Again, the KDP has positioned itself at the crossroads between betrayal and inhumanity, doing more damage to the people of Kurdistan than it’s terrorizing Turkish counterpart.
In the pit of this humiliation lies the Barzani family and their caste system of a government, working directly with Turkish intelligence to prolong its limited time at the throne.
It is evident that the attacks launched by the invading Turkish state in the Zinê Wertê area of southern Kurdistan are KDP approved. Though neither is this the starting point of KDP’s betrayal, nor will this be the last occasion in which the KDP has fed innocent Kurds to the hungry jaws of the terrorist Turkish state.
But why would a Kurd do this to a Kurd as if the external enemies were few? Because the KDP is not Kurdish, it is a project just as it proved to be in 1975 when the Barzani’s liquidated their army of a hundred thousand as soon as it had become clear a war would break out against the Iraqi government.
The unofficial relations between the KDP and Israel would be revealed years later by a former senior Mossad official, who shared that from 1963–1975 Israel had military advisers at the headquarters of Mustafa Barzani, and trained and supplied the Kurdish units with firearms and field and anti-aircraft artillery. Israel played a determining role in the tactics and strategies laid out in the war, serving as more than just an ally for a crowd of scared nationalists hoping to construct a nation state.
Access to such technology and information does not come at a small price, and the KDP did not sell itself for too expensive to Turkey either.
When the PKK initiated the August 15 breakthrough, a historic turning point for the Kurdistan Workers Party, the KDP cut its ties with the PKK in fear that its relations with Turkey will deteriorate; it then initiated anti-propaganda against the PKK. In Wan and Colemerg, the KDP asked the tribes devoted to them to become collaborators against the PKK and to fight with the Turkish state against the guerrillas.
KDP’s Salman Sindi, on April 1985, informed on 8 guerrillas in the Şikefta Kera region, to the invading Turkish army. In this betrayal, a guerilla was martyred and 7 guerrillas were captured by the Turkish state.
On 12 July 1991, upwards of the 36th parallel in southern Kurdistan (Duhok, Hewler, and Sulaymaniyah) was taken up by the multinational ‘Hammer Force’ or ’Security Zone’ operation, which was protected by the Turkish state.
Hammer Force was a US-sponsored NATO project. Although it was dressed as a precaution against Saddam’s attacks, the practice of the project made clear that it was more worried about liquidating the PKK than protecting the hundreds of thousands of civilians who would later be killed by Saddam.
With KDP and Turkish state relations increasingly warming, the Turkish state increased air bombardment in southern Kurdistan in 1991, based on intelligence provided by the KDP. By 6 May 1992, the KDP and terrorist Turkish state heightened their relationship to another level by starting a large ground operation in the guerrilla-populated area of Behdinan.
The KDP launched a war against the PKK on October 2, 1992, under the name of ‘Operation Hatt,’ on the occupation border with the Turkish state. While the KDP would inch in on the PKK from the south, the Turkish army was to advance from northern Kurdistan. This war carried no real value other than legitimising treachery among the people who had been neighbours only years ago.
In many regions, a joint military and intelligence commission was established between MIT and the KDP following a treaty in 1997. Ever since, Turkish intelligence continues to plague major cities such as Duhok, Zaxo, and Hewler with its intelligence experts and officers.
This line of betrayal continued to manifest the KDP and resulted in a dark day for the Kurdish people on 15 February 1999. While the KDP has provided the Turkish state with any means possible in the abduction of the Peoples’ Leader Abdullah Ocalan, the KDP is in a position of full-surrender against the Turkish state for the continuation of the isolation being imposed in Imrali. Because the People’s Leader determines the future of the Kurds, a future in which exploitative palace clowns such as Erdogan and his puppet Barzani do not exist, a future in which the nation state and its patriarchial mindset does not pollute the minds of the Kurds who have lived communally for thousands of years.
This is the exact reason why the KDP approved and wholly supported the attack on Maxmur Camp yesterday, or the ISIS attacks on Şengal, or any other attack elsewhere in southern Kurdistan. Three women were killed under a Kurdish flag, with the approval of a Kurdish government. The injured died because the villagers had no medical supplies to save her.
While one movement is crying out against the thousands-of-years-old system of the world to save at least one woman from slavery, another movement is feeding goddesses to hungry dogs. While one movement has launched an ideological war against state-mentality that deflects society from its natural way of life, another movement has sworn to maintain an exploitative system to feed its own belly. While one movement shows remorse even to the enemy and waits for the dead to be removed before resuming war, another movement does not even have sympathy for its own.
The Maxmur camp has been in isolation for over nine months now, following an ambargo which was initiated after the killing of an MIT agent in Hewler. While elements of the enemy feed intelligence to their masters, the Kurds are exposed to bombardments every day under a supposedly Kurdish government.
In such a case, we understand how important it is that every organisation, especially the Kurdish one, is based on the foundations of a liberationist ideology. To see and understand the true face of the state and government, to understand that a government building does not save an oppressed, war-torn people from death, one can simply take a look at the Kurd killing their own as if they were cattle, for self-interests.
