Turkey must show the world how PARTITION is done for the sake of her 30 million strong "minority" so that the Republic of Cyprus may learn and follow suit for the Turkish Cypriots with their "TRNC".
The recognition and formation of the "KRET" should be DIRECTLY LINKED to any recognition of the "TRNC" by the EU.
Thanks, Get Real - for showing the other side of the coin, to the Turks... And your nick is very catchy - at least you live up to it...
I'm Kurdish... And I'm from the "Dogu" or "South-East" - and I am not happy about the Turks here trying to paint my people in their chosen colour... Again... As they always try to do...
For starters, there are more than 20 million Kurds in Turkey. More than 5 million in Istanbul alone (known as: the worlds largest Kurdish metropol(!)
)...
We're denied basic human rights - such as speaking our own language, without prosecution, torture or imprisonment... Heck, that's just the start of it... People would and still may "disappear" for owning a Kurdish cassette or VCD... It's illegal, you know... Maybe not on "paper" - but surely in their minds...
You know you Greeks should enforce some of the Turkish laws (forced upon Kurds)...
Next time you hear a man, woman or little child speaking in Turkish, torture him/her and throw him/her into jail - for terrorism...
Maybe that would wake them up from their dandy dreams and sweet sleep...
PAHAHAH what a load of absolute shite!!! SO 1/3 of Istanbul is made up of Kurds? I dont know what city you are living in my friend but having spent a lot of time there i can assure you that your facts are absolutely crap and you are nothing but a propaganda merchant!
Not all Kurds are dying to take land from Turkey and set up Kurdistan, just the animals that support that asshole Barzani who's time is running out anyway, soon he will also wake up in a Turkish prison just like his buddy Ocalan who must be getting lonely by now
Coincidentally, Talabani has stated in different occasions that an independent Kurdish state is nothing but a dream and it is just not feasible, and youre facts about the Kurds being tortured etc. its an extreme over-dramatization of reality, i know MANY Kurds who have been rooted in Turkey for generations and have absolutely no trouble being "Kurdish", Turkey might not have the most "accurate" anti-terror policies but neither does America nor anyone else, being tortured was not exclusive to Kurds alone, plenty of Turks got tortured as well in the past and Turkey is not the only country to do so, so stop your whining...
The cassettes and VCD, you so innocently seem to be holding usually turn out to be propaganda videos for the PKK training camps, and the Kurds that get arrested are not because they are Kurdish but because they are suspected terrorists, you even got your stupid little party now (DTP) which openly supports the actions of the PKK animals, and the families of the murdered people have to sit around and watch those assholes talk on TV and talk about how its Turkey who should bring a non-violent solution to the Kurdish problem, because its not important that they have killed 40,000 people in the last decade!
Let alone having "basic human rights" some of these people should be shot on sight the bastards!
