[Video] In several French cities, participate in solidarity days. Faced with the bloody
Turkish state conducted, facing the barbarism Daech facing the tyranny of Bashar Assad,
the Kurdish revolutionary left embodies the alternative. It calls for international
solidarity. The libertarian movement meets this! ---- The double suicide bombing in
Ankara, October 10, 2015, the deadliest ever committed on the soil of Turkey, left at
least 97 dead and 507 wounded. ---- It was a meeting of the HDP, the pro-Kurdish party
left that also unites much of the extreme left, feminists, environmentalists, LGBT and
national minorities throughout Turkey. ---- The Government of "new sultan" Erdogan
immediately accused the victims of having themselves provoked the attack, pointing to the
far left as a whole, including the PKK.
Erdogan's party, the AKP, has understood that it would not have an absolute majority in
Parliament in the legislative elections of November 1. He embarked on a headlong rush

SOLIDARITY TO FACE KILLING
OF ERDOGAN and his henchmen!
Tract of the collective solidarity of anarchists Rojava
(which participates AL)
Whereas since their victory Kobanî, people's Defense Units (YPG) strung victories Daech
and solidarity with the revolution in Rojava continues to organize provocations of the
Turkish state led by Erdogan are increasing against the PKK, the HDP, the Turkish radical
left, Kurds and all national minorities.
Since July, when the HDP pro-Kurdish party supported by national minorities and the
Turkish extreme left, got nearly 13% of the vote, thus becoming a weight force in the
country, government provocations multiplied.
The attack in Suruç - where 33 militants (including 3 anarchists) in support Rojava, died
- allowed Erdogan to start a "war against terrorism" which is actually a broad attack
against the forces beat to Rojava.
An alternative for the entire Middle East
Yet the draft multi-ethnic, multi-religious and multicultural which carries HDP is the
only acceptable alternative in this context the face of ultra-religious groups (Daech) or
nationalistic (AKP), facing the dictatorship of Assad, or simply face appetites of Western
powers.
Many bombings - supposedly directed against Daech - have also taken place against PKK
positions, and several towns like Cizre underwent siege but resisted and bends the Turkish
state. This month, coordinated attacks by fascist groups, nationalist or
Islamic-conservative AKP (Erdogan's party) took place throughout the country against the
premises of the HDP and the Kurdish population.
Nearly 2,000 activists arrests were made since July 2015. Faced with these attacks, the
progressive forces and organize their self-defense responses.
The revolution in Rojava, hope
As the critical support we provide to the revolutionaries of Rojava, it is essential for
us to express our solidarity with the Kurdish people in their struggle for emancipation
and resistance against the aggressions of the Turkish army and the reactionary groups,
whether in Turkey or Europe, where demonstrations of support have been attacked by these
same ultra-nationalist groups (eg in Cologne September 20, 2015).
The movement that was formed around the PKK is the only force in the region to fight on
the ground against Daech.
Formerly the PKK was a Stalinist party, but it has in recent years adopted a "democratic
confederalism" program that brings the libertarians.
All these reasons lead us to confirm the support for the revolution in Rojava, the draft
contains the seeds of a genuine social transformation.
Therefore, we demand the French government:
that the PKK is removed from the list of "terrorist" organizations,
to commit to the opening of a humanitarian corridor for Rojava,
truth and justice for murdered three Kurdish activists in Paris on 07/01/2013,
stopping his complicity with the Turkish state in all its forms and we speak against any
Turkish and French military intervention!
