    Hello , I am currently looking into demonstrations or strikes or other forms of civilian shows of discontent in Afrin post-Turkish occupation aimed at specific groups. If you know of any, could you please try to share the information and sources with me? Thanks.

    Just a casual reminder that President Erdoğan had applied to the ECHR three times himself: - In 1999, requested a "fair trial" - In 2002, requested to have his criminal record cleared - In 2002, requested removal of the Supreme Election Council's ruling that he couldn't be MP

    Although this isn't a fool-proof test, whenever people tell me X minority group doesn't want to be independent and only Y group is agitating. I like to ask them if they should be allowed to vote about it. The results of that question is almost uniformly the same.

    Hopefully they will rule on Figen Yüksekdağ's unlawful attention as well.

    The European Court of Human Rights has just ordered Selahattin Demirtaş to be released from pre-trial detention in Turkey. Demirtaş, a former presidential candidate and HDP leader, has been in prison since November 2016.

    I have openly asked the person running that account to give up the act and stop role-playing. Given how insulting some of they write "as a Kurd" is. I would have continued to ignore this account if not for the attention serious analysts are giving it.

    I hate subtweeting, I really do. But recently I have seen a lot of serious Iraqi analyst accounts give credence to a troll account pretending to be a Kurdish youth who is opposed to Kurdish self-determination. The person running the account does not understand a word of Kurdish.

    Turns out invading and occupying Afrin, and displacing and otherwise harassing thousands of Kurds, may not have worked out that well for Turkey

    16.27 percent of Istanbul's population over the age of 18 participated. During and after the protests, Turkish Twitter users jumped from 1.8 million to more than 9 million. Many or most of those joined out of frustration with lack of news coverage of the protests.

    7/7 One of the main points of conflicts k the Kurdistan Region of Iraq has been recent Arab incomers to the city who haven't learned the language. If that is something that creates issues in the same generation, what effect does a third generation non-speaker produce?

    6/7 Communities that move around the Middle East often make great efforts to learn their new host languages and often do really well at integrating. Chaldean and Arab communities in Slemani may as well be Kurds by now considering their integration level.

    5/7 I'm honestly really saddened by this as when I was a kid, all me & my family wanted to do was live somewhere at peace & integrate. You might be able to chalk this down to immigrant communities worldwide creating their own lexicons etc,. But why doesn't this happen back home?
