The PKK seem to be operating just fine without him.

Chomskyfan now I have a long artivle for you to read

Formulated in these terms, the advocates of a qualified commitment to nonviolence have a pretty strong case. I think they can claim with very much justice that in almost all real circumstances there is a better way than resort to violence.

Ok, I'll tell you what Erolz, I'll go halfway with you, and I'll bring up another Chomsky quote:

"Those who justify [Terrorism against Innocents] don't have a leg to stand on, just as those who justify Turkish policy don't have a leg to stand on."

I have no idea what you mean about 'going halfway'?

Quoting something without a link and where the context of thge quote can not be known is to me pretty pointless.

It is imo easy to claim to be a 'fan' of Noam Chomsky and throw quotes around that support your pre concived notions without context and ignore those aspects of his work that do not. It is imo alot harder to understand what he says and live in a manner that is conssitency with these ideologies.

I think my post made it PERFECTLY clear, you justify Turkish policy with regards to the Kurds, ergo, you have no leg to stand on.

I presume you just skim over the parts of Chomsky that question Turkish policy (which he does quite often). As demonstrated:

"Aggression is fine if it's in U.S. interests. It's bad only if it's opposed to U.S. interests. Turkey invaded northern Cyprus, broke it up, killed two thousand people, tried to destroy relics of Greek civilization, drove out 200,000 people. That was fine. Turkey is our ally."
