I am proud Kurd but I never would consider myself a Muslim. After what we went through and still do under those Muslims, I will never except being a Muslim.

I consider myself as a Nationalistic Kurd.Religion is just keeping us back in the past. We want to continue into the future. Praying wont help, you got to take things into your own hand.

I really enjoyed it and as a kurd in India I really hope that every kurd is safe and continues his culture and lives with integrity.

In this video, you can only see Muslims Kurds! There are Kurds who (Yazidis, Christian, Communism, Zardoshtian .....)

Original Kurds are not Muslims, but the Muslims have the Kurdish people ideology with the power changes!!

@Gine012 thats actually very ignorant, religion has nothing to do with anything!!! there is good and bad in everybody, and everything well and always will be in gods hand!!!!! you or I or any form of humans have not made this earth, heaven, or hell but GOD and for you to say praying won't help is just a bad call on your part, and it's truly sad to know you are a Kurd!!! i am ashamed to call myself a Kurd after what you wrote!!!

@1995kurdishgirl

it very much is islam. mohammad killed christians and jews of the bani qurazi tribe. islam is nothing but oppression and using violence to get ur own way. come to the light, the reason these ppl got another chance in life is because of the judeo/christian values of americans and america

[1995kurdishgirl]

that is a really good documentry, good job. i hope all kurdish have a good life.

The Kurds in Nashville still havent changed at all.If you go to LA Virginia or other places.Its diffident they have gotten Modern.But the ones here cause of Religion havent.The new generation people cant be who they really want to be,act like they want to be but you cant,when we are what we want to be we hide it.Its because the old generation still havent hit reality.so I see what Gine means we have to take things in your own hand cause praying isnt going t work.
