In memorial of Martyr Gendarmerie Colonel Alim YILMAZ. He was martyred by an IED placed by traitors in Elazig area long years ago but his personality will be remembered. A true patriot.

May Allah grant Jannah to all our martyrs, may he help our veterans and give power to the Turkish Nation.

Turkey is cleaning terrorists for 40 years now and still it doesnt end. Lots of money wasted and damage done for the struggle against the PKK. A megalomanous amount of 330 billion dollar.

We could build airports, schools, hospitals, viaducts, highways, channels, bridges with that money. We could put that money in defence or housing projects.

We must change our tactics. The TAF is fighting the PKK with Sovjet-methods (crushing, destroying, killing, burning) but these methods have no end and are resulting in more violence and hate.

The TAF must fight the PKK with Nazi-style methods (violence combined with winning of the hearts). Crush the armed wing but build schools for the Kurdish kids in those problematic regions. Bomb the camps of the PKK but also mock them with comics and animated series about the heroes of the TAF against the villains of the PKK.

Teach, publish and produce soft power propaganda. And show yourself in the eastern region. The youth there sees only armoured vehicles and soldiers. They dont see public figures of statesmen who want to listen to their problems.

Make those regions more livable, more safe, more hopefull by investing in socio-economic infrastructure. There are no brothels there, no loungebars, no workshops, no fabrics, no great manufacturers.

You cant win this war against terror without conquering the heart and minds of the people in those regions. Because the PKK is an examption.

West-Germany destroyed the RAF within 15 years. The UK dismantled the IRA within 30 years. Spain did the same with ETA and France with OAS. None of these organisations got financial or politic support from other states and non of these organisations had a very strong PR.

Thats difference with the PKK. They got support from NATO-states and non-NATO-states and have a very huge propaganda machine and great drugs and oil networks.

It wont work as long as kurds live in Turkey.

Kurds still live with that wet dream of kurdistan that was promised to them after ww1. Since they wanted to constantly break Turkey apart numerous times so the Turks employed ruthless methods to stamp them out to point where we denied them and called them Mountain Turks.

The Ottomans have been dealing with kurdish rebellions even before the Republic came to be. Our biggest mistake was allowing them come to anatolia. But it was necessary to contain the Safavids. Kurds also kurdified many of the non Kurds that lived in Eastern Turkey like Chechens and Some Turkmen tribes.

We have to be honest with ourselves all these problems stem from the long term.

In a way its starting to change a lot of Kurds are not really going onboard with independance because a lot of the times its led to disaster for them.

It is the second terrorist taking place in the "RED" Most Wanted list of the Ministry of Internal Affairs which is confirmed killed these days. The second one was killed together with a terrorists taking place in the "ORANGE" Most Wanted list in a drone strike. Both were members of the TKP/ML terrorist organization.
