More than 12,000 Kurdish lives lost fighting against ISIS, only for those who still remain be attacked by Turkish backed jihadists and thugs again, bombed endlessly, water and electricity supplies cut, more people displaced and targeted. Turkish fascism is deeply dedicated to the eradication of Kurdish culture and lives. Turkey aided ISIS against the Kurds. Turkey built SNA against the Kurds. Turkey fosters and creates jihadist groups to achieve its anti-Kurdish agendas.

This is Syrias new female police force, in their own uniform and their own weapons securing the Damascus International fair. But there is no comparing them to the YPJ. The YPJ are a completely independent military force that are led by women and run by women. They do not take orders from men and any decisions made are taken by the women leadership because one of their purpose is to resist domination by men, retain their agency and demonstrate their seperate will and objectives as free women. Just because a woman is in uniform does not make her empowered nor free; system of patriarchal domination utilises handmaidens in service of its patriarchal violence. Even ISIS had its own women’s units who carried weapons, policed women’s attire and terrorized them, kept minority women such as Yezidis as sex slaves for men and husbands and used religious teaching and propaganda to subjugate and brainwash women within the male centred political order. The YPJ on the other hand operate within the Kurdish philosophy of Jin, Jiyan, Azadi (Women, Life, Freedom) that centers women’s lives, liberation and agency at the forefront of society, politics, culture and economics. None of that is present here. It’s simply women in uniforms being paraded as a show of women supporting the jihadist led government.

Here you go world. You get what you deserve. Your beloved Syrian “President” and fellow jihadists are releasing ISIS prisoners. May they flood your cities as they did ours. May every single state complicit in the betrayal of the Kurds experience jihadists running wild and free in your cities. This world doesn’t deserve the Kurds. Good luck and don’t bother calling us again. We’re so done with you! #DefendRojava

We hold the world responsible for the atrocities committed by jihadist scum against our people! They are kidnapping our girls! They are looting our cities for our girls and women! And those who are fighting on the frontlines are outnumbered and betrayed and condemned for having the courage to fight and protect their honor and that of their fellow women. These jihadists are fighting to collect Kurdish women as their “gifts” as they did with our Yezidi girls in Shengal in 2014! Shame on this disgusting, pathetic, useless world that loves religious extremists more than peace or humanity.

Jin, Jiyan, Azadi (Women, Life, Freedom) is not a slogan that was born in western universities; it is a philosophy forged in Kurdish women’s struggle- in the mountains, in the prisons and the streets. It insists that no society is free if women are not free. It insists that democracy must be lived from the grounds up. It demands that national liberation should not overshadow or dismiss women’s liberation. That women are the foundation of life, and only with them can there be genuine freedom, democracy, justice and peace.

Right now, every single Kurd is Deniz Undav. Because there isn’t a single Kurd living across Iran, Iraq, Turkey, or Syria who hasn’t experienced the intense, open, and violent racism that world famous Kurdish-German striker Deniz Undav faced on the field yesterday. To be a Kurd is to be the other: the ostracised, the silenced, the erased. They only want a Kurd who is cowed. A Kurd who never fights back. A Kurd who accepts silence. Or worse, a Kurd who becomes the “house slave,” proudly serving the very regimes that occupy and destroy our lands. But Deniz’s courage and unwavering commitment to repeating that he is Kurdish, and that he does not “speak Turkish”, is a reminder to us all that the courage of refusing to betray our Kurdishness is the very foundation of why we have remained a nation and a people. A people who have endured decades of erasure at the hands of four united regimes that have lacked even the most basic elements of morality or conscience in their treatment of us. Today, Deniz is our Kurdistan; a beloved son to more than 50 million Kurds whose dream of freedom from the tyranny of our oppressors refuses to die in their hearts.

It’s a mistake to see the YPJ as solely a response to end ISIS terrorism or an integral aspect of Kurdish national liberation. The YPJ are a permanent military force that will only dissolve itself when capitalist, statist and patriarchal oppression ends. They are ideologically committed to protecting women and themselves so long as these hierarchies of oppression and violence against women exist. They are a permanent women’s self protection units here to stay. Even if the HTS/Jolani government manoeuvres the disarming of the SDF somehow, the YPJ is ideologically committed to permanent self protection even against the men/forces in their own communities. They cannot be dissolved! The YPJ is one of the most radical and groundbreaking aspects of Rojava’s Revolution.

The Rojava Revolution has endured because we have something no one else in the world has: our women lead the fight, lead the struggle, lead the path towards hope and humanity. It is they who led the fight against ISIS and it is still they who continue to lead the fight against Turkish backed jihadists of SNA and anyone else who threatens the integrity of their values, the sacred blood of their martyrs and their freedom!

If you want to understand how the Iranian regime treats the Kurds you can start here. From fatwas against us to massacres, to executions, to imprisonment and torture this regime only wants the annihilation of the Kurds. #JinJiyanAzadi

The invaders, the colonizers will never love the land as we do. Every tree cut down is a stab at the heart of our Kurdishness. Every mountain razed is the death of memory and history. They destroy our ancient forests and sacred mountains in the hopes of destroying us.
