If you read this entire comment and you will learn all about it issue.
As a Kurdish born in Turkey.
Everyone living, born or living in Turkey is Turkish.
It has as much to do with thought as it has to do with race.
When any person lives in Turkey and says I feel Turkish, he is a Turk. It's that simple.
Anyone who thinks that the Kurds will live a comfortable life when the state called Kurdistan is established will see the truth. This will never happen.
It is a joint US-British project that opened the Kurdish-Turkish problem to Turkey.
Please don't see this as racism. It's the truth, wherever there is a war in the world, it's either because of England or America or France.
Because in the future, water will be more valuable than oil and Mesopotamia is one of the most productive regions of the world in terms of water.
If you pay attention, you will see that the war in Mesopotamia never ended after the collapse of the Ottoman Empire.
Do you think this is really because of ordinary religious or racial problems?
- You can ask all your questions about the subject. I will gladly answer.

I looked at the comments and the Turks said: The motherland of the Kurds is Turkey, we are brothers. ok, but homeland is the land where people get education in their own language, learn their own history and culture in schools, and use their own identity. For example, there are more than one mother tongue in more than 60 countries in the world. and many countries have federal and self-government. but they do not exist in Turkey. Kurds cannot receive education in their mother tongue. they cannot learn their own history and culture in schools. and they all have to accept to be turks and there is no any self government for the Kurds. This is not brotherhood, this is assimilation. As Kurds do not have these rights in Turkey, there are constant riots. if Turks really sees the Turks as the brothers of the Kurds. It should support these rights for the Kurds. but unfortunately no Turks support them.

kurds are basically an iranian nation who used to be one of the most important people of sassanid and acheamenid empire and many other iranian empires
so that is the reason why:
they were a part of iran not sth that never existed(a separate kurdistan)
but now during 21th century there are some(not a big deal) amount of separatist traitors which you can obviously see their hatred towards other iranian nations. if you ask me pan-kurds are in fact super racist against turks persians and arabs

Turkey's borders are mostly determined by mountains, not politically. also one third of the kurdish population lives in istanbul and non-kurd population in kurdish region is about 30 percent. there are many kurdish ministers and even a prime minister in turkish political history, most probably a new one after 2023 elections. ethnicity issues are very different than western culture although british and israel's efforts to make kurds and neighboring ethnic groups enemies each other

The Kurds are the Aryan and Iranian people far from Iran. We Iranians consider the Kurds to be our consanguine and brothers and sisters. We have thousands of years of common history. Genetic research has proven that we are close to the Kurds.
Iran is a country with great ethnic diversity, we Iranians want to have a free country for all our races and religions and to restore our historical greatness with unity.
The united people of Iran will build a free and prosperous country

You forgot the millions of Kurds who are living in Anatolia and Western Turkey too. My parents are from Ankara the capital of Turkey. There are millions of Kurds around that area - Corum, Konya and so on. 1/3 of Turkey is Kurdish. They around 35 million just in Turkey. Travel to Turkey, you will see what i mean. Remember the elite has deleted everything related to the word Kurd, even the population number.

Having a nation doesn't mean having a country. Kurds have been a nation and are, but they've united with other nations (like Azerbaijani Turks, Lurs, Balochs, etc) and made a country called Persia (nowadays, Iran. We lived together without any problem for centuries until western imperialism came to the Middle East.

Kurds, like Lur, Bakhtiari and other Aryan tribes have always been an integral part of the Aryan Imperium (Iranshahr.
They have never had their own country, because modern nation-states are a new concept and entirely foreign to the Aryan Imperium.

Antant: We'll divide you, pass your parts to your neighbors as payment for war efforts and make a Kurdistan from you!
Turkey: How about NO? You can have the oil fields and here have some oil money instead!
Antant: Understandable! Have a nice day!

I wonder how it feels to stretch your ass in Europe and decide the fate of nations from your own ass just in the comments. As if the Turks found the colonial logic and the Mongols started the world war

If you're so upset for some races don't have their countries, why don't give from your own land and leave us alone? Or at least take your soldiers out of middle east countries with oil?

There is no country called Kurdistan. It is a result of the divide and rule tactic that the westerners, who want to drag the region into chaos, are trying to do.

There has never been a country in history called Kurdistan. It seems that Britain still enjoys fragmenting large countries to weaken and colonize them.
