Stop the murderous assault on Kurds

Please note that this forum is organized by The Militant Labor. For further information please contact the Militant Labor Forum mlfoakland [at] sbcglobal.com


"Turkish government bombings of fighters for Kurdish rights have received Washington's full support. These attacks have been met with protests around the world, protests that should be applauded and emulated.
Kurdish fighters are the most effective force combating the advance of the reactionary Islamic State.
The Kurds are the largest nationality in the world without their own state. They are divided between Turkey, Syria, Iraq and Iran and continue their fight for a homeland.
Every step toward the formation of an independent Kurdistan is an advance for the working class world wide and a blow against imperialist domination in the region."
