I am an American, what do you want Americans who have long been an ally to know about Turkish interests in the Middle East? How do you feel about an independent Kurdistan in former Iraq and Syria?

You will encounter lots of lies here which has been taught in Turkish educational system for more than a century and constantly being repeated in every walk of daily life in order to protect its followers from outer influence.

But truth is here.even me being in a foreign country, hesitate to send this comment because of some family members of me living in turkey. They can face oppression, interrogation, even maybe jail if a lunatic fanatic obsessed to trace my background sneak to prejudiced authorities.nowadays, this institutional mechanism, Turkish state, reached another dimension of insanity with the help Islamic justification principle. In deep, personally I believe every individual is wise and honest but ideologies blind us to forget general moral codes.

They will try conceal the biggest reality which is Turkish authority based, sharp, definite and unchangeable root.turkey is a country for ethnic Turks and muslims.if you borned without one of this components, you rather to blur that side of your identity shouldn't manifest in public too much.if you are permitted to raise assimilated children and opposite alternative is not allowed.According to their telling, this would hurt our ancestors who sacrificed their life for future generations by warring against this immoral, infidel, filthy, disgusting imperialist powers whereas, so called, this imperialistic power made biggest contribution to turkey's foundation by ignoring massive massacre of non-muslim population of turkey, Armenians, Greeks, Syriacs, in order to bolster this significant piece of land against Russian expansionism.

For Kurdish issue, for the first years of foundation of the state, Turkish side promised for introducing the Kurdish identity in constitution if they assist Turkish fellows for removal of non-muslim elements.kurds in the beginning of century were mostly living in rural areas depending on farming non-literal and under the efficacy of clerics. they attempted a few insurgencies which were futile when compared with Turkish authority's organizational abilities and this actions gave lots of opportunities to eliminate potential leadership for Kurdish identity and horror to not dare anything against Turkish oppression.

For PKK, their cult-based Soviet fashion old ideology is not too much intriguing, but it deserves to be taken consideration for its capability and enthusiasm for transformation about actual facts and sudden developments.it is also should not be undermined it is one of the unique ideologies locates itself distant from islamism in middle East.

They thrived and outshined after the brutal attitudes in Diyarbakır prison, which would be a topic for another article, after the coup of 1980.in the beginning, their aspirations was united, independent Kurdistan that has been divided among 4 middle eastern countries deprivated it's right for self-determination.around e ten-year-struggle they altered their decision to focus on Turkish part of the Kurdistan and not an independent country but some kind authonmy. Maybe they realized the risk of persecation that non-muslim minorities faced.because, increasing number of kurds were migrating to metropolitan areas in the west of country and the memories about Armenians, Greeks and Alevites( another religious minority can be defined as semi- Muslim) was alive.turkish authorities prefer to forget about their obligatory to implement laws in extra ordinary situations like Istanbul pogrom, Maraş massacre, 1934 Thrace pogroms.

During the war between Turkish authority and PKK extreme atroticites occured mostly by Turkish side which is confirmed by ECHR and UN and one of the biggest was depopulation of Kurdish villages without any warranty for the future of villagers.also, homicide, toture, arbitrary imprisonment are still usual.the biggest Kurdish opposition leader Selahattin Demirtaş is still behind bars for ridiculous accusations like thousands of his fellows faced though he condemned vilonce several times.education in Kurdish language is still prohibited, Kurdish publications in TV, internet radio are usual suspects and being investigated and closed down for absurd pretexts and if they want to continue to publications they have to prove their loyalty to Turkish authorities so it is impossible to mention free Kurdish language instruments.

Nowadays, Turkish state focuses on to islamization of Kurdish population more than Western part of turkey for gaining allegiance of future generations and their main propaganda element is pkk's being infidel, secular traits.the afrin, small enclave of Syrian Kurdish population, invaded last year, Sharia laws started to be validate, Kurdish language prohibited, alcohol prohibited, women forced to move away from social life and around 150.000 of the kurd emigrated from their Homeland. Most of them replaced by radical islamist which came from idlib and other strongholds of radicals.

And, those are trailer for the Eastern Syria which is being targeted by Turkish authorities recently.
