Date: March 14, 1999					Declaration: 82



THOSE WHO COMMIT THE MASSACRES AGAINST THE PEOPLE HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH
THE FREEDOM OF THE KURDISH PEOPLE, NOR WITH THE ESSENCE OF REVOLUTION AND
PROGRESS


The actions, aimed against the people without making any difference, never
reached a dimension and never got out of control as they have now, although
we have seen similar ones in recent years. Without making any difference,
without dividing between guilty and not guilty, collaborators, at the side
of the people or the people's enemies, bombs are left behind on squares
which are filled with people, molotov cocktails are thrown, and people
massacred. Overt massacres are being organised. This has nothing to do with
being revolutionary, with progress, the Kurds or rights and liberties. These
methods have historically been the methods of fascist governments and contra
- -guerrilla organisations. With such methods, imperialism and its fascist
collaborators have always tried to destroy the legitimacy of the
revolutionaries when the revolutionary struggle was developing. For the
revolutionaries, the notions of friend and enemy have always been clear.
Whatever the nature of an organisation, acting with nationalist or social
demands, they have to determine clearly who is the enemy and who the friend.
Massacring an oppressed people in the name of another, and planning and
carrying out actions for this goal, clearly means serving the enemy. When it
is claimed that the actions which have been carried out in the past by the
contra-guerrilla itself have been carried out in the name of the oppressed
Kurdish people, this means betrayal of the Kurdish people. It must be
doubted that the oligarchy really tries to prevent such acts. Quite on the
contrary, it is as if they are saying: "Let them do what they want. Let the
people see what they think of justice, let the people see what they will do
when they are in power". For fascism, these actions large create the
conditions for its contra-revolutionary propaganda and all kinds of
provocations. The mass basis for fascism is being enlarged by portraying all
revolutionaries as sick people who massacre the people, not aware of what
they are doing. While the conditions for revolutionary work among the people
are being mangled, they want to incite the people against the
revolutionaries. Whatever the case, such actions achieve the same as the
provocations by the contra-guerrilla. The so-called NATIONALIST KURDISH
REVENGE FORCE have claimed responsibility for these actions. Nothing has
been known about such an organisation. Its sudden appearance is rather
doubtful. If such an organisation really does exist, and if these actions
are theirs, they still have nothing to do with revenge. When it is about
revenge, the state should be the target, not the common people. When the
people are targeted, and not the state, this means that something else is
hidden behind it. And even nationalism cannot achieve a connection. When
those who commit massacres against the people, or have such acts committed,
claim to do so in the name of the Kurdish people, they must, without wasting
any time, account for their acts in front of all our peoples, including the
Kurdish people, they must accept the responsibility for what they have done
and they must stop with this kind of actions immediately. Otherwise they
will have to account for history and for the people. REVOLUTIONARY JUSTICE
AND THE REVOLUTIONARY CONCEPT WILL UNDOUBTEDLY DESTROY THE PROVOCATIONS OF
THE CONTRA-GUERRILLA!
