Lets change the roles in Kurdistan

April 4th, 2009Mir Jan (Kurdistan & USA)

I have recently posted another article from BBC about missing bodies that were found in acid wells. Those bodies belong to people who lost their life during the conflict that took place in the 90s between Kurdistan Workers Party (aka PKK) and Turkish army. Those who died were killed by ‘unidentified’ people during the daytime, security forces never found attackers even though there were tangible evidences. Most importantly victims were not carrying arms; they were just civilians, journalists, intellectuals, politicians, businessmen. Today the whole media learned that attacks on civilians were conducted by Turkish authority.  Today another site was discovered in southeastern Turkey and hundreds of bones were found. As a result of these attacks on civilians, PKK was labeled as a terrorist organization by USA and EU. So, my question is, while the truth is being discovered, why we don’t change the role of PKK? Are they really terrorists? If they are terrorists, can anyone tell me what Turkey is?
