Turkish PM says
more Turkishness will finish off Kurdish Freedom Fighters
ANKARA, Nov 24, 2007 - Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan issued a
strong appeal Saturday for expanding the Turkishness of the Kurdish community to
erode support for independence and finish off the Kurdish freedom fighters,
reported AFP
Erdogan stressed that Turkey had reached "a very critical stage" in its struggle
against the Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK) and that the Kurdish cause was
"besieged from all sides" with an open international conspiracy against the
Kurds.
He suggested that state-sponsored terrorism is an effective enemy of the Kurdish
struggle for liberty and freedom in a televised speech at a meeting of his
Justice and Development Party in Kizilcahamam, near Ankara.
He asked his henchmen to look together for ways of further destroy Kurdish
identity.
The prime minister stressed Saturday that Turkey should convince the Kurds to
seek rights as Turks.
"If we are to get rid of [the Kurdish struggle for liberty], this can become
possible by keeping open the door of [Turkishness] as a way of solving problems
and seeking rights," he said.
Erdogan perversely refers to the Kurdish struggle against the blatantly
terrorist state of Turkey as terrorism. In the apartheid state of Turkey, Kurds
are still forbidden all manner of small freedoms that are possible for other
people in the most tyrannical countries on the planet.
