Komala and its politics

3- Islamic Republic of Iran and the result of it’s rule in Kurdistan

 The existence of the Islamic Republic for more than two decades resulted many set backs for the Iranian people. The political, economical and social devastation has been huge for the people of this country. The Iranian regime has imposed the a series of discriminative policies in Kurdistan,  which has ultimately resulted in  the military occupation of Kurdistan, widespread poverty amongst this  massive population, the suppression of Kurdish culture, drug addiction (especially amongst youth), religious suppression, forced migration, imprisonment, terror, torture, and the Killing of whoever  opposing these tyrannical policies.

In August 1980, the regime of the Islamic Republic following various unfounded accusations and phony justifications, out rightly rejected the legitimate demands of the Kurdish people and lunched a massive military offensive in Kurdistan. The cities and villages of Kurdistan have been bombed heavenly with thousands of people killed or executed. Since that time Kurdistan has remained an occupied land. However, systematic harassment and killing of Kurdish people by the Islamic regime has not been able to crush the resistance of our people. The Kurdish peoples heroically continued the struggle for their human rights and their national democratic aspirations.

We have witnessed in recent years, a new growth and formation of political and cultural consciousness among the Kurdish people all over Kurdistan. A broad section of the especially  young people, who are fed up with the repression of their national rights, the growing problems of  mass poverty and unemployment, have started a new political dynamics in Iranian Kurdistan. Young people, who do not see any future for themselves under the tyranny and military occupation in Iranian Kurdistan, are considering more and more the necessity of organizing resistance against the Islamic Republic. Thus, we are witnessing a changing balance in the relationship of the forces in Iranian Kurdistan. These changes have manifested themselves in dozens of popular uprisings in Kurdish cities and towns in the last few years.
