World Kobanê Day – A Torch of Resilience and Resistance: ICOR

In 2014, amidst the brutal siege by fascist ISIS, the people of Kobanê stood tall in defiance, fighting not only for their existence but for social and national liberation. As the revolutionary forces in Kobanê neared victory, the first Worldwide Kobanê Day was declared, a day of international action that reminded humanity of the power of people’s self-defense and the commitment for liberation.

By January 2015, Kobanê was liberated, and in the face of devastation, it began to rise again. With unwavering international solidarity, including the construction of an ICOR healthcare center by brigades from around the world, Kobanê became a symbol of hope. In Rojava, a new society began to take root, built on democratic self-administration, gender equality, and ecological principles, creating a unique achievment in the world.

Today, World Kobanê Day comes at a time of escalating imperialist aggression, the unrelenting violence of Zionism, and the deepening crisis of capitalism. The lessons of Kobanê and the resistance of the people of North and East Syria are more relevant than ever. Kobanê’s struggle lives on in the resilience of the Palestinian people, in the people’s fight for freedom across the region, and in the international movement against imperialism and colonialism.

Kobanê teaches us that the struggle for liberation is a shared one. It shows us that only through united resistance can we overcome imperialist powers and achieve true social and national liberation. The strength of Kobanê’s resistance lives on in the hearts of all oppressed peoples, from Palestine to Kurdistan, from the whole region to all corners of the world.

With the lessons learned from Kobanê and the solidarity demonstrated in the ICOR healthcare center, we rise on this World Kobanê Day, taking to the streets in a united stand against imperialism, fascism, colonialism, and Zionism. We march to honor the martyrs of Rojava and to defend a future of dignity and justice for the peoples of the region. We march to connect our struggles, to share our experiences, and to build the bonds of solidarity that strengthen our collective fight for liberation.

As we embrace the spirit of World Kobanê Day, we also commit ourselves to waging the Al Awda Hospital project in Gaza, a symbol of rebuilding Palestine with our peoples forces. Together, we will heal the wounds of our beloved peoples.

From Kobanê to Gaza, from Kurdistan to Palestine, the struggle for freedom and dignity continues.

PFLP Comrades Mohammed Khalil Wishah and Mufid Hassan Hussein are Immortal! — MLKP

You cannot kill Palestine, you cannot destroy its honor, its resistance, its dedication to victory!

Despite the genocidal massacres carried out by the racist, fascist, Zionist Israeli regime supported by Trump and NATO, the selfless and courageous Palestinian people, who have not abandoned their homeland and continue to resist and struggle, are being deprived of revolutionary leadership and the revolutionary vanguard is being dismantled through continued assassinations targeting PFLP leaders and cadres.

As we know from the PFLP’s statement, PFLP Central Committee member Mohammed Khalil Wishah spent his life as a fighter in Cairo, Baghdad, Beirut, and Damascus, enduring captivity, imprisonment, exile, and oppression. He took on responsibilities in the occupied territories. He defended the revolution in the camps, in the Bekaa Valley, in the south, and in many other areas. Mufid Hasan Hussein, one of the PFLP’s field commanders, took on tasks to protect many leadership cadres as a reliable and courageous comrade until the end. The murder of the two comrades is a new bloody proof of the fascist Zionist plan to deprive the Palestinian people of revolutionary leadership and to disperse the revolutionary vanguard.

The assassinations targeting the PFLP’s leadership are aimed at the same goal as those carried out in Kurdistan, Turkey, the Philippines, India, and Colombia in previous years. Ayman Naim Saeed al-Madhoun and Mohammed Khalil Wishah; Ali Haydar Kaytan and Nurettin Sofi; Wilma Austria and Benito Tiamzon; Nambala Keshav Rao and Lakshmi Chaitanya, Bayram Namaz and Zeki Gürbüz were all killed for the same purpose, with the same goal. They want to destroy revolutionary parties by eliminating their general staffs and pour concrete over the rights and demands for freedom of the working class, the poor, the oppressed peoples, the oppressed gender, and the oppressed religious and national communities. This is why a large chorus of enemies of the people, from the fascists at the head of the US and NATO, to Tayyip Erdoğan, Netanyahu, Lebanese Prime Minister Nawaf Salam, to all the fascist, racist, reactionary state leaders of the Middle East, and people like Mahmoud Abbas, have frequently repeated the threat of “eliminating non-state armed groups” in the Middle East, especially in the last 7-8 months. By destroying revolutionary parties, breaking the revolutionary will, and leaving workers, women, youth, and the poor unarmed and defenseless, they seek to establish the new slave-based world order and fascist feudalism that imperialist globalization capitalism requires.

But it will not succeed. Because the desire, need, dream, and struggle of the oppressed laboring people for freedom, social justice, gender equality, national equality, and a dignified, brotherly life cannot be destroyed.

With eternal faith in the survival and victory of the struggle and cause for the liberation of Palestine from the fascist, colonialist, and Zionist occupation, for which comrades Mohammed Khalil Washah and Mufid Hasan Hussein devoted their lives, once again.

To develop and strengthen the practices of cooperation and solidarity of the world’s revolutionary forces; Workers, women, youth and the poor are encouraged to support and join the ranks of revolutionary parties that carry out political struggle with armed organizations and means as well as unarmed;

To support the resistance of the Palestinian people; to stand against the fascist, Zionist genocide of the State of Israel; to carry out actions around the world in solidarity with the PFLP;

We call for commemorations for Mohammed Khalil Washah, Mufid Hasan Hussein and Nurettin Sofi and Metin Arslan, who were declared immortal.

Mohammed Khalil Washah and Mufid Hasan Hussein live, PFLP fights!
The only way is revolution. Long Live Socialism!
Long live international solidarity and united struggle!

MLKP: Hanzala is the Conscience of the Oppressed, Genocidal Murderers Will Be Held Accountable!

Following October 7th, Zionism’s barbarity escalated to unprecedented levels, reminding the world of the Palestinians’ historic and legitimate struggle for national liberation. It is clear that the genocide targeting Palestinians in Gaza and its escalation in the West Bank is not merely a regional problem.

Palestinian freedom has become a global issue of political freedom and democracy, striking at the heart of imperialism, revealing the rottenness of the colonial bourgeois social order.

Progressive humanity is mobilizing worldwide, taking a position, and willing to make many sacrifices in the face of the Palestinian issue.

Initiatives such as the Global March to Gaza, the Convoy of Resolve, and the Freedom Flotillas are acts of brotherhood among peoples that represent the conscience of humanity. While people in Gaza are starving daily or being massacred at aid stops, Zionism has once again attacked a ship attempting to bring urgent supplies to occupied Gaza. All activists on the Hanzala ship, including ICOR Deputy General Coordinator Hatem Laouini, who was previously one of the leaders of the Convoy of Resolve, were arrested.

The attack on the Hanzala ship is a manifestation of the quagmire of the Zionist occupation, which has been given free rein with the support of Western imperialism, especially the imperialist US, and the cooperation of reactionary Arab states, and which has far surpassed bourgeois rules of war and hypocritical morality.

Hatem Laouini and all activists on the Hanzala must be released immediately! Let us unite our forces, upholding the finest traditions of proletarian internationalism, and let us raise the banner of freedom of Palestine, which represents our own freedom!

The Middle East belongs to free and equal peoples who build democracy and socialism.

There is No Other Path But Revolution for the Liberation of the Working Class and the Oppressed: MLKP Statement PKK 12th Congress

Since August 15, 1984, the PKK has been waging a major struggle against denialist colonialism and fascism, centered on guerrilla warfare. It has made significant progress toward the Kurdish people’s right to national freedom and unity, on a path of the highest sacrifice as expressed in the 40,000 fallen comrades. It was one of the leading forces resisting the wave of liquidation that broke out worldwide in 1990-1991 and led the Rojava Revolution in 2012. The PKK convened its 12th Congress and decided to dissolve itself and end the armed struggle. The Congress announced that the forces of the PKK will continue the political struggle with unarmed and legal organizations and forms of struggle, that they have full confidence in the new strategy and line, and that the leadership of the movement will guide the process from now on.

Our party, which considers it a revolutionary duty to share its thoughts on the two key strategic decisions and some of the theses adopted by the Congress with the peoples of Kurdistan and Turkey, with the Arab, Persian, and Azerbaijani peoples, and especially with the revolutionaries of the region and the communist, revolutionary, and anti-fascist parties and organizations worldwide, has come to the following conclusions in its assessment of the PKK’s 12th Congress decisions:

1) Ending the armed struggle and free organization, as well as the formal handover of weapons to this or that interlocutor through an unwritten agreement, that does not guarantee fundamental national-democratic rights such as mother tongue education and national autonomy, and essential rights such as the unconditional release of prisoners of war and the unconditional return of all guerrilla forces and political exiles to Northern Kurdistan, is the acceptance of a peace that is neither just nor democratic.

2) Apart from the fact that certain legislative changes expected by the fascist chief regime are based on keeping collective national democratic rights under lock and key, the aim is not to shed light on the fascist colonial crimes against humanity and hold the criminals accountable, but on the contrary to bring the guerrillas as individuals and persons who have committed crimes before the colonial justice system. This is intended to pave the way for the policy of the fascist colonialist enemy, which is organizing the mood and practice of capitulation.

3) The new strategic line, based on the theses and beliefs that armed struggle, illegal means and methods of the party have lost their validity and that the colonial yoke cannot be overthrown in a revolutionary manner, that a struggle cannot be waged outside the boundaries drawn by denialist colonialism, is liquidationist and reformist.

4) The same thesis, based on the claim to transform colonialism and conquer the fortress from within, making it inherently reformist because it bypasses the economic core of the problem and reduces colonialism to the policies of the ruling national bourgeoisie or governments.

5) Theses such as “real socialist influence,” “denial has been resolved since the Özal era,” and organizational-ideological “irrelevance and repetition” are expressions of the theorization of the reformist new strategy and line.

6) The thesis of “democratic socialism versus nation-state socialism” seeks to provide ideological ammunition for the reformist line, which is based on the idea that revolution is unnecessary. It detaches socialism from the reality of classes and has a reformist character based on the denial and rejection of the Union of Soviet Republics, which is the achievment of the October Revolution and is based on the full equality of nations.

7) Our party has no doubt about the subjective sincerity of the PKK Congress’s statements, according to which the national democratic forces, which are to be organized on a legal, peaceful basis, are to be mobilized for a determined political struggle. Our party, which holds the position that popular dynamics will develop on a legal, practical, and legitimate basis, maintains its stance of alliance with the new structure based on national democratic and general democratic rights and freedoms, and will act accordingly.

8) It is the current task of the revolutionary and anti-chauvinist anti-fascist parties and groups in Turkey and Northern Kurdistan to expand the struggle to stop the colonialist peace process and prevent the fascist regime from exploiting the situation to strengthen itself, by demanding a just and democratic Turkish-Kurdish national peace. In this context, we call on the revolutionary and anti-chauvinist anti-fascist parties and groups, as well as the workers, women, youth, poor, laborers, LGBTI+, artists, and intellectuals of the Kurdish and Turkish peoples, the Arab, Circassian, Armenian, Greek, Bosniak, Pomak, Assyrian, Chaldean, Albanian, Romani, Laz, Georgian, and Azerbaijani national communities, the Alevi and Yazidi religious communities, to join us in calling for the official recognition of the existence of the Kurdish nation and the right to mother tongue education, the release of Abdullah Öcalan and all prisoners of war, revolutionary, anti-fascist political prisoners, the declaration of an unconditional ceasefire, the repeal of the fascist anti-terror law, the dissolution of fascist colonialist dirty war organizations such as Jitem, the special forces, and the village guards; the disclosure of the graves of revolutionaries, patriots, and democrats who were disappeared by the fascist state forces, and an immediate end to the occupations of Rojava and Bashûr.

9) There is no other path for the liberation of the working class and the oppressed, for the freedom of women, for the equality of peoples than revolution! As long as the monopoly of arms and violence remains in the hands of states serving the imperialist and collaborating bourgeoisie, in the hands of colonialism and the patriarchal system, as long as the workers, women, the oppressed, and the poor are kept unarmed and condemned to fight with their bare fists against rifle barrels, tanks, and cannons, revolution is impossible. The goals of freedom, justice, and equality for women and peoples cannot be achieved through legal, peaceful means and forms, through parliamentary struggle. A socialist society can never be built in this way. This is the clear and final verdict of the last 150 years of struggle between the working class and the bourgeoisie, between the oppressors and the oppressed, between the rich and the poor. Based on this truth, we call on the working class, the laborers, women, youth, the poor and oppressed people of Kurdistan and Turkey to support the struggle, waged by all means and forms, legal and illegal, peaceful and based on mass violence, armed and unarmed, to unite, organize, and fight in this direction.

MLKP IB Statement In Solidarity With The Week Of Action In Support Of The PPW In India

On behalf of the MLKP, we extend our solidarity to the dedicated revolutionaries of India during the International and Internationalist Action Week of the year-long Campaign in Support of the People’s War in India.

Through massacres, forced deportations, murders of villagers and indigenous people, social activists, and revolutionary leaders, as well as the persecution of journalists and human rights defenders, the fascist Hindutva regime in India is attempting to defeat the revolutionary movement and crush the just demands of the people. Backed militarily and with intelligence by US imperialism, the collaborationist Indian state, now under the leadership of the Hindu fascist Modi, uses special military operations such as the counterrevolutionary Operation Kagaar to achieve its aims.

Over the past 15 years, the fascist Hindutva Indian regime has intensified its repression and liquidationist attacks against revolutionary, democratic, and progressive movements. Dignified people who dare to raise their voices against military repression and the killing of thousands of indigenous people in the zones where the CPI (Maoist) operates are branded as “urban Maoists” and arrested under special laws. We once again commemorate revolutionary intellectual Dr. G.N. Saibaba, who lost his life on October 12th after years of imprisonment in brutal conditions that severely deteriorated his health.

The methods of counterrevolutionary attacks against the CPI (Maoist) and the People’s Liberation Guerrilla Army (PLGA) are well known to revolutionaries across the world. These methods are being intensified from Kurdistan and Turkey to the Philippines and India to smother the revolutionary flames and with it, the hope for a dignified, free life without exploitation and oppression. The CPI (Maoist) resists these attacks combatively, inspiring revolutionary fighting spirit and resistance morale worldwide.

With known bluster, Modi declared that he would eliminate Naxalism by March 2026, but he will face resistance and revolutionary dedication backed by international solidarity.

We salute the international united struggle against imperialism, fascism, and Zionism, which is called for in the campaign, and reaffirm our commitment to standing with the revolutionaries in India and the Palestinian resistance against the counterrevolutionary front, which stretches from the murderers and enemies of the people, Netanyahu, to one of his greatest supporters, Modi.

We bow in deep respect to the immortalized leaders and members of the CPI (Maoist) and demand:

• Stop Operation Kagaar!

Raise international solidarity with CPI (Maoist) and the PLGA!

Freedom for all political prisoners in India!

Let’s struggle against imperialist war and in solidarity with the Palestinian people!

Long live proletarian internationalism!

On Ocalan’s Call for Peace and Social Democratic Imperialism: An Anarchist Communist Critique

Revolutionary struggle is never a solitary endeavor; rather it is an unfolding process replete with contradiction and tension. But sifting through the complexity what fundamentally endures is solidarity and principles. When we – anarchist and communist revolutionaries – embark on the path of struggle we expect to exist, grow and die in a life of contradiction and tension, but we also intend for the path we are on to steadily maintain the positions that we’ve historically defined as unequivocal. In essence, some things are negotiable, some deviations are forgivable, and some can be treacherous. The recent positions and actions by the PKK, in several of its components, are not only inconsistent with revolutionary struggle, but have deviated so far from the established principles of proletarian and internationalist struggle that the project has now veered into an essentially revisionist, collaborationist posture. This is particularly alarming as the internationalist movement exceedingly needs heightened, resolute and honorable positions as the challenges facing us are grave and growing.

We are writing from an anarchist communist position that is far from monolithic in our locale, or in general, but we have also been at the forefront of solidarity efforts with the PKK since the formation of the International Freedom Battalion, the HBDH, and the establishment of the anarchist guerrilla faction, the IRPGF. We have been increasingly alarmed at ongoing developments and the most recent political realities need to be addressed. We are not writing this with any elation and are not laying out this statement from a dogmatic, idealist stance. In actuality, we maintained principled silence on a whole host of revisionist deviations, and would have continued out of respect for the complex and dynamic position the combatants find themselves in at the forefront in the conflict zones in West Asia. However, recent developments have pushed us to publicly critique the organization in spite of our admiration for their historical accomplishments.

In the earlier phases of the struggle in Rojava, the US and the YPG both stated their collaboration was “temporary, transactional and tactical”; in essence, not a strategic partnership but a brief association to combat ISIS. This stated position is now, approximately, 8 years old and has turned into unarguably a comprehensive strategic partnership.

The reality is even more stark in light of the larger situation in West Asia today. The Palestinian Revolution, ignited by the monumental October 7th operation, followed by remarkable acts of solidarity performed in northern occupied Palestine and the Red Sea, set a new stage in contemporary struggle against colonialism and imperialism, but is also an illustrative example of resistance for the entire internationalist movement. The war against the Zionist settler regime, and in effect the US-led imperialist world system, is at an elevated state, and due to the genocidal nature of the imperialist forces, the planned ethnic cleansing of Palestinians, and the potential of success for the Resistance in Gaza, the liberation of Palestine must have a central role. To be clear, this is not to contrast the Kurdish movement with the Palestinian movement, but to highlight a fundamental contradiction that has reached its peak. The Zionist regime, being a settler appendage of US power projection, has embarked on a genocidal campaign, and the eradication of the Zionist state will put unprecedented pressure on American imperialism, particularly as the US is a wounded animal that has been in decline for some time due to its intensifying excesses. In this context, the PKK partnership with the American regime is particularly inconceivable – as a crucial war for liberation against colonialism rages on in the region.

The opportunism in this collusion is evident but there are also three other crucial points that we feel must be addressed to clarify the true scope of the morass.

1) The historic statement by Abdullah Ocalan calling for the PKK to lay down its arms and to dissolve itself not only betrays the strategy of revolutionary people’s war, self-defense, and proletarian struggle; the release of the statement had been timed at the height of the counter-revolutionary push across the region, which is the HTS/Turkish consolidation of power and the Zionist colonial expansion in Syria.

The statement was met with confusion initially by PKK executive committee members. Murat Karayilan, for instance, stated, “Let’s assume that he [Ocalan] made the call. But this work cannot be done only through a call. We are a movement with tens of thousands of armed people. These fighters are not on a payroll to be sacked. These are ideological fighters. They have beliefs and are willing to sacrifice themselves.”

The Turkish revolutionary organization, the MLKP who is allied with the PKK, resoundingly rejected the statement arguing:

We strongly emphasize that the view in the “Call for Peace and a Democratic Society,” which states, “There is no path outside of democracy for system searches and implementations. There cannot be. Democratic consensus is the fundamental method,” is incompatible with the reality of polarization between oppressors and the oppressed, the rich and the poor, the rulers and the oppressed peoples in Turkey, Kurdistan, and worldwide. In a world where the ruling class, through their state apparatuses, hold the monopoly on violence, have access to the means of violence, are armed to the teeth, fascistize state apparatuses, and divide the world with blood and fire, it is impossible for the working class, women, oppressed peoples, and workers to achieve their basic demands, gain freedom, and create a just, humane world without armed struggle and revolutionary mass violence.

The MLKP will continue the fight for freedom against the fascist regime, denialist colonialism, the patriarchal system, capitalist exploitation, and imperialism, for the Union of the People’s Republics of Turkey and Kurdistan, for the Democratic and Socialist Federation in the Middle East, and for the war for socialism, using all means and forms of struggle.

We echo a similar sentiment here. The renunciation of revolutionary self defense and mass violence is the siren call of a movement replete with bourgeois revisionism. Other segments in Ocalan’s call illuminate the same issues: the demands for “free self-expression, democratic self-organization of each segment of society based on their own socio-economic and political structures”; the idea that “permanent and fraternal continuity” can be achieved if it is “crowned with democracy.” Or that “there is no alternative to democracy in the pursuit and realization of a political system. Democratic consensus is the fundamental way.” This is the language of imperialist power; it is the language of liberalism. We don’t mean this in a pejorative sense either, but literally. The discourse of democracy separated from class war, a movement without an armed component, or a strategic initiative against the colonialist enemies is merely speaking the language of defeat.

2) Mazloum Abdi, the top SDF general, who was in the PKK high command, the HPG and a personal friend of Ocalan, publicly stated that the YPG is open to support from the Zionist colonial regime. Abdi stated if the occupation regime can “prevent attacks against us and stop the killing of our people, we welcome that and appreciate it… ‘Israel’ is a force with influence in the US, the West, and the region.” As we noted, Palestine is the compass for anti-colonial revolution, and publicly articulating (particularly now) a desire to open relations with the Zionist regime is unconscionable.

From Imrali Island to SDF headquarters, the whispers of social democratic imperialism have now become screams, however, in Qandil, and HBDH guerrilla zones we hear a different discourse. Cemil Bayik recently stated, for instance that, “A new Syria is being built, and it is based on protecting ‘Israel’ and the global capital. What does ‘Israel’ represent? It represents global capital; it represents the capitalist system. Protecting ‘Israel’ does not only mean protecting Israel; it also means protecting the system of capitalist modernity.”

After the martyrdom of Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah the MLKP proclaimed his “memory will live on in the struggle for a free and united Middle East,” while also calling “on the peoples of Kurdistan and Turkey to take the streets, side by side with the peoples of Palestine and Lebanon, against genocidal colonialism.” TKP-ML’s Martyr Nubar Ozanyan Brigade, based in Rojava, proclaimed that “Nasrallah has become an example of resistance against ‘Israels’ brutality, attacks and occupations.” They called “on all peoples to take a stand against genocide and to actively solidarize with the Palestinian and Lebanese people,” since the “only remedy for the oppressed against this system is to unite in a common line of resistance and to strengthen solidarity networks with the oppressed peoples of the world.”

These positions hearken back to the foundational era of the PKK’s Kurdish Freedom struggle, when guerrillas were based in the Bekaa Valley as guests of the Palestinian Resistance, and even took casualties fighting Zionist colonialists in the 1982 battle for the Castle Arnun in Lebanon. Evoking this period highlights the nature of the political differences that have emerged, and the consolidation of bourgeois thought and practice within the upper echelon of the PKK – seemingly the dominant perspectives. The revolutionary parties and some of the executive branch in Qandil fully understands that the Kurdish Freedom Movement, allied with the Palestinian Resistance is unmistakably the path to liberate both societies – merged again through resistance.

Practically speaking, the Resistance in Palestine and Lebanon wanted a front opened against the Zionist regime from Syria. The Assad regime, being as opportunistic and cynical as expected, refused to open a new front for the Resistance, leaving Hezbollah to take the brunt of the fighting in the north singlehandedly. If PKK/YPG forces had opened a front, even symbolically, the contradictions that exist would have been severely disrupted, solidarity between the stateless peoples would have been strengthened and the repairing of Kurdish-Arab ties could have been addressed with a foundational basis of revolutionary solidarity and not political maneuvering.

3) The SDF/YPG announcement of their political and military merger with the HTS regime in Damascus signals an impending collapse of the revolutionary project.

The HTS seizure of power in Syria is the culmination of a counter revolutionary process targeting Palestine and revolutionary Kurdistan in tandem. HTS, like its counterparts ISIS and Al-Qaeda, are accomplices with the fascist Turkish state. Its military offensive against Assad, timed on the very day of the ceasefire in Lebanon – November 27th – was designed to put extraordinary pressure on the Palestinian Resistance and its supporters during a period of vulnerability. In this regard, it was almost certainly agreed upon by the Zionists and their American sponsors. Before the offensive, the US and Zionist regime were beaten to a stalemate in Lebanon and the HTS actions became the one marker of strategic success for imperialism in the entire al-Aqsa Flood battle. Fascist Prime Minister Netanyahu claimed the collapse of the Syrian regime was “a direct result of the blows we have inflicted” on the anti-Zionist Resistance forces.

On the Kurdish side, the success of the HTS military operation brought to power the same people the PKK had fought against since the rise of ISIS and it also rejuvenated the Turkish backed SNA forces that were attacking the YPG in the north. However, this also put political pressure on revolutionary factions in the Kurdish movement since Rojava was surrounded by hostile forces who have now gained momentum.

The Communist factions have maintained the position that striving for a Kurdish nation, allied with internationalist anti-imperialist forces as a bulwark against Western expansion is the objective. The PKK, on the other hand, proposed the formation of the democratic nation, opposed to the nation-state system, where directly-democratic communes organize themselves, cutting through the miscellaneous Sykes-Picot arrangement, and through ethnic divisions. But the opportunistic forces in the PKK, based in Syria and Turkey, disregarded both revolutionary propositions and took Ocalan’s call for disarming/dissolution and the opportunity to appease western forces to its logical conclusion. As TKP-ML stated in their recent text about Ocalan’s call, “it appears that even this ‘paradigm’” – Democratic Confederalism – “has now been abandoned.” In both instances, in Syria and Turkey, the party is calling for subsumption by both states. In Turkey the PKK calls for the establishment of a democratic process, which as Cemil Bayak says the conditions for such an initiative do not even exist. He states, “The Turkish state attacks us every day with all kinds of weapons. How are we going to stop under these circumstances? Of course, our struggle continues.” In Syria, Salih Muslim, spokesperson for the PYD’s foreign relations, reinforces the capitulation, claiming that the agreement with HTS is consistent with Ocalan’s decree.

We should also note that the signing of the agreement with the HTS regime, just like the offensive against Assad, was timed in a particularly heinous manner. The signing ceremony was commenced immediately after one of the gravest massacres – resembling Sabra and Chatilla – was committed by regime forces. Recent estimates maintain that almost 1400 people were slaughtered by the state in western Syria, the vast majority civilians, with tacit approval by the west and their puppet Arab states.

In the imperial core, particularly in the US, we had struggled against the revisionist creep in Rojava solidarity efforts; promoting the combative forces and maintaining the line of armed struggle, anti-imperialism, while supporting efforts either towards the Kurdish nation, or the Democratic Confederalist line. Both positions have merit, and solidarity was established through struggle, with its clearest articulation in the International Freedom Battalion in Rojava, and the HBDH in Turkey in Bakur. Through this process we have also understood mourning, loss and sacrifice. The internationalist movement has given martyrs from all over the world; Orhan Bakırcıyan, Ivana Hoffmann, Dogan Kirefe, Lorenzo Orsetti, Michael Israel, Ulaş Bayraktaroglu, Alina Sanchez, Nurhak Cem, and the list continues.

In memory of the fallen it is our responsibility to clearly proclaim that the direction the party has taken is contrary to the stated objectives of the revolution: from either the class struggle position or the Democratic Nation. We hope non-revisionist forces within the struggle can exert the necessary pressure to prevent a further drift towards reaction and normalization with imperialism. In a similar manner that Fatah’s capitulation in the Palestinian struggle damned the left to years of insignificance, or Khrushchev’s peaceful coexistence betrayed anti-colonial forces, thoroughly discrediting the Soviet project, the PKK’s shift towards integration and peaceful coexistence with US imperialism will certainly have a similar effect.

The integration of revolutionary political forces into the Western-backed state in Syria, and the dismantling of revolutionary military forces in Qandil and Bakur is totally irreconcilable and antagonistic to the furtherance of the internationalist movement. The Kurdish Revolution, with the PKK as its primary revolutionary force, cannot prevail after being absorbed into bourgeois, fascist political structures in West Asia; in fact, the most advanced sections of the movement – the women’s movement and the armed struggle – will only survive if the democratic aspirations of the Kurdish people are fulfilled and maintained through embracing the principled positions that have been established and continuing to combine efforts with other forces fighting against imperialism today. People’s War, the Democratic Confederalist model, and the “right to freely secede” (the right to establish a Kurdish nation which is now rejected by Ocalan), are all positions that reject absorption and must be upheld. As TKP-ML succinctly stated, “Renouncing or refusing to demand.. national-collective rights does not mean that the Kurdish national question has been resolved, nor does it indicate that the contradiction between the oppressor and oppressed nations has disappeared.

Due to wary statements from some members of the PKK leadership and the revolutionary organizations we believe there is still potential to pivot and rectify the situation internally. We are certain the guerrillas in the mountains, the commando units in the cities, and local organizers who worked diligently to build popular power are questioning these positions. Revolutionaries in Kurdistan and elsewhere understand what is at stake and that now is not the time for half measures. The collaborationist posture is particularly egregious as antagonisms and conflict are amplified in the region. The internationalist anarchist and communist positions must further the line against capitulation.

For a free Kurdistan and a free Palestine!

No to unilateral ceasefire and disarmament!

HBDH Executive Committee: Comrade Baran Serhat Lives in Our United Revolutionary Struggle!

We sent off comrade Baran Serhat, one of the pioneers of our United Revolution, to immortality in a treacherous attack 6 years ago. Despite those who murdered him, comrade Baran Serhat continues to lead our United Revolution struggle. His successors are now proudly waving the glorious flag that he never let go of until his last breath, in the mountains, cities, prisons, squares, factories and schools of Turkey and Kurdistan, in the toughest trenches of the struggle. The dreams of those who think that they can end the struggle for revolution by massacring the revolutionaries are once again shattered. It is again the red road of the revolution that advances to victory despite all the difficult conditions and the all-out attacks of the fascist power. The sacrifice and effort of comrade Baran Serhat on this red road continues to guide us today, as it did yesterday. Comrade Baran Serhat devoted his life to the revolutionary struggle to carry our world, where exploitation and oppression prevail, to salvation and freedom. He became a creative leader by adapting the huge struggle experience he received from his predecessors to the conditions he was in. Wherever there was oppression and pain, he took his place at the forefront of the struggle of the peoples. The cities and prisons of Türkiye-Northern Kurdistan witnessed his many brave actions. He made the enemy kneel down with his upright stance, turning every place he was in into a fortress where the revolution was defended.

Comrade Baran Serhat was a master revolutionary who lived as he thought and brought theory to life with practice. He became both a brave warrior and a creative commander and leader of the struggle, positioned himself in accordance with whatever the need of the struggle was, and embraced his duties accordingly. He made intense efforts to develop the common struggle of the people by not recognizing the artificial borders created. He played important roles in protecting and advancing the Rojava Revolution and in expanding the internationalist struggle. He pioneered the establishment and development of our United Revolution movement and undertook historical duties. And in March, which witnessed many heroisms, resistances and also massacres, he fell to the ground in the attack of the fascist Turkish state and its gangs.

We are going through times when the flow of history has entered a sharp turn. We are in a process in which the contradictions and struggles between the rulers who drag the world towards a great destruction and the world’s peoples on the other side have become much sharper. Learning from the lives of the martyrs of the revolution and commemorating them is the most meaningful way to commemorate them, in conditions where revolutionary militancy, revolutionary values ​​and strong comradeship are as necessary as bread and water. Because they walked towards the enemy, never taking a step back from their struggle under the most difficult conditions, always moving forward, never hesitating for a moment, they became indomitable warriors of truth by embracing the consciousness of sacrifice. They instilled hope in the world and humanity, defying pessimism and indecision.

Those we send off to eternity in the struggle for revolution and socialism are the sources of resistance of our revolutionary war. They are monuments of resistance that show us what to do in the face of the unjust wars, occupations, oppression and torture, exploitation and massacres that continue today. We will increase the fight with the awareness that commemorating them is to develop the revolutionary struggle.

While we respectfully commemorate comrade Baran Serhat and all the monuments of resistance, we promise that we will walk more determinedly on the path they walked, that we will expand the united struggle, and that we will carry the struggle for revolution and socialism to victory. Let us raise the struggle for the United Revolution against imperialism, capitalism, fascism and male domination.

Comrade Baran Serhat Lives in Our Struggle in the Year of Immortality!
Martyr Namirin!

Remembering Ivana Hoffmann: Black Internationalist MLKP Fighter Martyred in Rojava

We honor Ivana Hoffmann, a young Black communist fighter from Germany who sacrificed her life on March 7, 2015, at just 19 years old, defending Til Temir against ISIS in Rojava.

Ivana, known by her battle name Avaşin Tekoşin Güneş, was the daughter of a German mother and a Togolese father. From a young age, she distinguished herself through her commitment to fighting racism and sexism, joining the “Young Struggle” group. In 2014, driven by ideals of justice, in the ranks of the MLKP, she joined the struggle in Rojava.

She dedicated her life to the liberation of oppressed peoples and was the first “western” woman to fall while fighting in Rojava. She was known for her courage, humanity, and fighting spirit.

She was commemorated at her grave in the Meiderich district of Duisburg. The tribute was attended by nearly 100 people, including members of the Marxist-Leninist Communist Party (MLKP), the Communist Youth Organization (KGÖ), Ivana’s Friends Initiative, the Confederation of Workers from Turkey in Europe (ATİK), the Confederation of Workers from Turkey in Germany (AGİF), the Democratic Kurdish Community Center (DDKTM), and the German Communist.

Following a minute’s silence in honor of the revolutionary martyrs, speakers from MLKP and KGÖ recalled that Ivana Hoffmann served as a bridge of solidarity from Africa to Europe. The speakers said: “With every step we take in the footsteps of our martyrs, we advance in the struggle for revolution and freedom.”

A march was held after the speeches and ended at the AGİF association where a reading event took place. During the march, participants chanted slogans such as “From Duisburg to Rojava – Ivana Lives in Our Struggle!”, “Şehîd Namirin” (Martyrs Are Immortal), and “Kurdistan Will Be the Grave of Fascism.”

A representative of DDKTM said: “Avaşîn Tekoşîn Güneş (Ivana Hoffmann) was born on 1 September 1995, in Emmerich. Her mother was German, and her father was Togolese. She became politically active at the age of 14. In 2011, she first visited the AGİF association in Duisburg-Meiderich, where she was introduced to the ‘Young Struggle’ group.

She participated in actions for the freedom of political prisoners and, in 2012, supported the hunger strike organized for PKK prisoners. She later joined the KGÖ, the youth organization of MLKP. In the spring of 2014, Ivana traveled to Rojava. In a statement by the MLKP, it was said: ‘She was a seeker of freedom. Our comrade Avaşîn believed that the Rojava Revolution could serve as an example for the region and, for that reason, it had to survive. Defending the revolution meant defending the future.”

Ivana remains a symbol of hope and dedication, inspiring those who fight for a better world. On this occasion, we share her letter written before departing, a message that reflects her strength and passion for the revolution.

Last letter from Ivana Hoffmann dedicated to her comrades, before she went to Rojava.

Comrades, Party.

I can’t distinguish the most beautiful colors anymore, I dont feel the wind of the city on my skin anymore, the singing of the birds sounds more like a call for freedom. I have made a descision, days and nights I lived with these thoughts in my head and today is the day to make this step with all my will, which is strong just as the flow of the river Dîcle-Firat. I want to be a part of the Revolution in Rojava, I want to evolve, In this six months I want to get to know the fight, which unites all the opressed people and of course the Rojava Revolution, which I will defend with my life. I know what I am going for and how important this fight is. I know that there will be difficulties, I will notice, what capitalistic features I have in me but I will fight these.

I will experience what it feels like to have a weapon in my hand and to fight for the Rojava Revolution, against Imperialism. I will experience life in a different way, more intensive and organized. Maybe I will get to my limits and fall back but I will never give up fighting spirit and I will go on. Nothing holds me here. I cant’t look passively at how my sisters, brothers, friends, mothers, fathers, comarades are fighting for independence of Capitalism. I will represent the Internationalism of the Party and be a part of the armed and organized movement. When I will come back, I will infect my comarades, my surroundings with the fighting spirit and the willpower, I will be like the beautiful songs and pull everyone in my spell. I will be a guerilla full of charity and hope.

Let’s Strengthen the Struggle for the National and Democratic Rights of the Kurdish People! — MLKP

For 26 years, Kurdish peoples leader Abdullah Öcalan has been held in special isolation on Imralı Island. He issued a “Call for Peace and a Democratic Society,” declaring his historical responsibility to end the armed struggle and dissolve the armed forces, in order to create conditions that recognize the fundamental democratic rights and freedoms of both the Kurdish and Turkish peoples. He called on the PKK to convene an extraordinary congress to decide on this matter. According to this call, he stated that new practical steps could only be made through political and legal arrangements by the state and that Turkey could not solve its ongoing crisis without democratic changes and transformations.

As the MLKP, we maintain our unwavering position that the Kurdish people’s right to national freedom, equality, and national unity is indispensable, and we declare our support for the national democratic demands raised by the “Call for Peace and a Democratic Society.” We call on the oppressed millions of the Kurdish and Turkish peoples, along with the national communities of Arabs, Circassians, Armenians, Greeks, Bosnians, Pomaks, Assyrians, Chaldeans, Albanians, Roma, Lazs, Georgians, and Azerbaijanis, as well as Muslims, Christians, Jews, Alevites, and Yazidis, to engage in the united struggle for the following demands: the immediate declaration of a ceasefire by the fascist colonialist government of Tayyip Erdoğan, the release of Abdullah Öcalan and all political prisoners, the end of colonial attacks, the end of the occupation of Rojava and Başûr, the constitutional and legal recognition of the Kurdish people’s right to national existence and the right to education in their mother tongue, and the repeal of the fascist colonial Anti-Terror Law.

We invite all revolutionary and consistent antifascist forces of our peoples to take a stand against the chauvinist TKP and other social chauvinists who greeted the demand for ending the armed struggle within the framework of the “Call for Peace and a Democratic Society” with jubilation. They label the fact that all achievements of the Kurdish people in North Kurdistan were attained through boundless sacrifices in the armed struggle, under the leadership of the guerrillas, embodied by tens of thousands of immortals, “terror,” and label the national democratic demands of the Kurdish people as “separatism.”

We strongly emphasize that the view in the “Call for Peace and a Democratic Society,” which states, “There is no path outside of democracy for system searches and implementations. There cannot be. Democratic consensus is the fundamental method,” is incompatible with the reality of polarization between oppressors and the oppressed, the rich and the poor, the rulers and the oppressed peoples in Turkey, Kurdistan, and worldwide. In a world where the ruling class, through their state apparatuses, hold the monopoly on violence, have access to the means of violence, are armed to the teeth, fascistize state apparatuses, and divide the world with blood and fire, it is impossible for the working class, women, oppressed peoples, and workers to achieve their basic demands, gain freedom, and create a just, humane world without armed struggle and revolutionary mass violence.

The MLKP will continue the fight for freedom against the fascist regime, denialist colonialism, the patriarchal system, capitalist exploitation, and imperialism, for the Union of the People’s Republics of Turkey and Kurdistan, for the Democratic and Socialist Federation in the Middle East, and for the war for socialism, using all means and forms of struggle.

Developments in the Middle East: Opportunities, Risks, Challenges, and Tasks: ICOR

Statement issued by the forces and parties participating in the webinar entitled “Developments in the Middle East: Opportunities, Risks, Challenges, and Tasks”, organized by the International Coordination of Revolutionary Parties and Organizations (ICOR) Middle East Region on February 15, 2025, and moderated by Al-Watad Socialist Party.(PPDS Tunisia)

The glorious Al-Aqsa Flood Battle marks a decisive turning point in the Palestinian people’s struggle for liberation and return to their historical land of Palestine. The historic victory achieved by the Palestinian massesthrough their steadfastness, patience, resilience, and sacrificesunder the leadership of the fighting resistance factions, supported by Arab resistance in Lebanon and Yemen and backed by progressive forces worldwide, is now facing a series of challenges aimed at undermining it and preventing it from accumulating its results and impacts on the Arab and international levels.

In this context, the call by the President of the United States to displace the Palestinian people from their homeland is a dangerous escalation.

From our position of national, and international responsibility, we firmly condemn this call, which is fundamentally and substantively contrary to international law, and we emphasize the following:

  1. Forced displacement violates international law: The call for displacement contradicts international law, which clearly affirms the right of occupied peoples to struggle for self-determination on their land. International law considers the forced removal of populations, whether through words or actions, as an inseparable part of the aggression practiced by colonial forces.

  2. U.S. complicity in aggression. The call for displacement by President Trump is a continuation of the U.S.’s historical aggression against the Palestinian people. This aggression was evident during the Al-Aqsa Flood Battle, when the U.S. provided all types of weapons of mass destruction to the Zionist entity to continue its genocidal war against Palestinians. It was further demonstrated by violating international law when the U.S. hosted war criminal Netanyahu, who is wanted for international justice.

  3. A strategy of destruction and depopulation The U.S.-Zionist forces of aggression are seeking to implement this displacement call by: Continuing the war and genocide in Gaza and the West Bank while intensifying the destruction of infrastructure. Deliberately obstructing the reconstruction of Gaza, creating conditions that push Palestinians toward forced migration.

  4. The destruction of Palestinian refugee camps. Beyond their brutal crimes, the Zionist forces are engaging in systematic destruction and forced displacement of Palestinian refugee camps in the West Bank. This is part of a larger conspiracy to liquidate the Palestinian cause and deny the Palestinian people their right to return. The attacks on refugee camps are clear evidence of the joint American-Zionist crime against the Palestinian people.

  5. Targeting UNRWA and Palestinian refugees, The U.S. and its allies have cut funding to the United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) since Trump’s first term, and they have resumed these attacks by: Labeling some UNRWA staff as ten-orists, Shutting down its offices, Halting vital services like education and healthcare. This is a deliberate assault on Palestinian resistance and an effort to support the Zionist entity’s genocidal policies through U.S. imperialist backing.

  6. From words to action: The need for reconstruction. While we appreciate the theoretical condemnations of the

U.S. displacement call, these positions must be translated into concrete action by initiating the reconstruction of the destruction caused by the Zionist aggression.

  1. Holding perpetrators accountable, We call on all actors in international justice to take legal action against any party obstructing reconstruction efforts, as such obstruction amounts to complicity in the aggression.

  2. Strengthening support for Palestinian resistance, We urge: International forces to continue their popular and material support for Palestinian resistance, adapting to the evolving situation on the ground. Arab parties and masses to mobilize their strength and overcome the passivity that has characterized previous phases.

We are ready to protect ourselves! “As the Martyr Metin Dîcle Battalion, we announce our establishment. We stand behind our QSD, YPG & YPJ. We condemn the attacks of the occupying Turkish state.

Resilience and Mobilization in Kobanê: MLKP

Today, Kobanê‘s people, united in solidarity, managed to meet almost all their basic needs thanks to collective efforts. The common goal? To respond to the call of mobilization with a spirit of unity. Everyone tries to join.

On November 27, the fascist HTŞ, trained and armed by the Turkish colonial state and imperialist powers, launched a military campaign. Their initial attacks against the Baath regime quickly escalated. The ultimate target? The people of Şehba and Til Rifat.

After the invasion of Afrin, Erdoğan’s fascist chief regime organized armed groups to capture these areas, pushing the already displaced into even more dangerous situations. But the people resisted—both the QSD and fighters from Afrin stopped the genocidal attacks.

With agreements in place, a humanitarian corridor was opened, and for the second time in 6 years, people from Şehba and Til Rifat had to flee, seeking refuge in the safer zones of Rojava-North and East Syria. The collective spirit of the people was stronger than ever.

As soon as the urgency of the situation became clear, the people mobilized. The spirit of solidarity meant they didn’t just watch, they acted.

For the military forces of the revolutionary communists in Rojava, this was a moment of real commitment. Their first step? Gathering accurate information from revolutionary institutions and organizing visits to assess the situation.

At the same time, the Autonomous Administration’s call for mobilization resulted in the formation of various groups. Teams of 3 to 5, primarily from JKŞ and CKŞ, went door-to-door in Kobanê, collecting essentials: blankets, clothes, food, and anything that could be shared.

The effort expanded to neighboring areas, and soon, goods were being delivered to TKŞ, JKŞ, CKŞ institutions, and the humanitarian tents set up by the Autonomous Administration. People shared whatever they could—cars, property, and resources—without hesitation.

But solidarity alone wasn’t enough. It was needed to speak out politically, to make the resistance clear. On the second day of mobilization, in addition to gathering aid, they organized a press conference to call attention to the ongoing occupation.

As people fled from the frontlines of the ongoing attacks, aid reached them, while local groups made sure those displaced were not forgotten. Yet, the fascist regime’s gangs also used the chaos to target areas like Minbic.

In this context, JKŞ and CKŞ units re-entered the training phase. They had to prepare. Ammunition counts were made. Patrols and security measures were strengthened. The duty was clear: defend the revolution, defend the people.

As the struggle intensified, military operations in areas like Tişrîn Dam and Qereqozax Bridge unfolded. Despite initial setbacks, revolutionary forces quickly reorganized, and armed resistance mounted.

Throughout this time, even as the revolutionaries organized and fought, the community remained strong. They had each other’s backs. Some stood guard, others went to the front lines. Every day was filled with loss, as 26 fighters fell in battle.

Despite the tragedy, the people of Kobanê did not falter. Together, with the Martyrs’ Families Organization, ceremonies were held. People from all walks of life walked to the martyrs’ graves to pay their respects. The spirit of resistance was embodied in these acts.

Life in Kobanê became harder as electricity and water were cut off, and fuel became scarce. But the people’s solidarity ensured no one was left behind. Everyone pitched in, offering what they could for the collective good.

As communists from Rojava, we stood firm, defending both our land and our revolutionary institutions. We worked tirelessly, like ants, driven by the slogan: Solidarity is the tenderness of the oppressed.

Once again, the city of Kobanê and its people left their mark on history. In the face of occupation, in the face of hardship, we responded with unwavering unity. The collective spirit of resistance continues.

Shoulder to Shoulder With the Rojava Revolution — MLKP

Statement Yıl: 2024 No: 11
MLK
Shoulder to shoulder with the Rojava Revolution and the revolutionary-democratic forces of the Syrian Arab people, let’s take to the streets, squares, and trenches of war!

Imperialism and the regional centers of counterrevolution have accelerated the overthrow of the regime of Bashar al-Assad and the takeover by political Islamist organizations, largely consisting of fascists, in a temporary and conflict-ridden overlapping alliance. The USA, the “Global Coalition to Defeat ISIS” and Russia, which kept their air forces and advanced technologies for various types of ground weapons under wraps, have provided the necessary support to the coalition known as HTS, which is the enemy of the peoples, women, and masses which do not belong to political Islam. HTS was able to reach Damascus without obstacles. Turkey has provided the most active support, particularly military assistance. The indirect support of Israel through special methods of warfare is indisputable.

Assad and his state forces, who show no trace of resistance or struggle and present one of the most miserable, despicable examples of capitulation, have created nothing more than a cloak with their demagogy, such as the “patriotism” rhetoric, to hide their own chauvinistic, reactionary, bourgeois, and colonial interests. Today, it is clear to the broad masses that these have nothing to do with the revolutionary, democratic, and anti- imperialist interests of the Syrian Arab people. The new regime is primarily a coalition of HTS, the USA, the UK, and Turkey. This coalition represents various interests of Israel. However, their future is uncertain. They will prepare the ground for new chaos, division, civil war, and imperialist power struggles in Syria and the region.

The Lebanese Hezbollah and the reactionary, political Islamist, regime of Iran will face new challenges arising from the internal and regional politics of the HTS-led state in Syria.

The fascist, colonialist, capitalist Turkish state and the collaborating, chauvinist-fascist interest network called SNA (Syrian National Army) want to seize every opportunity to destroy the revolution in Rojava. All imperialist powers supporting HTS and thus the SNA are directly or indirectly involved in this threat to varying degrees. The people of Rojava and the democratic and revolutionary forces of the Syrian Arab people have no choice but to resist and fight. It would be suicide to be deceived by the lies, illusions, and demagogues of the USA or any other imperialist power and the traps of imperialist bourgeois diplomacy. A glance at Afrin and Serêkaniyê is enough to recognize this.

The situation that Assad has found himself in is also instructive enough.

The democratic rights and revolutionary achievements of the Syrian Arab people, especially the Alawite Arabs, the Assyrian, Chaldean, and Armenian Christian communities, the Yazidis, and all women of Syria and Rojava, are also in great danger. Anyone who wants to see the specific future in Syria and Rojava under the leadership of HTS, which is drenched in blood, massacres, torture, rape, and human trafficking in the ranks of ISIS and shows no fundamental change in mentality, as well as under the rapacious, marauding, and collaborating SNA with the Turkish Republic, which represents the most treacherous part of the Arab people, should take a look at the practice of Taliban rule in Afghanistan.

The democratic, revolutionary, and socialist forces of Kurdistan, Iraq, Egypt, Jordan, Iran, Tunisia, and the Arab states of the region, as well as the progressive, antifascist, revolutionary, socialist workers, women, youth, intellectuals, artists, and scientists of Europe, the USA, and the whole world, are called upon to unite with the Rojava Revolution and to stand shoulder to shoulder with the progressive, antifascist, revolutionary, and communist forces in Syria against the coalition of HTS, the USA, the UK, and Turkey, and against the fascist, colonialist henchmen of the Turkish bourgeois state, who form a racist, fascist, political Islamist gang under the name of SNA. It is necessary to provide all support and exert pressure on the reactionary fascist govemments.

Let’s take to the streets, occupy squares, universities, and workers’ districts. Let us demonstrate in front of imperialist state institutions and international imperialist organizations. Let us defend the Rojava Revolution and the revolutionary democratic achievements of the Syrian Arab people by all means and in every form. Let us defend the revolutionary and democratic demands of the women of the people of Rojava and Syria. Let’s exhaust all possibilities to reach the trenches of war. We must, with all our strength, build the revolutionary and socialist alterative in the region against the new reactionary, fascist, imperialist, and colonialist domination.

Let us confront the imperialists and their collaborators who are creating new disasters in the Middle East, imposing new chains of slavery on the peoples, spreading despair and frustration, creating the most favorable conditions for exploitation and plunder, and trying to create regimes in line with the interests of Israel, with the resistance and struggle of the working class, women, youth, the poor, and the working people. Let us strengthen the united struggle of the peoples.
Let us fight for freedom and socialism.

MLKP / KKÖ; “We Are in the Fields on November 25 Against Male and State Violence, Colonial and Zionist Wars and Occupations!”

On November 25, the International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women, we join our hearts with millions of women around the world who are taking to the streets against male domination, male violence, male dominated capitalist order, male dominated crimes of fascist, colonialist regimes, and we call out our rebellion, male dominated order and our determination to fight! This year, we commemorate the Mirabel sisters with love and respect and direct our great anger at male domination and fascism. In the name of the women who inspired the great women’s struggles, from Jina Amini in Iran to Romina Tejerina in Argentina, who were murdered by male domination and driven to suicide, we raise the women’s freedom and fight for equality against complicity. In Baku, Rojava and all of Kurdistan, in Palestine, in Lebanon, in Lebanon, we salute their resistance to colonialism and war. This year’s November 25 actions are taking place in the context of the rise of war and occupation attacks in the region, the policies of the imperialists and the reactionary, colonialist, fascist states of the region to enslave the peoples of the Middle East, violence against women, massacres and policies of enslavement. That is why thousands of women are massacred in Palestine and in Lebanon where thousands of women are being held captive, sexually tortured and raped. That’s why women in Iran who fight to the death against the regime face kidnapping, beheading, torture, sexual torture and execution. That is why the colonialist fascist chief Tayyip Erdoğan is aware that the regime’s goal is to seize women’s won rights, limit and crush women’s freedom struggle, stabilize male domination on a political Islamist basis, and surround women’s action, women’s body and women’s labor with all means. In Turkey and Baku, the gender antagonism has become so sharp, the struggle against male domination has become so fierce that dozens of forms of violence against women have been measured, most notably massacres and murders. The fascist chieftain regime’s policies of extracting women’s gains and impunity for male violence have resulted in violence on the rise. In the last year alone, more than 400 women were murdered by male violence. The filthy, corrupt, dehumanized male domination of male sexuality, male power, extends its dirty hands to children, abuses, rapes and massacres. Colonial fascism elevates heterosexual aggression in the context of sexist attacks, seeks to crush the LGBTI+ movement and destroy the openly identifiable LGBTI+ existence in society, for which it absolves all forms of violence and massacre with impunity.

Revolutionary women prisoners, female political leaders of the united struggle are being held hostage in dungeons, cochairmanship gains are being snatched in coups. Female selfdefense prisoners are being held in prison for decades, while the release of female killers and perpetrators of violence against women results in the murder of women in dozens of cases. One leg of stabilizing male domination is indirect state violence, the other leg is the promotion of male violence through policies of impunity. On the one hand, police, military, judicial bureaucracy attack women’s organizations, leading women, women’s actions, massacres, arrests and detentions. On one hand, harassment against women, rape, torture, murder, hate violence against LGBTI+ and male abuse and sexual assaults against children are exonerated with impunity. We will not succumb to the attacks of the colonialist fascist regime, we will defend women’s earned rights, their positions against attacks. We will increase the united resistance of women against imperialist, colonial wars, occupations and fascism. On November 25, we will be the voice of Iqbal, Ayşenur, Rojbin, the dozens of women who have been murdered this year. We will stand against the violence of men and the state with the organized violence of women, and we will increase organized struggle and organized self-defense. We will not stop embracing women who practice self-defense and responding to male violence with the legitimate violence of women. We will not hesitate to become a subject in social life and political struggle, to be the subject of workers’ and laborers’ resistance against capital, fascism and colonialism, Kurdistan’s struggle for freedom and equality, and to organize in anti-fascist organizations. From Istanbul to Amed, from Kobane to Hesake, from the Middle East to Europe, we will take to the streets with rallies, de facto legitimate protests and night marches, and we will hold the fascist chieftaincy regime and male domination to account for its policies of violence and impunity. We Will Increase Organized Self-Defense Against Male Violence! We Will Expand the United Struggle of Women Against Fascism and Colonialism!

Long live the Women’s Revolution!

Long live socialism! November 22, 2024 MLKP / KKÖ Women’s Leadership

You will not be able to destroy the resistance, and you will not escape accountability for your crimes! Hassan Nasrallah’s memory will live on in the struggle for a free and united Middle East of the peoples!

The racist colonialist state of Israel has doubled down its terror after the 8-hour speech of Hezbollah’s Secretary-General Hassan Nasrallah, who had been preventing the continuation of genocide in Palestine, as well as some Hezbollah cadres whose names have not been disclosed. The USA, the bloody enemy of the peoples of the world, has declared its joy over the massacre and announced its complicity in the crime. The EU states, which fill their days with demagogery against violence and civilian deaths, are filling the banks with their shameless support for Israel’s genocide in Palestine and its massacres in Lebanon through NATO.

The Arab rulers, who are the apparatus of fascism and liberalism from imperialist oppression, have been quick to try to issue a statement saying that those who challenge Israel and the USA will end up like this, instead of standing with the oppressed. These attacks on Lebanon are a reflection of a negative approach of coping with crisis, of genocidal functions, particularly in terms of commercial relations in the European imperialist tradition. Therefore, its words are nothing but deception and what matters is the flower of resistance. Together, Israel, the USA, and the NATO-affiliated EU states are laying the groundwork for a regional reactionary (imperialist and genocidal) war.

The massacres, which go along with the united resistance of the peoples of the Middle East! To this end, it has become an urgent task to establish a united front of all revolutionary, anti-colonial, anti-fascist, anti-imperialist, anti-Zionist, and anti-U.S political parties and organizations all over the world! The brutal colonial war and massacres that Israel continues with the support and protection of the USA and NATO will unite, more working class peoples, and workers will raise the banner of honor and freedom, particularly in Lebanon, Syria, Iraq, Egypt, Jordan, and Tunisia. We call on the peoples of Kurdistan and Turkey to take the streets, side by side with the peoples of Palestine and Lebanon, against genocidal colonialism! Resistance increases against the genocide! We urge the peoples of Iraq, Rojhelat and Balochistan to protest against the Israeli genocide and assassination politics, without bowing to the prohibition of the Iranian state, which shows only cowardice.

We call on the peoples of Europe not to become accomplices in these inhuman, racist, fascist, and genocidal crimes; to enhance the best traditions created by the courageous youth, women, workers, intellectuals, and artists of Europe in their struggle against Hitlerian fascism, mobilizing millions to occupy the squares.

Let us not forget that today, the USA and the NATO member states of the EU, which support Israel and drown Palestine and Lebanon in blood, are also preparing to provide the same support to the fascist genocidal Turkish state to destroy guerrilla resistance! The same states are also preparing a large-scale genocidal colonial war against the Kurdish people, the Rojava revolution, and the PKK. Let us not forget that without being satisfied against the genocide and massacres of the racist colonialist Israeli Zionism in Palestine and Lebanon, the massacre and genocide plans against Kurdistan cannot be left in cowardice, and the complicity of the US and NATO with the colonialist Turkish state cannot be forgotten!

Hassan Nasrallah and the martyrs of the Lebanese resistance will not be forgotten, and their memory will live on in the fight for freedom!

Racist colonialist Zionism will be defeated, the peoples of the region will win!

Greek translation of the MLKP statement by comrade Dimitris Chatzivasileiadis

Μήνυμα του MLKP, Μαρξιστικού – Λενινιστικού Κομμουνιστικού κόμματος ( Τουρκία – Μ. Ανατολή), για την δολοφονία του Γενικού Γραμματέα της Λιβανέζικης Χεσμπολλά.

Η μνήμη του Χασάν Νασραλλά θα ζει στον αγώνα για μια ελεύθερη και ενωμένη Μ. Ανατολή

Δεν θα καταφέρετε να διαλύσετε την αντίσταση και δεν θα διαφύγετε από τον καταλογισμό των εγκλημάτων σας! Η μνήμη του Χασάν Νασραλλά θα ζει στον αγώνα για μια ελεύθερη και ενωμένη Μ. Ανατολή των λαών.

Οι ΗΠΑ, ο αιμοσταγής εχθρός των λαών του κόσμου, δήλωσαν την χαρά τους για τη σφαγή και ανακοίνωσαν τη συνένοχή τους στο έγκλημα. Τα κράτη της Ε.Ε, που πλειοδοτούν στην καθημερινή δημαγωγία ενάντια στη βία και τους θανάτους πολιτών, γεμίζουν τις τράπεζές τους με τη ξεδιάντροπη υποστήριξή τους στην γενοκτονία της Παλαιστίνης από το Ισραήλ και στις σφαγές που διεξάγει στο Λίβανο μέσω του ΝΑΤΟ. Οι Άραβες ηγεμόνες που είναι το επιχειρησιακό εργαλείο του φασισμού και του φιλελευθερισμού για την ιμπεριαλιστική καταπίεση, αντί να σταθούν με τους καταπιεσμένους, έσπευσαν να προσπαθήσουν να δημοσιεύσουν μια δήλωση που έλεγε ότι εκείνοι που αντιμάχονται το Ισραήλ και τις ΗΠΑ θα καταλήξουν έτσι.

Αυτές οι επιθέσεις στο Λίβανο αποτελούν ένα αντανακλαστικό αρνητικής προσέγγισης στην εμπλοκή με την κρίση, των γενοκτονικών λειτουργειών της ευρωπαϊκής ιμπεριαλιστικής παράδοσης και ειδικά με όρους εμπορικών σχέσεων. Οπότε, τα λόγια τους δεν είναι τίποτα παρά εξαπάτηση και αυτό που τους καίει είναι το άνθος της αντίστασης. Από κοινού το Ισραήλ, οι ΗΠΑ και τα προσδεδεμένα στο ΝΑΤΟ κράτη της Ε.Ε στρώνουν το έδαφος για έναν περιφερειακό αντιδραστικό (ιμπεριαλιστικό και γενοκτονικό) πόλεμο.

Οι σφαγές εκτείνονται όσο προχωράει η ενωμένη αντίσταση της Μ. Ανατολής! Σε αυτό το αποκορύφωμα, έχει γίνει επείγον καθήκον η εγκατάσταση ενός ενωμένου μετώπου όλων των επαναστατικών, αντιαποικιακών, αντιφασιστικών, αντιμπεριαλιστικών, αντισιωνιστικών και αντιαμερικάνικων πολιτικών κομμάτων και οργανώσεων σε όλον τον κόσμο! Ο βάναυσος αποικιακός πόλεμος και οι σφαγές που συνεχίζει το Ισραήλ με την υποστήριξη και την προστασία των ΗΠΑ και του ΝΑΤΟ, θα ενώσουν περισσότερους ανθρώπους της εργατικής τάξης και οι εργάτες/τριες θα υψώσουν το λάβαρο της τιμής και της ελευθερίας, ιδιαίτερα στον Λίβανο, την Συρία, το Ιράκ, την Αίγυπτο, την Ιορδανία και την Τυνησία. Καλούμε τους λαούς του Κουρδιστάν και της Τουρκίας να καταλάβουν τους δρόμους δίπλα – δίπλα με τους λαούς της Παλαιστίνης και του Λιβάνου, ενάντια στη γενοκτονική αποικιοκρατία! Η αντίσταση αυξάνεται ενάντια στη γενοκτονία! Προτρέπουμε τους λαούς του Ιράκ, της Poζιλάτ {ανατολικό Κουρδιστάν, στο Ιράν} και του Μπαλουχιστάν να διαδηλώσουν ενάντια στην ισραηλινή γενοκτονία και τις δολοφονικές πολιτικές, χωρίς να υποκύψουν στην απαγόρευση του ιρανικού κράτους, που δείχνει μόνο δειλία.

Καλούμε τους λαούς της Ευρώπης να μην γίνουν συνεργοί σε αυτά τα απάνθρωπα ρατσιστικά, φασιστικά και γενοκτονικά εγκλήματα, να δυναμώσουν τις καλύτερες παραδόσεις που έχουν δημιουργηθεί από την θαρραλέα νεολαία, τις γυναίκες, τους εργάτες, τους διανοούμενους και τους καλλιτέχνες της Ευρώπης στον αγώνα τους ενάντια στον χιτλερικό φασισμό, κινητοποιώντας εκατομμύρια για να καταλάβουν τις πλατείες.

Ας μην ξεχνάμε ότι σήμερα οι ΗΠΑ και τα κράτη της Ε.Ε που είναι μέλη του ΝΑΤΟ που στηρίζουν το Ισραήλ και πνίγουν την Παλαιστίνη και το Λίβανο στο αίμα, προετοιμάζονται για να παράσχουν την ίδια στήριξη στο φασιστικό γενοκτονικό τούρκικο κράτος ώστε να καταστρέψουν την αντάρτικη αντίσταση! Τα ίδια κράτη προετοιμάζουν έναν μεγάλης κλίμακας γενοκτονικό αποικιακό πόλεμο ενάντια στον κουρδικό λαό, στην επανάσταση της Ροζάβα και στο PKK. Χωρίς να έχουμε ολοκληρώσει τον αγώνα ενάντια στην γενοκτονία και τις σφαγές από τον ρατσιστικό αποικιοκρατικό ισραηλινό σιωνισμό στην Παλαιστίνη και τον Λίβανο, ας μην ξεχνάμε ότι τα σχέδια σφαγής και γενοκτονίας εναντίον του Κουρδιστάν δεν γίνεται να αφεθούν στη δειλία και ούτε γίνεται να ξεχαστεί η συνεργία των ΗΠΑ και του ΝΑΤΟ με το αποικιοκρατικό τούρκικο κράτος!

Ο Χασάν Νασραλλά και οι μάρτυρες της Λιβανέζικης αντίστασης δεν θα ξεχαστούν και η μνήμη τους θα ζει στον αγώνα για ελευθερία!

Ο ρατσιστικός αποικιοκρατικός σιωνισμός θα ηττηθεί, οι λαοί της περιοχής θα νικήσουν!

You will not be able to destroy the resistance, and you will not escape accountability for your crimes! Hassan Nasrallah’s memory will live on in the struggle for a free and united Middle East of the peoples!

The racist colonialist state of Israel has doubled down its terror after the 8-hour speech of Hezbollah’s Secretary-General Hassan Nasrallah, who had been preventing the continuation of genocide in Palestine, as well as some Hezbollah cadres whose names have not been disclosed. The USA, the bloody enemy of the peoples of the world, has declared its joy over the massacre and announced its complicity in the crime. The EU states, which fill their days with demagogery against violence and civilian deaths, are filling the banks with their shameless support for Israel’s genocide in Palestine and its massacres in Lebanon through NATO.

The Arab rulers, who are the apparatus of fascism and liberalism from imperialist oppression, have been quick to try to issue a statement saying that those who challenge Israel and the USA will end up like this, instead of standing with the oppressed. These attacks on Lebanon are a reflection of a negative approach of coping with crisis, of genocidal functions, particularly in terms of commercial relations in the European imperialist tradition. Therefore, its words are nothing but deception and what matters is the flower of resistance. Together, Israel, the USA, and the NATO-affiliated EU states are laying the groundwork for a regional reactionary (imperialist and genocidal) war.

The massacres, which go along with the united resistance of the peoples of the Middle East! To this end, it has become an urgent task to establish a united front of all revolutionary, anti-colonial, anti-fascist, anti-imperialist, anti-Zionist, and anti-U.S political parties and organizations all over the world! The brutal colonial war and massacres that Israel continues with the support and protection of the USA and NATO will unite, more working class peoples, and workers will raise the banner of honor and freedom, particularly in Lebanon, Syria, Iraq, Egypt, Jordan, and Tunisia. We call on the peoples of Kurdistan and Turkey to take the streets, side by side with the peoples of Palestine and Lebanon, against genocidal colonialism! Resistance increases against the genocide! We urge the peoples of Iraq, Rojhelat and Balochistan to protest against the Israeli genocide and assassination politics, without bowing to the prohibition of the Iranian state, which shows only cowardice.

We call on the peoples of Europe not to become accomplices in these inhuman, racist, fascist, and genocidal crimes; to enhance the best traditions created by the courageous youth, women, workers, intellectuals, and artists of Europe in their struggle against Hitlerian fascism, mobilizing millions to occupy the squares.

Let us not forget that today, the USA and the NATO member states of the EU, which support Israel and drown Palestine and Lebanon in blood, are also preparing to provide the same support to the fascist genocidal Turkish state to destroy guerrilla resistance! The same states are also preparing a large-scale genocidal colonial war against the Kurdish people, the Rojava revolution, and the PKK. Let us not forget that without being satisfied against the genocide and massacres of the racist colonialist Israeli Zionism in Palestine and Lebanon, the massacre and genocide plans against Kurdistan cannot be left in cowardice, and the complicity of the US and NATO with the colonialist Turkish state cannot be forgotten!

Hassan Nasrallah and the martyrs of the Lebanese resistance will not be forgotten, and their memory will live on in the fight for freedom!

Racist colonialist Zionism will be defeated, the peoples of the region will win!

The Marxist-Leninist Communist Party Kurdistan (MLKP) Kurdistan released a statement vowing to resist the Turkish occupation campaign in southern Kurdistan (northern Iraq).

“The colonialist fascist Turkish bourgeois state, with the support of the KDP and the Iraqi government, is expanding its occupation attack on the territory of South Kurdistan. Our mountains are bombed, our villages are evacuated, our people are forcibly displaced. A genocidal attack is being carried out with chemical gases and tactical nuclear bombs,” said the statement on Thursday.

MLKP Kurdistan pointed out that the colonialist Turkish state’s invasion attacks are based on the ‘centuries-old Ottoman dream’ and said: “The Turkish state is heading towards annexing the lands of South Kurdistan up to Mosul and Kirkuk. NATO states, which have recently convened and openly declared their intention to bring the world to the brink of the third world war, support the genocide policy and occupation of the Turkish state.”

MLKP Kurdistan stated that the Turkish state also carried ISIS gangs to South Kurdistan and that the KDP-Barzani family ‘deepened in the collaborator treacherous line’.

“The KDP has become desirous of becoming a colonial governor. If the Turkish state gains full sovereignty in South Kurdistan, they will not even have as much authority as the trustee appointed to Hakkari Municipality, let alone maintain their bourgeois power,” MLKP said.

Emphasising the resistance of the guerrillas against the occupation, MLKP Kurdistan celebrated the 19 July Rojava revolution on its twelfth anniversary and said: “Our freedom guerrillas will take strength from the strong popular actions in North Kurdistan, Rojava, Turkey and European metropolises against occupation and colonialism and will further increase their resistance.”

The statement concluded: “We call on all our people in Turkey, Iraq and Syria, especially our labouring peoples from Turkish and Arab sovereign nations, to raise the struggle against these genocidal, occupying and colonialist attacks. Unless colonised Kurdistan is free, no people will be free. We call on all progressive, revolutionary parties and organisations, democratic mass organisations and honourable intellectuals in the four parts of Kurdistan and the region to stand up against this war and occupation.”

Seeing that the freedom struggle of the Kurdish people against colonialism will merge with the freedom struggle against fascism on the Turkish front and lead to an unstoppable revolution, the fascist chieftaincy regime aims to bloodily destroy the channels of unification of the revolutionary movement of Turkey and Kurdistan, its progressive revolutionary accumulation.

With this bloody attack and fascist state terror, which it has been continuing uninterruptedly for 9 years, it has tended to liquidate revolutionary communist parties and organizations, especially the Kurdish Freedom Movement, and to neutralize and surrender them under conditions where it could not, to destroy revolutionary parties and organizations, and to break the ties between the pioneers and the masses.

It is trying to destroy the aspiration and struggle of the working class and laborers, women and youth, Alevis and different faith communities, anti-fascist forces, and the oppressed for a free, equal and livable world, especially the freedom demands and gains of the Kurdish people, thus keeping the colonial fascist order of the rulers alive and perpetuating the political Islamist fascist regime.

In this respect, we can say that the revolutionary movement in Turkey and Kurdistan is once again passing through a historical threshold. This process is also a process in which revolutionary parties and organizations are tested in their revolutionary militants. Turkey and the Kurdistan revolutionary movement went through similar historical processes during the periods of March 12, 1971 and the September 12, 1980 Military Fascist Coup. The 71 revolutionary uprising against the fascism of March 12 was the name of a strong response and will. The revolutionary uprising of 71 is at the same time a sense of power, audacity, determination and dedication. It has become the name of reconciliation with class enemies, not surrender, but of fighting resolutely.

Your worldview needs to be in line with your life, and your philosophy of life needs to be in line with your political practice. In this respect, the revolutionary uprising and resistance of 71 is a unity of word and deed. It is the orientation to arms, the trench comradeship to overthrow the colonialist fascist state. What makes the leaders of the71 revolutionary breakthrough unwavering in the face of death is their eternal belief in the scientificity of the struggle they fought for, in other words, their ideology, and their determination to fulfill the requirements of this belief.

Today, the roots of the revolutionary communist parties and organizations that resist and fight against the colonial fascist oppression in Turkey and Kurdistan as the vanguard forces of the workers and toilers, the oppressed and our peoples, as well as our United Movement Movement, are based on the revolutionary rupture and breakthrough of71. The conviction and determination of the revolutionary leaders of the 71 revolutionary uprisings and resistance still guide our United Revolutionary breakthrough today.

On the 51st anniversary of his immortality, the leader of the 71 revolutionary uprisings, the Mahirs, the Seas, the Sinans, the founder and leader of the TKP ML, who put this into practice in the lands of Turkey and Kurdistan, who became immortal without giving a secret in torture, the honorary member of our party, one of the revolutionary leaders of our United Revolution movement, and the leaders of the 71 revolutionary uprisings, Mahirs, Denizs, Sinans, I would like to express once again that we commemorate them with gratitude and devotion, and that we bow respectfully to their memories.

The day is the day to embrace the faith and determination of our revolutionary leaders and the spirit of sacrifice and to frustrate all the attacks of the colonialist fascist Turkish state and AKP-MHP fascism.

The day is the day to plant the red flag of revolution and socialism, which our comrade İbrahim Kaypakkaya and our revolutionary leaders carried with great honor and handed over to us, on the bastions of colonialist fascism.

The day is a day to march with revolutionary determination against liquidationism, opportunism, reformism, and legal revolutionism confined to the boundaries of the fascist order.

Comrade İbrahim Kaypakkaya is immortal!

In the year of immortality, glory be to the revolutionary steel will that does not give a secret!

The martyrs of May are immortal!

Long live the revolution and socialism!

Long live the United Revolution of Turkey and Kurdistan

He greets you all with the revolutionary sentiments of trench comradeship. I wish you success in your revolutionary struggle. We will definitely win.

Brothers!

The fascist junta of terror, demagoguery and war, which reigns in the thousand-room palace with an official daily cost of 43 million 600 thousand liras, is preparing new and more comprehensive attacks against workers, women, youth, pensioners, the poor, the Kurdish people, the peoples of the region and the natural environment.

Tayyip Erdogans fascist political Islamist chieftaincy regime has assured the IMF, the World Bank and the international capital monopolies that it will make the lives of workers, toilers and the poor even more unbearable, and intensify the exploitation of surplus value, price hikes and tax robbery. The cancellation of the increase in the minimum wage, which was supposed to be made in June, is the first step towards this. In the coming months, attacks are in the pipeline that will make the living and working conditions of workers and the poor even more unbearable under the name offiscal discipline,fighting inflationandausterity.

In the halls of the palace where anti-people plans are being prepared, new attacks on womens life, womens rights and demands, especially thefamily lawand theright to alimony, have been decided. The fascist chieftaincy regime is waiting for an opportunity to launch this male-dominated state attack on women.

The fascist colonialist dictatorship of Tayyip Erdoğan has completed its preparations to turn Kurdistan into a bloodbath, spread the occupation areas and carry out genocidal massacres during the summer period. Poverty is sweeping the country. Young students are taking their lives in universities and dormitories due to economic difficulties and housing problems. Retired mine workers die in the mines they enter in their old age to alleviate their livelihoods. Poverty drowns workershomes in unrest, tension and suffering. Unemployment makes people unable to breathe. Debt makes millions of people desperate.

The most essential living needs of the workers are made unaffordable with the new price hikes. Rents, gas and electricity costs are disrupting the sleep of the poor. The cost of transportation in the city, even feeding a meal on the street, and cigar money leave millions of working people, especially young people, in the most desperate situations. In the cities where the state has increased its destructiveness and the earthquake has drowned death and grief, a thousand difficulties are bleeding the wounds of our people.

While all this is going on and the pain of unemployment, poverty and high prices is all around, the fascist chief and his accomplices will spend the money on fascist colonial war, bombs, bullets and weapons. Tayyip Erdogan, as Turkeys Hitler and Netanyahu, has been imprisoned in the state borders of Iraq, Syria, Iran and Turkey, deprived of their national democratic rights; moreover, it wants to genocide the Kurdish people, whose population is counted in tens of millions, and to destroy their achievements, for which the Turkish bourgeois state exhibits racism of denying its existence.

Brothers!

Let us not be silent, let us not watch, let us show the power of the working class and our peoples. The 15-16 June, theShut Down the DGMsprotests, the mass sea of May 1, 77 that did not fit in Taksim, the Warning to Fascism demonstrations, the mass wave of workers that surrounded all sides in the autumn of90 and reached its peak with the Zonguldak-Ankara march, the serhildans that swept Northern Kurdistan many times in the90s and 2000s, the Gazi uprising, the Gezi-June uprising, the Kobanê serhildan of October 6-8, and the popular revolt that appeared in Wan against the trustee fascists after the March 31 elections are our sources of inspiration and encouragement.

Brothers!

To shout that we stand shoulder to shoulder with the Palestinian people against the occupation and genocidal attacks of the racist, fascist colonialist Israel,

Lets unite in the squares of May 1 to raise the memory of May 1, 77 and all May Day immortals.

Against the current onslaught of increasing impoverishment, exploitation and robbery,

Against the usurpation of democratic rights, either de facto or by new laws,

Against the attack planned to be launched against women under the name ofFamily LawandRegulation on the Right to Alimony,

Against the persecution of revolutionary and patriotic prisoners, fascist practices, isolation terror and the İmralı torture system based on absolute isolation,

Against the fascist colonial war, which was launched and will gradually expand, starting with the forces of freedom, to genocide the Kurdish nation, to strangle the Rojava revolution, to create grave silence in Kurdistan, to prevent the United Revolution,

For Freedom, Justice, Equality for Women and Peoples, which is the longing and demand of workers, unemployed, women, youth, public workers, the poor, the working peasantry, intellectuals, artists, scientists, Kurdish people, Alevis, national communities, LGBTI+s,

Lets unite in the squares in Turkey and Kurdistan on May 1st! Lets seize Taksim in Istanbul!

In order to organize the United Resistance of the Oppressed in Turkey and Northern Kurdistan, lets establish United Resistance Committees in factories, neighborhoods, schools, trade unions and professional organizations!

The Only Way Is Revolution, Long Live Socialism!
