Terror or Traitor?

Many groups in the world is desperate of being heard, respected and recognized, and they are
under a lot of pressure. What we in the Kurdish and Armenian diaspora must do is to condemn this groups and composure our feelings, we must act professional and not radical.

Education is the keyword for today's post, educate instead of adopting inhuman methods..
Even if your present situation is in a inhuman society.
Making our voices heard and taking advantage with idealistic and non-profit methods, that is what the Kurdish struggle against their superior enemies and what the Armenian persons in the genocide movements need to do, to follow and aim at a specific track..
And that path demands both patience and time.

But as much as the activists needs to remain cautios diplomatics, they need to remember
that there is unfortunately worse things than violents acts.. traiting, betrayal and traitor to one´s country.

Artin Penik´s treacherous death speech

Armenia, Decrease corruption! Said OECD.

The OECD Anti-corruption network raised their voice and stated that Armenia immediately should take care of their issue with corruption and that the faults must be attended to in a nearby future.

The number of convictions for corruption is low, especially for high-ranking officials, and more efforts must be made to investigate allegations and bring cases to court;

Cooperation between law enforcement and financial control institutions needs to be improved;

Greater transparency and a more effective monitoring mechanism is needed to cut abuse of the system for declaring gifts and assets by public officials;

Information requested by ordinary citizens and non-governmental organisations, and access to information at the local level, needs to be provided more quickly and fully;

To tackle the pervasive tradition of bribe-giving in Armenia, the leadership of the country needs to lead and support anti-corruption efforts, through a combination of law-enforcement, further legal reform and public education campaigns.

Armenia as a independent country since 16 years have suffered and been affected by corruption since the fall of Soviet Union. The former corrupt Soviet government have discoloured the Armenian flag and the various kinds of problems remains.

A theatrical documentary regarding the Armenian Genocide

Screamers..
Documentary feature examining why genocides keep occurring -- from the Armenian genocide in 1915, to the Holocaust, Bosnia, Rwanda and now Darfur -- through the eyes and music of the Grammy award-winning rock band “System of a Down,” based in Los Angeles, whose members are all grandchildren of genocide survivors.

Ataturk completed the Armenian Genocide. He fulfilled what Talaat Pasha and Enver Pasha had started in 1915, the eradication of the Armenian population of Anatolia and the termination of Armenian political aspirations in the Caucas, he ordered his army to kill thousands of Greeks as well

Central Iraqi academics is fleeing to Kurdistan

Imagine yourself trying to study in the Baghdad National Library or tending on a lecture at the Baghdad University, from time to time being interrupted by the rumble sound from of a mortar, echo of a machine gun or just a Apache helicopter passing by.

To concentrate in the middle of a battle ground must be unpleasant and because of the insecurity as a academic in the hazardous and risky central Iraq, they flee to northern Iraq...
To Kurdistan.


From January to November in 2006, the total combined annual students from Iraq was totally 1200 students, many to them to Hawler Medical University. The number of students from Iraq is rapidly growing and increasing to the five university's of south Kurdistan (Listed in the end of this post).

Question at Issue
It is morally right to receive the refugee academics to Kurdistan but if they choose to stay and settle and take up residence in Kurdistan, could it in further future cause and give rise to a similar conflict as the deal with the Turkmen minority in Kirkuk?
If they settle up in Kurdistan, how would it influence their nationality? Would they assimilate or will they create their own society?
One cannot ignore the fact that the Kurds could get into a conflict with other nationalities and this is something that the Kurdish Regional Government should concentrate on investigating.

"We have been forced to receive more students then we expected" says the
Mohamed Sabir from the Kurdish Regional Government in Kurdistan.

Hrant Dink

Ogün Samast, murderer

Nearly two weeks after the Armenian-Orthodox Christmas, this 17-year old youth took the bus from Trabzon to Istanbul with a gun in purpose to kill the Armenian journalist Hrant Dink.

This youth could not possible be clever enough to do this by hes own, so who hired Ogün?
We all now know that is was the 26 year old Yasin Hayal, the same Yasin who tried to blow
up a McDonalds building. But who hired Yasin Hayal?

Yasin Hayal, Terrorist and Murderer

Hrant was a Kurdish friend and spoke several times about the Armenian genocide wich ended in 1915. Our friend Hrant died for this.

Hrant Dink 1954-2007

The Turkish Articles 159 and Article 301 is now in focus and doubted for its competence, these articles was used against Hrant Dink for "Insulting the Turkishness" wich can not fit in a democratic society.. but how democratic is Turkey?

Other inhuman Articles in the Turkish law system is Article 8 in the anti-terrorist law wich do not allow uncomfortable propaganda, meetings and demostrations with opinions that do not subject oneself under the goverment. Then whe have Article 312 against "hate-propaganda" wich is
used against the same things as the other disgusting articles.
These articles is used as excuses to arrest people the regime consider as a enemy of the state.

In a interview with the Swedish newspaper Svenska Dagbladet (SVD) Hrant said that "2007 will be a dark year for me and I do not know if I will live trough the year"
Hrant Dink survived 19 days of 2007, he know what was comming.

We saw this barbaric youth Ogün showing no regret and telling the press that he was proud and that he would do it again.. what whe learn out of this is that our tears feed them!

"Our dearest friend , our brother .
the editor in chief of AGOS newspaper Hrant Dink has been assasinated ruthlessly.

There are no words to explain our pain.
Our deepest condolences for those who can still feel themselves as human beings."

Saddam Executed

From this lonely villager who whas beaten by he´s father and picked on by the other kids to this insane president of Iraq. He will now be remembered as a cold blooded animal for the rest of eternity.
The execution took place 06.00 30/12-06 and this is a sad day for the Kurds, they did not
judge him for what he did against the Kurds.
The victims in Halabja will be remembered by only us.. the Kurds.


Bush said that a important milestone has been reached, it is the opposite when it comes to the Kurdish people.


The execution took place 06.00 30/12-06 and this is a sad day for the forgotten Kurds.


The apostate Saddam al-Tikriti meeting Donald Rumsfeld. US Regime giving green light to their stooge the apostate Saddam to use chemical weapons against innocent civilian Kurds

Self independence for Armenia and other is waiting..

I have a dream.. that one day this nation will rise up, that the Kurdish people in near time will live long enough to that day when Kurdistan with a beautiful speech will have their own boarders.

Someday the Kurds will taste the sweet taste of freedom like the Armenians did in -91.

The Kurds may be oppressed, pursued, and imprisoned for expressing their opinions but their inheritance, death duty and heredity is the same.. continue the struggle.
Even if many Kurds are uneducated and opposed to educate, the one and first thing they learn is about the Kurdish struggle, this is a cultural heritage!

A Christmas comment to our Peshmerge´s.. Stay put!

10 days has gone by since the goverment of Iraq stated that they wanted to exchange the American troops and forces in Baghdad with the kurdish Peshmerge force from north of Iraq, Kurdistan so that the US troops can leave Iraq.

Why should the Kurds be responsible over Baghdad?
It is a twisted statement that the Kurds should take care of Baghdads bussines and misary, i say let the problem stay in Baghdad and let the Iraqi handle it themself!

The Iraqi goverment might aswell suggest to send the Kurdish troops to figth with GAM in Indonesia.

4 days ago, The 20th December.
Until now, The Kurdish leaders opposed the Iraqi goverments will but agreed on sending some Peshmerga soldiers for special operations.

Kurds should not defend Iraqi territory and it is impossible for Iraq to turn to example Turkey in need of military resources.
The Iraqi goverment knows that the Turks have interest in Iraq and to let the Turkish military or Gendarma is to commit politcal suicide because.
Turkey, Iran and Syria wants to decrease the Kurdish influence in northern Iraq because if not, the "kurdish disease" will reach their boarders and spread among their country.
This is very important to remember during this situation that the coin has two sides.
We can establish that Iraq wants peace but are not willing to risk any ethnic civil war in Iraq, the Sunni - Shia problem is enough!

To sum up a conclusion.. Kurdistanians, stay in your motherland!

Happy birthday Jesus - Because Kurdistan is with you

The Bible, religion for some of us and fairy tales for rest of us.
Anyway, christian or atheist... we can find some kurdish caracthers and regions in this great book. I dont want to post this like if the Bible was true but lets do it for fun.. anyway.
So lets find some Kurdish characters and biblical events and history in the great country of Kurdistan.

*1

For insteance, the legend says that the three wise men who followed the shining star to mother Marys home was Zoroastrian judical astrologers from Persia:
Kaspar, Balthasar and Melchior.


This last guy, Melchior was a Zoroastrian priest from Urmia. Urmia is a city East of Kurdistan and this city has a majority of a Kurdish population.
What we know is that the religion Zoroastrism did not have any exact geographic point because this religion hade beliefers all the way down to India but this location is the one with Kurds in it.

*2

Another famous legend is the Arch, the Arch of Noah when Noah was commanded by God to save his family and a core stock of the worlds animals... so he builded his Arch!
Later on the fatal flood came.. to whipe out mankind and everything in its way!
This was why he needed the Arch.

The Arch landed on the Mount Ararat (North of Kurdistan) on the boarder to Armenia and East Kurdistan (Iran).
Shairnakh - "city of Noah" in Kurdish.
Noahs was lucky and lived 950 years.


*3

Abraham oooh Abraham..
Some clame him to be Kurdish, possible even if it sounds funny.
Abrahams wife and other of his relatives came from Eddessa (Urfa, North of Kurdistan) and
they lived in the Kurdish city Urfa and around the biblical region Harran.

Abraham (or Ibrahim in Kurdish) left his relatives in Urfa and traveled to the country of the Kaneér. According to the myth, Abrahams relatives stayed in Urfa.

The mosque built on the site where, according to Muslim tradition, the Prophet Abraham was born

Abraham´s Pool is a Lake in Urfa, there is plenty of fish in this little lake and it is forbidden to catch any fish or polute this water.


*4

Adam left the first Paradise and left it to the Nodits, Kain and Sansa (Sansa was Laottas child
that Eve breastfeeded together with her son Kain) was born in Kurdish regions on their way
to their second Paradise.


This second Paradise was somewhere between Tigris and Eufrat, in the Bibel this place is called:
Hiddekel


In the second Paradise in Kurdistan Eve gave birth to Abel in this area Hiddekel.
