Salam Fatma,fatma betül said:
Your name reminds me my mother, she is also Fatma, I love her so much, I have not seen her for a long time. I am in Europe and she is in Kurdistan. Where is Kurdistan? OHHHHHHHHHHH, Kurdistan is the land of the Kurds/ Kurdish. It is located in the heart of the Middle East. It was an intergrated land from the first day Allah created to 1916. In 1916 the British and French colonialists divided Kurdistan in to FOUR parts. And they gave each part to this four contries; Turky (20 Million Kurds now), Iran (8 Million Kurds now), Iraq (Million Kurds now) and Syria (3 Million Kurds now). In the four contries the Kurdish have been suppressed and persicuated since 1916. They cannot study in the God-given Kurdish language. I am from Iraqi Kurdistan. In Iraq we have experienced a very disaterous and bloody history. 182,000 Kurds were Anfaled in 1987-1988; they were buried alive by Saddam Hussein's Regime. 5,000 Kurds were killed by chemical weapons in the Halabja town in 16 March 1988 10:55 AM. 4,000 Kurdish villages where destoyed. And many other crimes have been committed against the Kurds.
There othe muslim nations who are suffering all over teh world, like our brothers and sisters in Bosnia, Palastine, Chichan. But the problem of Kurdish people is totally different since other muslim nations have been persicuated by non-muslims but the Kurds have been perscuated by Arabs, Turks, and Persians, who seem to be Muslim people!!!
PKK:
PKK is a millitary Kurdish party that strives to achieve a united great independent Kurdistan. Their ideology is communism. They opperated terroristic opperations inside Turkey against theTurkish military forces. The founder and leader of PKK was Abdullah Ocalan, who was an active Islamic youth in 1970s. Some say he memorized all the Holy Quran. But later, after he saw the Kurds were repressed and supressed by the Muslim Turkish, Arabic and Persian people, he decided to resort to communist ideology to collect the power of Kurdish people and to eventually bring about freedom and independence for the Kurds. That is because he saw Muslim people persicuated Muslim Kurds, he decided to forget about Islam. I do approve his effors to achieve the rights of the Kurds that ALLAH has given to any nation, such as; studying and speaking in your God-given language, having the right of an independent country, not to be repressed by other nations, etc. However, I DO NOT approve his resorting to Communist ideology since we have Islam which, I think, is perfect. And communism, on the other hand, is a too weak ideology to bring happiness for the Russian themselves, not other nations.
