CEASEFIRE AND MORAL IMPERATIVE

"In light of the fact that it appears we have yet another attempt at the creation of a peaceful solution to the situation of the Kurdish people under Turkish occupation, through KKK's ceasefire (due to go into effect 1 October), there were two articles of interest on the Kurdish Globe this week.

In the first, we read that US intentions toward the Kurdish people are moving in rhythm of the same song and dance that we all know so well. The "bad" Kurds remain "bad" Kurds, and the US has no interest in making a place at the table for those issues that "bad" Kurds face daily. Those issues include the recent increase in repression, especially as outlined in the new anti-terror law, the removal of America's allies, the Pashas, from the control of civil government, or an end to the Ankara regime's policy of equality through forced assimilation. Let's make it absolutely clear that this severe repression has been, and continues to be, actively assisted by the policies of the US government."

Lets hope not, lets hope that instead of repeating history which is replete with errors that "we". all of us, can learn from our past failures and move into a brighter future.
