Murdered in cold blood for the crime of speaking Kurdish. Turkey ethnically cleanses us, displaces us, denies us, silences us, steals our culture, language, history and identity at every turn as it constantly bombs us and calls us terrorists. Boycott travel to Turkey!

We are not safe anywhere. Fascist Turks will attacks Kurds with impunity and get away with it. After all for over a century their government has been slaughtering Kurds to total global silence. The west has continued to protect Turkish fascism against the Kurds too.

It is an absolute travesty what the Turkish and jihadist occupation of Afrin has done since their invasion of the region in 2018. NATO member Turkey is creating a jihadist infested region after ethnically cleansing Kurds from Afrin and offering emptied Kurdish homes to terrorists

A full ground invasion has been launched by Turkey in Southern Kurdistan. 300 tanks, an extra 1000 ground troops have entered the region in the past 10 days. What are they doing there other than ethnic cleansing, terrorising civilians and villagers, and ecological violence?

A Kurdish slogan which

Another example of settler colonialism towards the Kurds. Afrin was a Kurdish region with a population of over 400000 occupied by Turkey and allied jihadists in 2018. Now a number of “charities” are building settlements so that invading jihadists and their families can settle.

Escaping Anfal we lived in Iran for years in refugee camps, in poverty, without IDs while my father was arrested and tortured for being a Kurd and peshmerga. Iran imprisons, tortures, massacres, executes Kurds. It bombs us and still has a fatwa against us Kurds. Iran is our enemy

13th of July 1930. 40,000 massacred. Their crime? Being Kurds who rebelled against the Turkish regime, demanding Kurdish rights and refusing to be subjugated to the racist policies of the Turkish regime. Kurdish history is rife with such massacres.
Our resistance is legitimate.

Turkey will now allow any sort of Kurdish power or political gains. 100s of Kurdish mayors and democratically elected MPs and members of pro-Kurdish parties are languishing in jail. Demirtaş is facing 142 years in jail. Turkey is an undemocratic, fascist, racist regime.

Mahsa Amini. Her colonizer’s name for her. Not her Kurdish name which her mother screamed on her still fresh grave. Not Jina, not the Kurdish woman, not the non-Persian, not the long oppressed minority and radicalized woman from whose blood the Iranian fascists are profiting from
Streets in Vienna and Frankfurt are to be named after Mahsa Amini, whose death in police custody last year sparked protests across Iran.
