I just did a quick search for the PKK and I could not find much about
from their point of view. I know other groups such as the FARC and ELN
have their web pages but I didn't see the PKK. They are in the news now
and they have an opportunity to present their case about Turkish
oppression. I have read here that they think they have a legitimate
reason for their struggle, and I have also talked to real people who
know about the area and they say that Turkey is wrong. Why can't the
PKK get their point of view out with the world's attention on the area
now?
