In every country there are people who have sacrificed their lives in the fight for freedom, equality, against oppression and exploitation. People who were killed because of their resistance by the ruling governments and the gangs they supported. The legacy of these fallen should be protected, their memory kept alive, because they made the country their homeland. They paid for it with their blood because they resisted oppression and exploitation.
All over the world in the history of societies there are these people who sacrificed themselves for the freedom of their society. Who stood up for the rights of mankind with everything they had. They should be protected and their memories should be kept alive.
But in Kurdistan, in Kurdistan’s struggle for freedom, it’s even more special. Kurdistan is a country in which a cruel enemy is up to mischief, who, supported by imperial powers such as NATO, knows neither conscience, law nor borders in order to achieve his goals. Those who stand in the way of this goal are the Kurdish society, who hold their heads high to protect their language, culture, history, homeland and their fallen.
In a country where such an enemy was about to destroy Kurdish society at its roots, Rêber APO set out. Although he had nothing but his convictions and deep belief in freedom and justice, he and his comrades opposed this enemy to save the Kurdish society, its culture, language and country from genocide.
To date, thousands of their daughters and sons have fallen. They all sacrificed themselves in the fight for freedom and did their society a great service. In the PKK, everything was created with the legacy of the fallen, so in the PKK the fallen are sacred. Since the PKK’s struggle on the basis of the Şehîds continues to this day with determination and spreads across the world, the Şehîds are immortal because their struggle continues, their heritage is protected and spread, their memory is alive.
“The memory of the fallen is the memory of victory!”
