Turkey has used its decision to fight ISIS as an excuse to attack Kurds in Iraq. (There is evidence that factions within Turkey have actively supported ISIS fights before this decision.) This is a opportunistic cold blooded attempt to justify its own suppression of Kurds who live within Turkey --and now extend it to kill Kurds across the border in Iraq. Kurdish forces have been the most effective and primary ally to the US in fighting ISIS. Tell Congress to put pressure on Turkey to stop its human rights abuses and cynical use of the ISIS fight to suppress the Kurds.
Why is this important?
I am a documentary filmmaker who has covered the plight of the Kurds in Iraq.
