He said we are kurds, i didnt really know what he meant its so sad. At 14 years of age and not knowing who you really are.

This rape and torture in prison holds a lot of resemblance to Saddams Baath partys treatment of Kurdish women and women in general in their prisons

BTW PKK in not an "illegal" group!! idiot presenter. They're our honourable Peshmerga.

Biji Kurd u Kurdistan. Biji Eren and all our kurdish women. to hell with Turks

Why shall we got to northpole ? We were in Kurdistan long before you and your ancestors...so you should fuck off.....

Go back to mongolia where you are from!

Leave "Turkey" to their real owners!

Kurds & Greeks you stupid cunt....... !!

Turks are animals like the russians !

@StolzerKurde92 i'd rather say armenians & kurds!!!

@StolzerKurde92 And please stop being the used by other bigger forces. they want you there so they can take the gasoline out of the place.Then they'll let you starve and you'll eat your own shit and if you oppose to their will you'll die in pain caus you're worth shit by yourself get that straight, same goes for turkey actually! So in stead of fighting against turkey you should try to get a sort of economic union in order to counter weight the political influences in the region.

@StolzerKurde92 Haha what? and you go back to south africa where the humans originate ! One thing is sure, no one can have any claims on a territory. If you wanna take a territory you fight for it and if you don't win you either shut up or leave; this is how it a has always worked in history and thats what makes sense. Anyway If i follow your logic, we should send americans back to europe and leave the continent to amer-indian? You have a short end reasoning man.

@AnaMurida

Who said Kurdish men actively support the circumcision of Kurdish women? Circumcision isn't even something that occurs in the Kurdish culture where did you get that fact from? Lies as always!

And what has your education have to do with this? I'm also well educated but I don't feel the need to tell it, because I know it doesn't take much to understand what the Turkish government is doing to Kurds. Try speaking Kurdish in a court house in Turkey, and you'll see what I'm talking about!

@zundann

not only kurds are being opressed and tortured. Turks which may have leftist sympaties are being brought to jail and the jailhouses aswell with the same reasons. its so harsh to see things like this occur in my country. no muslim man should do this to women and children. Not over such reasons.
