Forever Kurdish, destruction of a nation

Shorsh Mustafa Rasool

Harith Zahawi

I embarked on this work to try to document as much as possible the systematic and planned genocide that the Iraqi government is implementing against the Kurdish people.

When one thinks of the mad, destructive onslaught and the permanent scars it has left on the people and the environment, one can only see catastrophic long-term effects. At the same time, one wonders what is happening to the conscience and opinion of the rest of the world.

Is the world prepared to stand by and watch one man destroy this peaceful and ancient nation? To take a passive stand is to encourage Saddam Hussein and indirectly legitimize the use of chemical weapons and mass deportation. Unless collective world action is taken now, a future price in human lives will be beyond imagination!

I would like to thank the Patriotic Union of Kurdistan for all the help and support they have afforded me.
