For years the name of the >MHP (Nationalist Movement Party) has been associated with murders and >provocations. On October 29, in Umraniye/Istanbul's First of May >District, a sympathiser of ours, a 15-year-old named Sukru Saritas, was >shot dead by MHP fascists. >Whenever the authorities wish a massacre of the opposition or a murder, >the slaughter of revolutionaries or the people, that is where you will >find the MHP. When there are murders in the mountains, in the cities by >the police or the torturers of the special teams - the MHP will be >involved. At Susurluk, in the "1,000 operations", the MHP was present. >The MHP is present wherever there is hostility to the people and >collaboration with imperialism. The murder of Sukru shows that the MHP >has never given up its murderous mission as an enemy of the people and >is ready at any moment to actively resume this mission. >Our people in the gecekondus (slum areas of cities, established without >official permission and inhabited mainly by poor people, including many >refugees from the war in Kurdistan) know the MHP well. With our blood, >with our lives, we founded our gecekondus. In Gazi, Armutlu, Nurtepe, >Okmeydani, First of May District...(Note: many gecekondus were >established with the help of revolutionary groups like Devrimci Sol, and >the DHKP-C and some other revolutionary organisations continue to >receive support from many people in such places. As its name suggests, >the First of May District is an area where the left is strong.) The MHP >fascists, together with the police and the mafia, opposed our every act >of resistance. They raked our coffee shops with gunfire and bombarded >our houses. Because of this our people know the murderous face of the >MHP well and the MHP fascists cannot easily move about in such areas, >nor will they be able to. We will resist again, we will give more >martyrs but the fascists will gain no foothold in our districts... In >this regard the people of First of May District have also known the >fascists very well ever since the district was founded. From here, our >Sukrus make their protests, from here anger directed against the >fascists makes itself felt. >Sukru Saritas is one of our Children of Resistance... At 15, our Sukru >was a "child". But his heart was great. His heart was full of anger at >the fascists. He was like all gecekondu children who resisted and grew >up in the shadow of police terror. >While a child he was detained and became acquainted with the torturers. >Because of this he knew resistance and the struggle. Sukru was a >sympathiser of the Front (DHKC). Like Erkan Dilsiz, Sibel Yalcin and Cem >Guler, he learned to be one of our young fighters in the struggle. >Behind the Gazi barricades (March 1995) and in the May Day corteges, one >of the children was Sukru... >Our children desire freedom just as much as the Palestinians who are the >same age as they are. >The MHP fascists are the enemies of the people and servants of >imperialism just like the Israeli soldiers are. >You who are organising campaigns with the slogan "Don't let children >die!", why don't you support the people's anger at those who killed >Sukru? You who say, "In Palestine they are using children as a shield," >and are trying to prove yourselves to imperialism, where are you when >MHP fascists kill our children in the middle of Istanbul? >You will continue to see supporters of the Front, whether they are aged >15 or 70. We say to those who say at every opportunity "We have finished >them off, we have destroyed them," that we will always be present in the >stones which are thrown by our children who have grown up so quickly. We >will always be present in the hatred felt by our 70-year-old mothers and >fathers, because we are the people. >Be like Sukru. We call on all our children, all our youth, to take Sukru >as an example. Show the anger he showed against fascism, be daring and >courageous as he was... >We call on all those who are weary and daunted, look at Sukru and pull >yourselves together. When our 15-year-old children are killed by fascist >bullets, do not remain inactive. >The fascists will not be able to force their way into our gecekondus, we >will demand a reckoning for Sukru! >We give our word to the people of the First of May District and all >labouring people that the bloody-handed fascist killers will not gain a >foothold in our gecekondus. Our justice will call those who killed Sukru >to account, and they will not save themselves from being the targets of >our anger. The stones in the hands of Sukru will be our bullets >demanding a reckoning from the murderers. > >SUKRU SARITAS IS IMMORTAL! > >DEVRIMCI HALK KURTULUS CEPHESI >(REVOLUTIONARY PEOPLE'S LIBERATION FRONT) > > > _______________________________________________________ KOMINFORM P.O.
