Kars’ın Digor ilçesinde 14 Ağustos 1993 tarihinde halka yönelik koruculuk dayatması, gıda ambargosu ve ev baskınlarına karşı düzenlenen yürüyüşe yönelik silahlı saldırının üzerinden 33 yıl geçti. Katliamı gerçekleştirenler ceza almadı.

He loved Japan and, somewhat surprisingly, even defended its strict adherence to rules. Yet he would also say, “When I die, I want to be lying in my village, beneath the sun and beneath a walnut tree that I planted myself.”
Murat Çiçek’s death cannot be understood as an isolated case of someone dying in detention. His story only acquires its full meaning within the immigration regime that Japan has imposed for nearly thirty years, particularly on Kurdish asylum seekers. At the center of that regime are several interlocking factors.

A few highlights from Ilham Ahmed's online press conference:
The Syrian Security Forces enter Qamishli and Hasakah for the integration process. Once the integration is complete, they leave, and the Kurdish security forces handle local security.
The governor of Hasakah will be appointed upon their recommendation.
Border guards will be from the region.
The members of the civil administration will be the Kurds.
The representatives of the northeast will be in the central gov.
The agreements have been consulted with the intl community, the KRG, and the Kurds in Turkey.
The Congress should continue its act so that the Kurds are protected.
The displaced should safely return to Afrin Sere Kaniye, and Aleppo's two Kurdish neighborhoods.
The Kurds were able to protect themselves with the support of the Kurds everywhere and Kurdish friends international.
The struggle has not ended, Kurds will continue their civic democratic struggle.
There have been no constitutional recognitions yet. A Rojava delegation will travel to Damascus to negotiate on constitutional rights and Kurdish participation in parliament.

Ara ara kafama bir şey takıldığında dönüp baktığım açık erişim bir kaynak bırakayım. Çoğunlukla ulusal mesele olarak düşünülen Kürt meselesinin bölgesel ve küresel kaynaklarını hesaba katarak oluşturulmuş bir okuma. 2022'de @SuncaJan kaleme almıştı.

At the InnPeace Roundtable, @SuncaJan used South (Iraqi) Kurdistan and Rojava to show how modern nation-states map the world as a battlefield shaped by colonial violence, urging peace beyond the state through plural, autonomy-based coexistence free from domination.

PKKyê xwe fesih kir. Êdî di vê pêvajoyê de, dê reş û spî derkeve holê. Di 20 salên dawî de, gelê kurd û hemû muxalif û endamên siyaseta legal ên PKKyê hemû tişt bi inîsîyatifa gêrilayan ve berdabûn. Vê yekê qadeke konforê ava kiribû, bi taybet jî ji bo rewşenbîr û muxalifên PKKyê

Here is a non-fun fact: ever since France occupied Algeria, it destroyed its crops and took over fertile lands which used to grow wheat, dates and barely to grow wine grapes. That is why there was so much wine production.

It was supposed to be the weekend that Öcalan would make a call for a road towards peace and democracy but instead, the state is robbing Kurds of yet another elected mayor, of course leading to fierce protests in the streets in #Van. #Kurdistan #Turkey
📹 Tensions escalate in Van after the government replaces the city's elected mayor with a trustee. Protesters demand accountability, with clashes and arrests reported. More details:

🇹🇷En Turquie, contrairement à 2013, même les plus fervents partisans d'une paix avec le PKK restent très prudents. Et pas sûr que les maires CHP d'Istanbul réduites au même traitement que les mairies kurdes voient les jours à venir avec "sérénité" !

Jolani et la révolution.
🧵The Syrian Revolution started in 2011. Initially, the fight was against the Syrian regime, but by late 2011, additional obstacles emerged, Jolani being a primary one of them. In many ways he oppressed the revolution, and was despised by everyone.
