There are two types of Kurds those who are fat, rich and bedazzled by the economical
bubble. Then there are those in Kubani, and the poor villages throughout
Kurdistan. Iraqi Kurds cannot stand by and watch, the least they can do is to
stop the hundreds of truckloads of Turkish goods entering Kurdistan every day.
Some may argue that we cannot afford to stop food entering the country and yes
they are right it will be difficult. Yet
our politicians have placed us in this situation by the systematic destruction
of Kurdish village life, agriculture, Kurdish crafts and small industrial
units. Everything has been lost to the ready availability of imports from neighbouring
countries! In Kurdistan we now look to the south (Baghdad) for our dollars and
to the north and east for our food and goods.
