The PKK terror going on in the southeast of Turkey today
is actually communist terror in the flesh. Statements by the head of the
separatist organization make this perfectly clear.
For example, in his
message to celebrate the 13th anniversary of the founding of the separatist
organization, its leader said:
"As the best answer to those who say,
'Socialism has collapsed, communism has collapsed' we are saying, 'On the
contrary,

THE MOST POWERFUL, TRUEST AND GREATEST FORM OF COMMUNISM HAS TAKEN
PLACE IN THE PKK.'"
A speech on May 1, 1982, represents one of the many
occasions on which the leader of the separatist organization openly states that
the PKK is a Marxist-Leninist organization:
"No matter what unsuitable
conditions it may live under, IT MUST BE BASED on the objective force of the
working class, and ON MARXISM-LENINISM, its science and guide to action; AND
NOTE THAT THE REASON FOR OUR EXISTENCE IS TOTALLY GROUNDED IN THAT FACT... If
those tribal walls, those feudal fences had not been breached, MARXISM-LENINISM,
THE MODERN AND THE MOST REVOLUTIONARY WAY OF THINKING would never have entered
our heads."
They themselves say that their party is a communist party, and
all the laws of communism are set out and clarified in the party constitution.
They make communist propaganda day and night. (From Mr. Adnan Oktar's interview
on June 16, 2010, on Samsun Aks and TV Kayseri)
Every action, every slogan
and every declaration by the terrorist organization is communist. Striking
statements at the organization's founding conference and on its web site makes
their devotion to Marxism perfectly clear:
"MARXIST-LENINIST THEORY MUST BE
TAKEN TO HEART. Leading cadres must frequently refer to Marxism, they must take
that teaching to heart in order to make the implementation of Marxism their
starting point... WE WILL ADOPT SOCIALISM RATHER AS A GUIDE TO ACTION IN THE
RESOLUTION OF THE POLITICAL PROBLEM. As the representatives of such a teaching,
and the adherents of such a teaching, we shall do our duty by applying it, as
the most important precondition of the teaching, to the question of the
political administration of the country and AS A MEANS OF and guide to BRINGING
DOWN THE EXISTING ADMINISTRATION."
Adnan Oktar: ... PKK terrorism in Turkey
is one of the major communist uprisings in the world today. It is the greatest
communist uprising in the history of the Turkish Republic. It is a
Marxist-Leninist-Stalinist uprising... (From Mr. Adnan Oktar's interview on July
21, 2008, on Amasya TV)
The fact that the organization has a
Marxist-Leninist structure is made clear both in indictments by prosecutors and
in Turkish Intelligence MIT reports and in rulings by the courts. Indeed, the
fact that for many years the organization used the hammer and sickle motif, the
best known symbol of communism, on its flag is sufficient proof of this. The
emblem was then altered by the organization for strategic and tactical
reasons.
Abdullah Öcalan, the leader of the separatist organization, says
that the PKK's ideological foundation is based on Marxism and Leninism in
another statement:
"The PKK has experienced a development in line with the
Marxist-Leninist tradition. It is clear that from then on it will take shape on
the basis of that legacy, which is inseparable in the way that flesh is joined
to bone." (Kurdistan'da Halk Kahramanligi [Popular Heroism in Kurdistan],
Istanbul, March 2004, p. 78)
"LENIN REPRESENTED IT IN THE 1900S, AND I
REPRESENT THE 21ST-CENTURY SOCIALISM, and I am building the new socialism by
fighting real socialism and imperialism." (Ozgur Yasamla Diyaloglar [Dialogues
with Free Life], p. 201)
Apo [Abdullah Öcalan] does what Lenin said. The
communists in the southeast are doing what Lenin said. It is a religion and they
are applying that religion. They are observing the practices of the
Marxist-Leninist religion. (From Mr. Adnan Oktar's interview on July 1, 2011, on
A9 TV and Kaçkar TV; 00:30)
Öcalan, the separatist leader, praises the bloodthirsty
communist leaders who slaughtered millions of people:
"THE HEROES OF THE
PROLETARIAT, MARX AND ENGELS. ITS THEORETICAL AND POLITICAL GENIUS, LENIN, and
ITS PRACTICAL MASTERS, STALIN, HO CHI MINH AND MAO. And many national and
internationalist heroes marching under their leadership. These great heroes who
stir up and organize mankind's consciousness of freedom, and produce the armies
known as people's armies, occupy a truly great place in the history of mankind."
(Kurdistan'da Halk Kahramanligi [Popular Heroism in Kurdistan], p. 87)
