In world politics, the Kurdish people prevented the prolonging of a massacre in Syria through the resistance they showed against ISIS militants. The whole world recognized the Kurds or changed their perspective on them through this resistance. Even though this is not the case for the fascist Turkish state and its cohorts, I have observed that people from many different nations—from Europe to Asia and the Americas—have come to know the Kurds thanks to this resistance.
Now, the "suit-wearing version" of the murderous and bigoted ISIS has won the trust of European and American bureaucrats and politicians with a fake smile, reconciled with Israel, and is preparing to take the Kurds in Syria under its yoke. What is happening in Aleppo today is exactly a move carrying ISIS toward the end of these steps.
So, what caused this situation? The Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF), who did not go and take over the authority in Damascus the day Assad fled, are paying the price for the mistake they made and ignored. If they had taken the Damascus administration under control that day and buried this ISIS mentality back in the field by fighting them, they would have had the power today to bargain for an independent Kurdistan covering Rojava and Aleppo. In that case, they would have received the full support of Israel and the USA. However, they allowed ISIS militants to seize Damascus and remained silent without moving from their positions, operating on the logic of "as long as they don't touch us, it's enough."
Seeing that these events were working against them, the fascist, murderous Turkish state gave the Kurdish people within its borders a toy to distract them. They announced the start of a peace process that had no logic or reality, declaring they would conduct it with Öcalan. The person who initiated this situation was D. Bahçeli, the representative of the bloodiest group. It was inevitable that this absurd process—which the Kurds believed in without opening their eyes, as if they had taken sleeping pills, and which was clearly never going to happen—would be embraced by Öcalan, who is held captive by the Turkish state. Öcalan is a prisoner, and prisoners cannot speak a word against the will of their captors while in their hands. As he said on the day he was first captured, he was ready to serve the bloody and filthy plan of the Turkish state.
What is happening in Aleppo now stems precisely from the fragmented structure of the Kurds: the Kurds to whom the Turkish state gave a toy; the Kurds in Iran silenced by economic hardship and oppression; the Kurds in Iraq who cannot lift their heads from internal strife; and the Kurds in Rojava who remain silent despite all this resistance and power. If they knew what great qualities and quantities having a State would add to them and acted together, no one would dare to evict them from their homes today because of this fragmented structure.
This is entirely what is happening. Now, the Rojava administration and General Mazlum must think. While they still have over a hundred thousand soldiers and US support, they must summon a drop of courage and take action against the fascist, bigoted ISIS army of ten thousand, which they wrongly assume will stop. If they do not, all the suffering, struggle, power, and faith will fall completely under the yoke of the ISIS mentality and will be lost for nothing.
