Thank you very much... This is all because one of the coalition partners
in the coalition is a right extremist party who despises the PKK. This

provide an objective, unbiased opinion about the Kurdish issue in Turkey
thru private email.
Our government officials would make very talented fluxus artists,
wouldn't they? You should see them during the grand assembly meetings!!
