A Recommendation   For My Kurdish Compatriots Of Occupied Kurdistan In Turkey .

As we are aware  , almost the  leading  important national rights and identity labels  are  : Language , Culture and  Names . For example , French people are speaking in French , have French culture and  mostly give  French names to their children ; and this practice is prevailing all over the globe .

But due to Turkish  government's fascism policy , among many other legitimate rights , three above rights have been  confiscated in north Kurdistan , occupied by Turkey . As it is known all over the globe , they repeat  a ridiculous claim and say " Kurds are mountainous Turks  !!! " , if  this joke  is rational and justified , Turks are mountainous Arabs , too ; because for centuries it was the epicenter of Islamic Ottoman  Caliphate . Or Kurdistan Turkmans are Plain(desert ) Kurds . 

Under approximately this half millennium pressure and despotism by Ottomans and their post modern quasi Kamalist  caliphs , like Erdogan  , Gol  etc  , three above Kurdish national identities have been forbidden or weakened  .

Consequently , using Kurdish Language , Culture  and Names have  sever  restrictions there .

For example ,  despite serious struggle of my Kurdish compatriots there , which is highly appreciated by human community , still some Kurds are not allowed to use Kurdish , Kurdish cultural issues  and give Kurdish names to their children . Language and cultural issues restrictions in Turkey   for Kurds  are so clear and familiar for  most of the people , they do not need to mention any example . But I point out to name of Turkish Kurds !!!!.  For example you can hear many names such as : Demir , Aslan  , Changiz  and thousands of first and family names in Turkish , but rarely you can hear a Kurdish name , such as Roonak  , Khebat  , Rizgar etc or their Kirmanj dialect equivalents if any  .

So , for  this social pathology , I provide   this proposal , which has been already successfully performed in other parts of great Kurdistan and had positive output .

1-   At present situation , everyone teach Kurdish to their children at home.

2-   They preserve Kurdish culture ( ceremonies and behaviors etc ) underground  .

3-   Give Kurdish names to all their children , in a de facto manner .

PS: Kurds are peaceful and friendly people , fond of peaceful coexistence ;  they highly  respect all other nations rights , and have same humanitarian  expectation from all , in particular  their neighbors .
