I’m sorry, but this young woman isn’t just a journalist or an artist. The PKK and Kurdish freedom movement are political separatist factions.
I’m not fan of Erdogan, but it’s simplistic to ascribe good intentions to the separatists. Turkey is housing most of the Syrian refugees at the moment, and while Erdogan is way more conservative and facing eastward instead of westward... like Assad in Syria, he’s having to placate lots of factions of whack jobs. Just because we’ve used Kurds to fight battles for us in Syria and Iraq does not make them the good guys.
You think the whole the prison wouldn’t give me paint and as an artist I would rather die, so I used my menstrual blood and taught the other women to also use their menstrual blood to paint with is an artistic expression of art? -_-
Well, you are simply wrong.
You said: “Turkey is housing most of the Syrian refugees”
It is simply untrue, in fact less than a year ago they evicted 350-400,000 civilians from Efrin on the pretense of fighting terrorists. There was never a single attack on Turkey. Erdogan lies every time he opens his mouth and he used 3,000 ISIS plus some al Qaeda (Nusra) to displace these peaceful Syrian civilians. (Massacred many of them)
She did not expect Turkey to furnish her paint. She was not allowed to have it in the prison.
I don’t know where you are coming from but I know these people. Turkey is the harbor for ISIS, Nusra, Al Qaeda, Muslim Brotherhood and Erdogan is not simply right wing, he is a Dictator in every sense of the word.
Turkey if not checked will again commit Genocide. Oh, yes they did after WWI and to this day have never admitted it. And they will not becase they intend to do it again when given the chance.
I’ve followed this conflict for way over 4 year and know a number of people there very well.
