages (in the Northern Iraq region because of the PKK) related to life and the people migrated. You did not allow the Kurdistan government to rebuild these villages and deliver service there.
Stirring the lives of Kurds has been your profession. That's why you have been busy annihilating life in many villages in Turkey.
Because of your wrong policies, the people in that region have no rest and hence they choose to migrate. It is time for the people of Kurdistan to know who you are.”
Beware of the increasing suffering of a nation for the last 30 years struggling to exist and survive in Mesopotamia for years.
The KDP is talking about the PKK tyrannizing the Kurds, burning and destroying 500 Kurdish villages in Northern Iraq and on the Turkish border and exiling the Kurds who were living there.
Barzani is one of the people who know the real face of the outlawed PKK. I think for the first time he began to speak so explicitly.
The outcry of Diyarbakır: On whose behalf are you killing?
I listened to the second speech that impressed me by former Diyarbakır deputy and my friend Abdurrahman Kurt.
At a program we attended together on the Kurdish TV channel TRT Kurdi, he said:
“I lived in the district of Sur in Diyarbakır. I know what a historical treasure there was there. The PKK is burning there now. They are ruining our mosques, Turkish baths and churches. On whose behalf? For whom and what are those ditches and mines for? What does the PKK fight for?
My other Kurdish friends and I achieved in the Justice and Development Party (AK Party) more than the PKK could obtain by killing and being killed for 30 years. We neither used guns nor killed people. Kurds obtained their democratic rights in this way. Well, what does the PKK want? On whose behalf does it kill people?"
The outcries of Kurt and Masoud are the voice of the deep conscience of the old Kurdish people.
These are the outcries of a nation which is tired of killing and being killed, being exiled and tyrannized.
Actually the PKK has been harming Kurds just as much as Saddam Hussein, Bashar Assad and Daesh.
The burned villages, the ditches dug, the roads with which mines were paved, houses taken hostage, mountains, planes have turned into graves of the KurdishF people.
The PKK set the streets on fire in order to turn Diyarbakır, mother of cities, apple of the eye of Turks and Kurds into Aleppo and Kobani.
Do not forget it, do not let it be forgotten. Ask the question Kurt and Barzani ask every day: For what does the PKK kill people, on whose behalf does it kill, what is it after?
Ask this question on behalf of Kurds, Turks, Persians, Chaldeans, Yazidis and all the peoples of Mesopotamia. Pray, work and fight for Mesopotamia to have peace, rest and brotherhood again one day.
