Hello from istanbul,
Firstly i am turkish and i've a lot of kurdish friends and relatives and none of
them supporting pkk however they hate from terrorists.Also i don't care about race
it's not important for me becoz i'm not a racist and terrorist.
And in Turkey all citizens have equal rights and is getting better more and more except coup times.
Last 10 ten years always improved. In the past some mistakes may have been , it doesn't change a wrong thing to right. Of course Turkey have racist people and bad people as all over the world .
Besides most of kurdish people don't vote for pkk's party although they jeopardize their lifes , i would like to denote that some people living in east just votes by violence to pkk's party , because if they don't, they know that pkk will fire their villages ( my kurdish friends saying) I think it's all about education , we all abviously see that The East don't have education so they can easily be deceived AND THIS IS WHY pkk destroy schools in east of Turkey.
Interesting comments, FA, and thanks for posting.
I definitely agree that the level of education and infrastructure in the east could be improved.
That said, cities like Sanli Urfa are very well developed, and seem to have good facilities.
