Let me start off by telling a little story.

I'm originally from Erzincan where a lot of Kurds, Turks (both Alevi and Sunni) and Armenians used to live as neighbours in peace and harmony. My great-grandfather Emo agha used to visit the Armenian villages a lot. They liked him a lot, he used to bring Kurdish bread, cheese to them to eat, and the Armenians reacted to this by giving cows, goats and so on. Until 1915 everything was peaceful in these villages on the short of the Ferhat in Erzincan. When the death squadrons came the Armenians were forced to leave and leave everything behind. They threw their possessions like gold and jewels into the Ferhat. They told Emo agha "We want you to have all these farms and animals, we have to escape". Upon hearing this, Emo agha took many of the Armenian babies and hid them among the Kurdish babies in our village.

I'm telling this little story because of the fact I was born from 2 half Kurdish half Armenian parents. You can understand why now. Although the disgraceful Hamidiye movement, which is a stain on the Kurdish honour, has went along with the Turkish government because of their fanatic islamic beliefs, I believe in the peace and harmony that belongs to the Armenian-Kurdish neighbour-like relation.

If only everyone could see eachother as a human being first and then as a Kurd, Armenian or Turk.

Armenian people, I feel your pain.

 

Biji Ermenistan, Biji Kurdistan u Gelek Mirovaniye.

Yes it is true also a friend of mine who is from Turkey and is a Kurd has armenian grand uncle, who had grown up within the Kurds after his parent been killed.

 

Also a Kurdish girl from Erzincan told me the same story, she said when her grandfather was a child the Euphrates (Ferhat as ion the text) was called the red river, because people said that at a time there was more blood than water in the river.
