The Ilisu Dam will be
more devastating to some of the Kurdish historical
sites such as the ancient city of Hassankeyf over
10,000 years old. There is not much time left to
stop this barbaric subtle destruction by the Fascist
Turkish Regime of Recep Teyyip Erdogan. The Ilisu
Dam project is scheduled to be completed by 2013.
Some ask “How can the responsible Turk elements for
this Tyranny live with themselves?” My short
response is very simple: “They have absolutely no
SHARAF, HEISIAT, NAMUS, nor VIJDAN, and don’t ask me
to translate these words, since English language is
too primitive to have their exact equal meanings in
many other languages particularly in the ancient
Kurdish language, but not to disappoint you; the
closest meaning I can come up with is “Human
Dignity”, “Morals”, and “Conscience”. Turk Regime is
simply excused form those human values in their
brains, never had them, and never will.
The only way to teach them how to keep up with
universal civility is through force, and placing
them under military & economic sanctions or else
kiss the humanity goodbye in Anatolia, and drag
yourselves back to 12th century’s “primitive war
mentality”.
It’s not their false by the way. When the West
through one of European states’ genius envoys
suggested to allow the Ottoman empire’s leftover
remain in existence, only reduced to a much smaller
size, and called it Turkey; that is when they
created the “Sick Man of Europe” with no cure to
stop its foolishness, greed of the newly found power
leaders of a manufactured animal from the carcasses
of a much bigger giant creature already dead, and
gone.
What brilliance. The
show off envoy to the 1920-1923 League of nations
and Lausanne summit couldn’t resist to make use of
his “askarious and trishin worms” (the medical
spelling may be different) contracted by eating too
much of incurred and contaminated pig’s meat for
breakfast, lunch, and dinner.
The worms guided his “excited worm stricken brain”
into the sick, and diseased way of fellow human
cannibalism in making plans to enjoy watching an
entire nation bleed slowly for as long as she can
bleed. For 90 years so far to be exact, but was it
also because of oil fields in Kirkuk & Basra, and
the living heartbeats of two sacred Kurdish rivers
of Tigris & Euphrates? I doubt that, because by that
time he knew Kurds are not greedy, they are kind,
and they would be willing to sell their oil, and
allow the use of their rivers in consideration of
quite reasonable fees.
Yet the wormed brain stricken envoy made it so that
all key Kurdish leaders be killed or assassinated,
including Sheikh Riza of the Kurdish region our very
subject matter is all about “Dersim” country with
her gorgeous sacred valleys, and home to the 10,000
years old Hassankeyf, and the only continuously
inhabited city in the world under attack by the
barbarian Turk regime, a rag tag unworthy group of
people with no sense of identity of their own, none
that they can be sure of for sure! They also
targeted Kurdish Leaders from South Kurdistan
Portion namely Sheikh Mahmood Barzenjy, so that the
Kurdish people remain stateless for as long as the
wormed brain sick man’s hegemony can survive his
miserable lowlife existence.
No, it was not just for money, I don’t think so, and
that’s what really gets me; that how is it; that the
rest of the envoys or representatives from other
participatory members of the meetings from 1920 all
the way to the 1923 summit fell for such a diabolic
unworthy man sent directly from hell!? “I don’t
know”, but I do know; that if you start reading the
diabolically worded treaty of Lausanne; you’ll
quickly stop after the first few pages, because they
are the most nonsense,www.ekurd.netfabricated,
conservative, and malicious written pages in the
history of post war treaty literatures I’ve ever
read, and for good reasons. Because their cowardly
planned deed to partition a whole nation of the
Kurds with the oldest history in the world was
obvious to them it is not just, and it violates any
all written international laws before that time, and
after it was illegally ratified. They all knew that
to take an entire nation of such a great people
through a Frenzy of 8, which included the 4
manufactured usurper regimes of Turkey, Iraq, Iran,
and Syria; will only be possible by men of unworthy
character, with no fear of God, and no value in
their human qualities.
Well, I’ll cut through the chase, and again
reiterate; that the only way Turkish militarist Sick
regime can listen, and stop committing fast
approaching looming Genocides against the largest
populations of Kurds out of the 4 partitioned
Kurdistan; is through force, and being resolute
rather than soft, and staying on any slippery slope
because of lack of trying a little harder to choose
the solid track to make good in your demands to get
your message across loud & clear.
Now perhaps if you are one of the key world leaders,
and reading this article you’ve gotten my meaning by
now. So I’ll stop preaching, and move on to the next
page.
There are 19 other dams in the 22 total Diabolic
projects intended to conveniently commit (or at
least that’s how Turkish regime assumes it to
be) numerous
systematic Genocides against Kurds of North
Kurdistan mostly in the vast Dersim Area populated
by about 8 million of our precious wonderful Alevi
Kurds.
After World Bank pulled out of this barbarically
intended Genocide series; Turkey was still able to
garner foreign support despite great pressure from
environmental and human rights groups, and it is
perhaps slowly bringing it back on its track.
According to news reports; Great Britain, the number
one enemy of the Kurds, has funded 236 million
dollars, and German, Swiss, and Austrian export
credit agencies had agreed to fund 610 million
dollars of the project. Despite the European firms
suspending funds by December 2008, giving Turkey 180
days to correct over 150 international standards,
and in June 2009 after failing to meet the
standards; the European firms officially cut the
funds for Ilisu Dam project.
Turkey's Environmental Minister, Veysel Eroglu then
announced in a rude manner; that "Let me tell you
this, these power plants will be built. No one can
stop it". This is the decision of the state, and PM
Recep Tayyip Erdogan, committed to the Ilsiu dam
Project, and claim Turkey will use "internal" or
"other" international funding.
Turkey has succeeded to keep the progress of all
these 22 dams quiet, and after doing some search; I
can't find a darn piece of fresh news about where
all these evil aggression stand, and how Kurdish
people of Dersim & other areas in North Kurdistan
are dealing with this stressful & abhorrent
situation.
I have not met with more environmentally dedicated
groups such as in the "WILD" Conference of 1990,
which I was a part of, trying to use new tactics to
combat this gigantic barbaric method of Ethnic and
Environmental genocide by Turkey in the name of
providing electricity for Western Turkey, which is
absolutely untrue, and apiece of hogwash.
This time I found myself obligated to sacrifice some
time again like in 1990, and write this article
painstakingly, hoping that some of you Kurdish
friends, who speak Turkish, and can translate a
little bit of news; can translate what I could not
understand in Turkish posted on the facebook in the
following Link. If so, please send the translated
English text to me at: tataii2003congress@msn.com
Thank you, and Spas.

Yes, the movement to stop the construction of some
22 Dams by the Fascist Turkish Militarist regime has
continued for years. I wrote one of the first
Resolutions to place this Genocide against our
precious ancient valleys on a ten years moratorium
by UN, and World Bank to complete an Environmental
Impact Study, and whether or not Turkish regime's
false claims of using these dams to provide
electricity for a far distant number of provinces
was legitimate & true, which proved to be
miscalculated & false.
As you know the Valleys, including the ancient "Hasankeyef"
targeted by "Ilsu" Dam , are all full of historical
remains from over 10,000 years of our civilization &
history (part of our 12,000 years Kurdish
civilization), and home to tens of thousands of
native plants & animal species in and around the
valley bottoms found no where else in the world, and
last but not least, home to over 6 million Kurdish
inhabitants. This resolution was easily passed in
the 1990 "WILD" conference, and together with other
similar Resolutions, documents; the movement was
able to stop the GAP project for years to come
thereafter, soon after WORLD Bank in a surprised
move pulled out of the project. At least 2 dams I
believe werebuilt, which included "Ataturk", and
more than 100 villages were burred under water,
misplacing more than 100,000 Kurdish villagers, and
drowning many proud Kurds, who refused to move away,
and chose to die.
My general reaction after watching the 19 minutes
video was best described as:
Tigris & Euphrates are Kurdish Territory in the
bosoms of Kurdistan Motherland. It belongs to Kurds
from time immemorial.No "Turk" No "Arab" NO "Fars"
can claim them other than “Kurd”, the aboriginal.
Tigris & Euphrates are inseparable parts of
KURDISTAN FOR EVER.Stop messing around with my
motherland stupid invaders, and get out ASAP.Death
to our enemies, and Long Live KURDISTAN.

GAP project is a part of the continuous ethnocide
policy intended to destroy the historical and
cultural identity of Kurds in North Kurdistan. In
addition, it imposes significant hazards on the
health of the neighboring people by increasing the
rate of parasitic and other infectious disease
incidence. Of course, the "neighboring people" are
Kurds too!
Steve Tataii’s response:
March 30, 2010
Thank you for your feedback on affirming my comment
& the additional point on these projects. The
negative impacts made are endless destructions,
which is why most of them, not yet built, must be
stopped by responsible world's able democratic peace
loving states very quickly (many of which we keep
assuming they truly are democratic, and many others
choosing to remain silent, while all of them watch
Kurds undergoing the following horrifying terror on
regular basis since 1920 to this date in 2010
described in a nutshell:
Vicious assaults on their citizens, hundreds of
children arrested, and imprisoned along with
thousands of political prisoner adults, their leader
illegally kidnapped and imprisoned since 1999, their
peaceful political parties declared illegal, their
freedom defensive national forces labeled
“Terrorists”, their common innocent citizens’ home
randomly raided, and damaged in “surprised”
unannounced vicious attacks by military,
paramilitary, and other Turkish thugs in plain cloth
without compensation, their language banned to the
point; that after 90 years of such a prohibition &
forceful attempts at assimilation into mandatory
Turkish language; it is still not back to normal
practice in a symbolic gesture of allowing a stupid
TV broadcasting in Kurdish under the fascist Turkish
editors and organizers controlled by Ankara, trying
to impress EU for membership, their mandatory
Kurdish military service turned into ongoing murder
of Kurdish soldiers regularly, and maliciously
blamed on having committed suicide, their villages
mostly in Qandil mountains, and Hakkari district
bombed on regular basis, their defense forces’ call
for ceasefires to sign peace treaties & get general
amnesty ignored by Turkish military in dozens of
attempts since 1992, their cities kept
underdeveloped, most of the best of their Kurdish
villages in a large area of Kurdish homeland called
“Dersim” being buried under water by dams,
displacing hundreds of thousands of Kurdish
villagers, regular military assaults on peaceful
Kurdish demonstrations in all major cities, towns,
and villages, when even Kurdish children have been
shot, and killed, their Kurdish Meyers, and
politicians being arrested on regular basis, and
massively since February of this year, and the list
goes on and on and on.
In short; their homeland, people, and their
environment are all subjects of assaults, and
aggression endlessly since 1920, when Genocides
Killed more than 1.5 million Kurdish civilians, and
destroyed over 20,000 villages. You call Turkey a
Democracy or do you still believe many political
experts, and credited human rights investigated
assessments are all wrong to recognize Turkey as the
number one Terrorist state with the worst human
rights violation records in the world? Or will you
keep your comments to yourselves, and allow Kurds to
continue being persecuted, and terrorized with no
end at sight?
Another much more vital point worth mentioning is
what I would refer to as the second major "major"
false claim by Turkey; that the Dams will be helpful
for agriculture, doubling the Ag production. This is
so "so" obviously stupidly, and totally wrong; that
the person spreading this false vicious news should
be arrested, and punished properly, never allowed to
make such a deceiving statement again.
He should have explained the exact opposite, which
is to say; that the Valleys, and villages left as
they are will continue to grow a lot more
successfully on their own, and using the THOUSANDS
of Water Springs, by easily directing, and
redirecting their stream currents into healthy, and
larger Ag lands winding around the hills, and
reaching natural flat lands.
The Dams would not only be impossible to have a
successful Ag cultivation & production after
drowning the valleys, villages, and the already
existing Ag land base otherwise lost when under
water, but it would permanently destroy thousands of
plants, and killing thousands of native animal
species not found anywhere else in the world, and
necessary to keep the balance of nature for their
lower & unique land or simply "Homeland" lived in
and survived for many thousands of years.
I'm especially referring to the mentioned tens of
thousands of spring water sources Kurds call "Kani"
in Kurdish, each being their own best source of
irrigation system. The Turk claimers of the diabolic
assessments are so stupid that they would never know
the extent of their stupidity unless they're told
enough until it sinks in!
This is why those particular "Anti-Kurd Turks" must
leave Kurdistan back to Turk areas in North of North
Kurdistan, and never come back or if they're spewing
those gibberish from their government offices in
Ankara, and Turk cities elsewhere; they should all
stay out of Kurdish internal & national affairs in
Dersim & other Kurd areas home to over 30,000,000
Kurd citizens of North Kurdistan out of the over 50
million Kurds in KURDISTAN, and shut the hell up.
Biji Spas (Thank you)
Finally, today was the 24th anniversary in
commemoration with the martyrdom of a most dedicated
& decorated giant Kurdish Freedom Fighter Commander,
Egid [1984-1986], who lost his life on the line of
duty in defense of Kurdish national rights to their
land, language, and freedom to Rule themselves by
their own Kurd Leaders in Kurdistan.
For this occasion I wrote in Sorani & also Kurmanji
Kurdish:

Today was also the anniversary of Turkey’s chemical
weapon attack on Kurdish Defensive Forces, which
killed 14.
