Ocalan To The Yazidi Community: You Will Never Experience Another Genocide
Abdullah Ocalan has written a letter from Imrali Island to the Yazidi community in Shengal in response to gifts sent by the people of Shengal to the Leader.
“To the Shengal administration and the Yazidi community…
I am not Yazidi, but I have taken your pain and your identity to heart. You will never experience new genocides again; this oppression will never be repeated anywhere. I will not give up on holding those responsible for the last massacre accountable. I will not give up on the women and children who were abducted. I will fight to the end for their rescue and for justice to be served. I have made it my mission to work together to build a future where you can live freely and proudly continue your culture.
I have great respect for you. I protect your existence and your rights. I received the precious gift you sent. I promise that one day I will meet you wearing that outfit. With the hope of meeting in freedom and strength.

With greetings and respect
Abdullah Ocalan
