To understand contemporary Kurdish history and existence, one can be enlightened by understanding the disintegration on the Iraqi and Syrian borders. This is such a division that all the options of extermination, including genocide, seem to be potential tools. Multi-faceted calculations are made.
First, the Iraq Kurds were supported to control the Iraq Arabs. The character of the Iraqi Kurdish Movement has proved this fact sufficiently. The latest Saddam Hussein regime was destroyed, mainly relying on the Iraq Kurds. Second, the Iraq Kurds are the most used tool in the Iran-Iraq conflict: history substantially proves this. Third, Iraq Kurds have been supported to keep the Republic of Turkey in control.
Since 1925, and even since the 1806 Soran Rebellion led by Babanzade Abdurrahman Pasha, the first contemporary Kurdish rebellion, all the important historical developments in Kurdistan have been the most important means of distracting and controlling the Ottoman and Republican administrations.
Fourth, Britain, the hegemonic powers of the Middle East (Britain is the hegemonic power from the 1800s to the 1945s, the United States from the 1950s to the present day) has been one of the most convenient means of keeping the Middle East under US control.
Fifth, and most importantly, the control and diversion of the entire Kurdistan itself and the revolutionary potential of the Kurdish people -the Kurdish Administration in Iraq has been trying to achieve the so-called status quo since 1920. In addition, Southern Kurdistan has been made the center of primitive tribal, religious, modernist dependent ideologies. By connecting to this tiny piece and its administration, all Kurdistan and Kurdish people are connected to a strategic control tool.
Sixth, not to be underestimated, the richness of beneath its soil, water and beautiful geography are easily exploited.
When these realities that we put forward under six main headings are analyzed more closely, it will be seen that a Kurdish nation-state is always kept in potential reserve. It has always been delayed to be established another time; this way the Kurdish people are made to be controlled and nurtured by the nation-states of the region, instead of relying on their own powers. Kurds locked up in the hope of a possible formation ofa country from external hegemonic forces, by this, their ability to self-defence or promote their freedom becomes paralyzed. On this basis, it is deprived of self-esteem, always forced to be bound to external forces, thus being condemned to a status that can be subjected to massacres at any time, becoming loyal servants and subordinates of their masters.
A deep crisis of the Kurds living within the borders of Iraq is an established belief that the only way to solve the Kurdish problem is through capitalist modernity. In the long-term planning of hegemonic relations, Iraqi Kurds have always been used as a laboratory material.
The incarnation of Kurdish national reality was projected as a fact and construction that could only be possible through capitalist relations. The perception of a revolutionary, democratic and socialist national reality is on the agenda as if it is not possible. The most important tool in the hands of hegemonic forces in this regard is Baghdad-based Arab-Sunni or Shiite nationalism. They keep the Arab nationalist threat alive to keep the Kurds close to the threat of refuge. They keep the same threat of the Kurds against the Arabs.
Likewise the notion that the Kurdish state will be established in Turkey, Syria and Iran too soon is used to threaten state regimes. On the other hand, these triple or quadruple elements are also kept as a source of threat, thus ensuring full loyalty of the Kurds.
It seems that the laboratory is very productive in the staging of political games. Systems are established and destroyed, but the Iraqi Kurdish laboratory cannot be created or kept vita as a kind of permanent material (policy). The Kurds continue to be kept alive and productive under the command of the masters. Although it is the oldest problem in the Middle East, this logic plays a fundamental role in the unresolved Kurdish question. It has become clear that the Middle Eastern nation-states built by capitalist modernity cannot live together in peace and make their communities happy.
On the other hand, the democratic modernity system, which targets the freedom, autonomy and equality of thousands of years of cultural heritage, is the more correct, better way of social peace and happy life.
