Between 2011 – 2016, Turkey helped ISIS and other jihadist groups directly in its actions against Kurds, and bought cheap petrol from them in exchange for military equipment. Kurdish civilians in Afrin, again under the name of 'Olive Branch Operation', were killed and their wealth looted in the beginning of 2018. It was not just that Kurds were disabled physically and economically, their land was destroyed. Millions of olive trees were cut down and sold for the benefit of Turkey, the rich fertile farmland turned into almost desert. That means colonization doesn't just destroy human life but the natural habitat as well. Once the colonizer tastes the benefits while the world continues to stand by, watch and let it happen, then the action of destruction becomes habit and the habit normalized. The problem with colonization is that it creates lazy, parasitic nations and full dependency on their hosts. It has to continue in order to sustain the colonizers nation.

In this discussion of the fate of the Kurdish people in Turkey, the author argues that understanding the future of the Kurds must include acknowledgement of the unique polemics between the Turkish state & the Kurdish battle for recognition & representation. The relationship between the state & the Turkish Kurds is traced in a historical narrative to contextualize issues of Kurdish nationalism, membership in the EU, & insurgency & the civilizing mission of the Kemalist state. Europeanization of Turks & Kurds is asserted to conflict with the growing autonomy of the Kurdish population of northern Iraq, & the need for Turkey to provide a safe environment & legal recognition through the Copenhagen criteria. The inadequacies of the Copenhagen criteria are argued to not allow Kurds to exist without restrictions, & the old ideologies of the Turkish state & military need to be controlled by democratic principles.

Les documents et notes dévoilés dans cet ouvrage constituent une source inédite et très précieuse sur la question kurde. Ils furent rédigés entre 1945 et 1979 par les diplomates français, et sommeillaient dans les archives diplomatiques françaises jusqu'à leur découverte. Ces documents révèlent des informations surprenantes et originales sur la fondation d'une république kurde à Mahabat, et les accords de 1971 signés entre Mustafa Barzani et Saddam Hussein. Chaque document est remis dans le contexte de son époque. Il est étudié avec une grande attention afin d'analyser l'évolution de la question kurde. Ces textes retracent parfaitement le rôle de la France, alors puissance mondiale, au sein de l'échiquier politique international, et plus particulièrement celui du Proche et du Moyen-Orient

I Nord-Irak har det siden 1991 eksistert en selvstyrt region, Kurdistan, som utgjør en fredelig kontrast til de arabiske delene av Irak. Kurdere over hele verden ser med håp på denne regionen, som det eneste området der kurdere styrer seg selv.
