A hundred years ago, the Kurdish land was divided between four countries with the help of France, Britain and Turkey!! This despicable agreement must end!! The Kurds must take their rights and reclaim their land.
The Kurds need a proper homeland - this SHOULD have happened 100 years ago, but even now it could be done. A small amounts of land for Turkey, Syria, Iraq, and even Iran could be devoted to it. And once complete, it would be better for ALL these nations.
Why does that matter? They work for Turkey against Kurdish rights, Turkey to this day doesn’t recognise the Kurdish language officially, Turkey’s only interest is to oppress Kurdish identity. Most turks are fascists from the ataturk “turk-only” mentality and won’t ever accept Kurdish identity recognition
@@leehyunsong7001 we do know that they also speak kurdish and that's all. they serve to our nation, this is what we care about. the list goes on... also the ex-health minister koca is kurdish. SO WHAT?! ex-prime minister Ozal was kurdish...
Turky's despicable unfair actions must stop on these victimized poor people every ethnicity have their own land in middle east why Kurds can't have their own country back
Stop believe the Western Media my friend. Turkey won all the Operations, Even forget the Turkey, Türkmens or Arabs also won the Battles. Only 1 Reason they still in there, cause of America. But with new Syria, Even America cant help anymore. So winner its clear
Arabs should learn to look beyond their own culture for solutions, as other countries have had these issues without the violence. The violence seems to be an Arab ego problem, not a human problem.
You do all realise the divide and rule policy was applied by Colonists powers everywhere. Nigerian Igbo number 40 million plus, fought the Biafra war and lost. I'm a Igbo but Welsh/British. What's done is done, can't redraw Nations borders for tribal/ethnic groups, we'll have another 100+ Countries and all arguing about village's, and resources.
@@planetguam8475 Exactly, they are of Persian origin. Have nothing to do with the land. Even today in Syria they are minority compared to Turkmens. They were never native to Anatolia.
I think Germany and France needs to give all the Kurds citizenship and social welfare benefits, thus Turkey will not dare to invade and kill European citizens, and they can peacefully settle in Greek islands for their summer vacations. And meanwhile France and Germany can protect their borders with French and Gernan soldiers. All the problems solved. Almost fprgot, you should also create a European Kurdistan that can be easily created by giving small amounts of land from Germany, France, Sweden and Denmark
@SchnellerSchmetterling Well, so far they have no luck, I guess they will try their luck in Europe now. Half of tge Kurds seem to be living in Europe, at this rate Europe might as well become Kurdistan, and as far as I can see there is real sympathy for a Kurdistan in Europe, so why not create one within EU? And a referandum could easily show us how they feel, do they want to live in West Asia or in Europe. This can also solve the demographic crisis in Europe. The population is getting old in Germany, and Kurds really like huge families, so it would benefit all.
@ they’re living in europe coz they dont have a land of their own in ME unless they have one for themselves they’ll be all over the world.. mind you lots n lots of turks are also in Germany and other EU countries
@@SchnellerSchmetterling yep, like you said, millions of Turks are in Europe, which puts your point in doubt that Kırds are in Europe because they have no land of their own. And the all the Kurds I know want to move over to Europe not to establish a state in West Asia where they already live as equal citizens (many Kurds were/are ministers or even presidents in Turkey, Iraq and Iran. Syria was a different bird though it willl also change. I mean Corsicans dont move to Germany because they don't have a land of their own (I guess you meant independence by that).
Hope Trump doesn't betray Rojava a second time. Even if they do the free peoples of North and East Syria will rather die with honor then live under oppression.
It's France 🇫🇷 and British responsible for Kurdish people. Because. The French, the British and their Middle Eastern Mandates (1918-1939): Two Political Strategies And dividing kurdish land.
kjurds makes up 10 percent of syria population and controls 90 person richnesss including arab majority population cities with the help of america . and most of these fighters related to pkk ter**r fighter that fight against turks for 40 years with the help and fund of so called western allies . this isnt about etnicity . this is about using these puppet sagainst turkiye . typical westerners
don't mind this one. Turks are known to claim to be Kurdish on the Internet. they claim they are Kurds that loves turkey, a country that have killed their fathers, imprisoned thier elites and treated them like 12th class citizens.
Turkey needs to have a reckoning with its past - it doesn’t need to happen quickly, but it still does need to happen. The current leader is very much wishing to go the other way.
kurds are not native in syria. they just forced to settle in there. they were just nomads. they populated quickly declare kurdistan. if they want country , they can go iraq kurdistan.
They do the same in Türkiye. We'd see on the news Kurds who have 40 kids in the 90s. Now they claim they're the majority of the population in the east of Turkey, therefore it's their land.
Syrian Kurds are organized behind Democratic Confederalism, a fascinating governing structure way too complex to describe in a YT comment. In short it's a rejection of vertically aligned state structures, favoring systems of horizontally organized, interconnected interest groups, such that no one can achieve too much power over anyone else.
Kurds are approaching this union with fear, Barzani is afraid. If he were a little brave, everything would be better for the Kurds. European countries should support the Kurds more because the Kurds are wonderful people and respect all religions.
Why you put only ethnic Kurd in different level than of turk Turkmen arab or any other ethnicity. I am reading history of colonization of XVI XIX centuries and make conclusion that nothing changed. Europeans always search for pritex . That time there was a concept of civilized nations and now so called sufferages

Yes it's safe for Kurds, many Kurds live in Syria in Damascus, nobody hurt them, they have equal right like anyone else in Syria.
Kurds are independent. They have their own cities. But too much aggression against them from Turkey.
Don't lie
Bashar skadad used to say that
How is it safe? There are no kurds left in Afrin.
If Kurds could unite peacefully, they might be able to control their own fate.

I worry about the Kurds -- Trump threw them under the Bus after destroying the ISIS Caliphate -- will Trump throw them under the Bus again?
Trump is the bus.
No
That’s what Obama and Biden did
they should not even support pyd in the first place. This move destabilised the region at the end.

Turkiye will not annex any Syrian land, but they will help the new Syrian government reclaim their entire territorial integrity.
