SUPPORT INDEPENDENT KURDISTAN 
AND YEZIDI AUTONOMY



Gaza bombings / killings caused you pain.. Because they are Muslim? Yet the killing of Christians, Alevites, Ezidis, Kurds in Iraq in Syria is okay because its Muslims killing / murdering /beheading / raping? ISIS does not represent Islam (I agree!) yet your silence / turning a blind eye, cherry picking which barbaric acts to raise awareness in respect of - is rather telling and extremely worrying!
UK: you were instrumental in the division of Kurdistan, the statelessness, thereafter the oppression & genocide of the Kurds- the largest ethnic minority. You came to our rescue a decade after Sadam chemically bombed us for our oil- if we find vast oil resources in Syria: would you help Kurds fight against ISIS?
TURKEY: for centuries you tried to assimilate us into Turkishness, you said Kurds never existed; that we were all one and same; brothers & sisters? You imprisoned tortured killed us for speaking our own language.. You facilitated arming ISIS, terrorist recruits entered freely into Syria via your borders.. Your hospitals treat the wounded ISIS thugs.. Now you have tanks 'watching' to ensure the safety of your country.. You ask for UN support if ISIS becomes a problem for YOU.. Because if Kurds are killed off; its one less problem?
TURKISH CITIZENS: a park in Taksim / Istanbul caused countrywide outrage last year.. A tree is worth protesting? But not a kurd.. A human?? S/he is not even worth a mention?

The hypocrisy is chilling.. KOBANE IS NOT ALONE!! Unite against ISIS! 'Where there is no reaction 
FOR ANARCHISTS KURDISTAN IS THE NEW SPANISH CIVIL WAR

Why is the world ignoring the revolutionary Kurds in Syria?

Amid the Syrian warzone a democratic experiment is being stamped into the ground by Isis. That the wider world is unaware is a scandal
  •                                                                                                                                                                   In 1937, my father volunteered to fight in the International Brigades in defence of the Spanish Republic. A would-be fascist coup had been temporarily halted by a worker’s uprising, spearheaded by anarchists and socialists, and in much of Spain a genuine social revolution ensued, leading to whole cities under directly democratic management, industries under worker control, and the radical empowerment of women.
    Spanish revolutionaries hoped to create a vision of a free society that the entire world might follow. Instead, world powers declared a policy of “non-intervention” and maintained a rigorous blockade on the republic, even after Hitler and Mussolini, ostensible signatories, began pouring in troops and weapons to reinforce the fascist side. The result was years of civil war that ended with the suppression of the revolution and some of a bloody century’s bloodiest massacres.
    I never thought I would, in my own lifetime, see the same thing happen again. Obviously, no historical event ever really happens twice. There are a thousand differences between what happened in Spain in 1936 and what is happening in Rojava, the three largely Kurdish provinces of northern Syria, today. But some of the similarities are so striking, and so distressing, that I feel it’s incumbent on me, as someone who grew up in a family whose politics were in many ways defined by the Spanish revolution, to say: we cannot let it end the same way again.
