I don't know feelings were assigned by people groups. The leader of the PKK and one the philosophic roots of the YPG and the YPJ has been outspoken in his affirmation of the Armenian genocide. And these young women and men fighting for their lives and their fledgling revolution were born a century after those events. Seems a strange post to me. Like the general Jewish feeling is to hate Italians somewhat less than Germans in response to events today. I used the word Turkey to refer to the State, not all Turks in general.




Thanks for your post, Michael.
