There is a law of nature and neither the power of Gilgamesh nor Sultans nor Prophets can change it. Everything, everyone is ‘born, grows up, lives and dies.’ No matter how much some people tried to dream of false miracles, this thing has not changed.
I will now tell the story of those who were born and loved life and went on to die. The one’s that had put something worse than death against us. At that time, the birth of their sons had come to life. If we say life from here… People who are surrounded by gold palaces are not accepted to be soytari and insisted on life. I’m talking about living, living as a human being, living freely…
Freedom did not come without a price. They put the biggest price in front of their eyes for freedom and went down in history. We don’t need to go that far, we have to look closer to ourselves, very close to ourselves.
Yes, I am talking about them, those Martyrs who bring holiness to our memory. Those are our souls who are searching for freedom in the narrow streets of the city. In Sur, Cizre, Sirnak and Gever…
They put everything aside and wanted to show us freedom, even though we stuck our heads in the land of our ignorance, they stubbornly resisted. Against the enemy and our ignorance. Their story didn’t end, they were endless traces, voices…
Life, they want to live with dignity and freedom. Their goal was not to become a warrior, they entered this path to become free fighters. Some were still 18 years old, some had dreams that they could not fulfill, some were waiting, some had hopes. They left everything behind and entered this path to give us the key that opens the way to freedom. From this path, some of our people were afraid of thorns and did not fall, but they did not give up.
From the first day to the last day, they fought to cleanse the sins of humanity. They called all over the world for a month. Tanks, bloodthirsty cannons could not stop them. With their lives devoted to the love of freedom, they did not give a single second to lies, oppression, slavery and marches.
If this is a law of nature that we are born, grow up, live and die, then it is true. We should not wear clothes of slavery in the name of living. If the children died before they were grown up, then it must not be so easy to breathe. If we don’t have a life for which we have to die, then there is no point in living. With this awareness, they entered into an unparalleled resistance. They did not believe the enemy’s lies even for a minute. Our enemy was the enemy of mankind who drank blood. Don’t say that they didn’t have a life to live, the best life was waiting for them, they were the people who knew that life has no meaning until there is freedom.
Even if we die in the end, let’s take what they have opened and what they steal from us and die on the way to freedom. This is the story of a people who wants to be destroyed. It was completely taken from a real people. If this people is still standing, it is thanks to these people who paid the price for freedom.
And, ‘If a life is lived it will either be free or it will not be free’
