Peter Stitt Scottish friend of Kurdish people expresses his feeling towards Turks, Kurds and ROJ TV
I am a Scot, raised in England, and I have the freedom to question the continued domination of my country by England. That is democracy, I can say what I want, where I want, to whom I want and when I want. Again, that is democracy. Are you democratic Turkey? Truly? Why do you still have a law that allows a brilliant writer such as Orhan Pamuk to be imprisoned on a charge of "insulting the state of Turkey"?
I have seen Kurdish Turkey and I have seen, heard and smelt the fear whenever security forces were present. I think this fear deserves a voice and the one and only voice that will suffice is Roj TV. If the channel is closed then Turkish democracy may as well be closed.I love Turkey and the Turkish people and I find it sad I feel compelled to say these things.
Please DO print my full name because I am proud of my links with a great people, the Kurds, and I'm not really worried of the consequences (the luxury of living in a real democracy, certainly not heroism!).
Biji Kurdistan u biji hami Kurd,
Peter Stitt
