Former flag of the Kurdistan Workers' Party (1978–1995).

This is about all I need to know.

off topic but I absolutely detest Hezbollah and was shocked that:

“[T]he EU has never acknowledged Hezbollah’s so-called “political wing” as a terrorist group, despite its involvement in countless international terrorist acts...”

What a crock.

When I was a visiting professor in Istanbul, I would take a walk every evening after my classes. One day I passed a shopping mall that was ablaze, with lots of fire trucks present. The fire had been set by PKK terrorists. To my surprise, the Turks actually caught the perps and convicted them after a trial. No doubt in my mind the PKK are terrorists.
