The PKK in Iraq - Turkey

October 2006
As the possibility of a Turkish invasion of Northern Iraq increases, we offer you an exclusive report filmed inside an Iraqi-based PKK base. Includes footage of PKK fighters training.

There are believed to be thousands of PKK fighters living in these remote mountains on the Iraqi side of the Turkish border. "I left my gun and went to Europe, to lobby for a peaceful solution. But our voices are ignored", complains one member. Many of the fighters here lived in Europe as refugees, before returning to join the PKK.

Who comes back from Australia? Roj is a good British spay, I think.. Stupid terrorists! They even cant say why they are on the mountains. They say they do not have political right in Turkey. Yes my party was not selected. Do I need to get gun kill people. What a fucking excuse. I think they like living like that, money comes outside, fuck girls, thinking they are important and killing innocents who never defend themselves. The only problems are danger of being pregnant and Turkish warplanes...

@MrAlan12444 ECONOMICAL, RELIGION, CULTURAL FACTORS PREVENT SEPERATION...

PKK HAS NO CHANCE TO BE SUCCESFUL...

ANATOLAIN KURDS HAVE COMMON HISTORY WITH TURKS AND BOTH OF THEM ARE MUSLIM NOT LIKE GREEKS AND ARMENIANS...

ANATOLAIN KURDS HAVE NO COMMON POINT WITH IRAQI KURDS...

THEY ARE DIFFERENT THAN US, WE CAN SPEAK TURKISH BUT THEY SPEAK ARABIC INSTEAD OF TURKISH...

THEY HAVE DIFFERENT LIFE STYLE THAN ANATOLIAN KURDS.. WE LOVE OUR LANDS.. FROM EAST TO WEST, ANATOLIA IS OUR HOME

@MrAlan12444 NO, ARABS TRIED TO KILL KURDS AND KURDS HAVE PETROL RESOURCES IN NORTH IRAQ...

WHAT ABOUT ANATOLIAN KURDS???

BAGHDAD IS DESTROYED BY US.S ARMY BUT ISTANBUL, IZMIR, ANTALYA, ANKARA ARE MODERN CITIES...

WE NEED ALLA ANATOLIA AND WE HAVE FAMILIES AND STRONG RELATIONS...

WE LOVE TÜRKİYE..

WE ARE NOT SAME AS IRAQ...

SEPERATION IS POSSIBLE IF TURKISH CITIES DESTROYED, ECONOMY FINISHED, TURKS WANT TO CUT KURDS LIKE SADDAM WITH CHEMICAL WEAPONS, ETC...

BUT NOT POSSIBLE.

@MrAlan12444 NO IA M KURDISH FROM EAST ANATOLIA, AND WE HAVE FAMILIES AND COMMON JOBS WITH TURKS..

SEPERATION WILL MAKE PKK AND BDP MORE POWERFUL BUT KURDISH PUBLIC OF ANATOLIA WILL BE ISOLATED AFTER SEPERATION LIKE ARMENIANS AND GREEKS...

THIS MAKE TURKS POWERFUL BECAUSE THEY HAVE INDUSTRY AND SEA SIDES..

KURDISH CITIES ARE ON MOUNTAINS AND WE HAVE NO JOB IN EAST ANATOLIA, WHY WE NEED SEPERATION???

BULLSHIT!

[MrAlan12444]

u know a lot of kurds in iraqi kurdistan have families in baghdad and in arabic cities why was is a success for them?

[00thelastottoman00]

@MrAlan12444 SORRY I AM KURDISH AND I LOVE MY COUNNTRY...

IN ISTANBUL KURDISH POPULATION IS TOO HIGH, NOT 5-10%...

YOU HAVE NO PROOF AND NO KNOWLEDGE ABOUT POPULATION AND JOB OPPORTUNITIES OF TÜRKİYE...

SO, I THINK YOU JUST SUPPORT PKK TERRORISM WITHOUT ANY IDEA...

SEPERATION IS NOT POSSIBLE, WE HAVE BEEN MARRIED, WE CAN'T SEPERATE OUR FAMILIES...
