European
Court of Human Rights and the Kurds by
Ali Ezzatyar - 28 Feb 07 |
| |
It is ironic that by virtue of Kurdistan’s
composition within Turkey against its will, most of Kurdistan
may soon have the unprecedented opportunity to become part
of greater Europe, with all rights and liberties accorded
to it. Among the many advantages the European polity offers
to the Kurds are the legal checks and balances unavailable
in Turkey. |

of view. This concept of education is what leads to the creation
of discrimination, narrow mindedness, and many idealistic
points of view among our youth.. |

Kurdish
Culture and Bridging the Gap by

| |
We need to look sincerely and critically
at [the] cultural practices which are taken for granted in
our society. Our culture has transformed from one generation
to the next, and we need to transform with it, discarding
practices and deeds that prevent us from progressing and
achieving our goals. |
