PJAK, The Free Life Party of Kurdistan, — To begin with, we congratulate and honour the birthday of the Kurdish national leader and the sunlight of freedom -Leader Apo- to the Kurdish nation in all parts of Kurdistan, all the Middle Eastern nations as well as Apo the Leader.
Without a doubt the birth of Apo the Leader and the establishment of ideological, political and ethical concepts of Apoist Movement in Kurdistan mark a new beginning and constitute a turning point in the history of the struggle for freedom in Kurdistan as well as the Middle East. By creation of a new political-ideological concept in Kurdistan and transcendence from certain concepts, mentalities and personalities that were imposed on the society by the capitalist modernity and the regional conservative system, Leader Apo maintains the millennium-long struggle of the oppressed people for real freedom and free individuals and society, and he has stood up for the creation of democratic civilisation in contrast to capitalist and imperialist civilisation. As a historic leader, Leader Apo has endeavoured to transcend the imposed destiny on humanity in general and the Middle Eastern nations and the Kurdish people in particular. And by working out of a broader and clearer horizon for the humanity, he provided the formulation for the solution of the deepened crisis of the humanity, and in this respect he has taken courageous and historic steps. He has managed to carry out his leadership duty in the best possible manner, and has become the truthful representative and the awakened conscious of the Kurdish society. He has reached the pioneering rank in the struggle for the freedom of humanity in the international level.
Owing to this fact and despite their own eternal conflicts, the two mentioned concepts imposed on the human society, have forged alliances and continue to plot international conspiracies to liquidate and disintegrate Leader Apo and the Kurdish Resistance Movement. It’s been 12 years that Leader Apo has been held in a solitary confinement in Imrali Island Prison, where he has been subjected to physical and psychological pressures, beside the humiliation and causing concern about the possibility of the elimination of Kurdish rightful representative, attempts of humiliation, capitulation and elimination of the entire Kurdish nation have been made. Nevertheless, Leader Apo has stood against all these policies and conspiracies, with a heroic and unique struggle he managed to execute his historic role and overturned such destructive attempts, and he also stood up for the will-power of his nation. Based on this, the birth of Leader Apo is the re-birth of the hope for freedom, and the freedom of our leader from Imrali Prison, entails the survival of free Kurds and free society. This would be achieved through an omnipresent struggle, a historic resistance in all the possible fields, in all parts of Kurdistan and even the escalation of the struggle among all the region’s nations.
As a result of the outrage of Kurdish nation against the international conspiracy and the abduction of Leader Apo, and to progress toward freedom and real democracy and to mount the struggle in the Eastern Kurdistan and Iran, the establishment of our party PJAK was declared through a congress in the birthday of Leader Apo. In an active manner, PJAK initiated its campaign in all the regions of East Kurdistan and Iran. Our party has taken the same ideological-political concept built by Leader Apo, and based on the Apoist intellectual-philosophical foundation it has managed to mount its campaign in all the political, social, cultural and organisational dimensions in a short term. PJAK inspired a new hope for struggle in the Kurdish people along with the other Iranian nations, and despite the shortcoming, it has taken considerable steps to fulfil its pioneering role.
The backward and conservative regime of Islamic Republic of Iran has responded to the will-power of our nation inhumanly and savagely, the Kurdish legitimate and peaceful demands and the call for a democratic solution to the Kurdish issue and the other Iranian nations have been responded by forging alliance with the other occupying powers of Kurdistan and the launching of joint operations against the Kurds. The Iranian authorities have insisted on oppression, occupation, cruelty and dictatorship. Nevertheless, as a result of the prevalent struggle and the selfless resistance of Kurdish people and their pioneers in all regions of Eastern Kurdistan and Iran, democratic campaigns have been successfully carried out, and the Iranian conducts and policies are being neutralised and rendered ineffective.
So far our party PJAK has conducted three congresses and one conference, in which it went through the mistakes and solidified the organisational coherence. It also took concrete steps to become a party, and made efforts for the formation national unity to fulfil its commitment toward the freedom of the Kurdish nation and to respond and show gratitude toward the Kurdish heroic martyrs in Eastern Kurdistan. Without a doubt, the 7th anniversary of our party’s establishment marks a new phase in the liberation struggle of our nation in Eastern Kurdistan, and we strive to mount our campaign in all aspects of our struggle. In such a sensitive and historic stage in which the possibility of freedom for our people is higher than ever, we do feel the burden of responsibility and commitment on our shoulders.
At the end, we do congratulate the 7th anniversary of the establishment of our party – in the birthday of the freedom’s sunlight- to our nation in all parts of Kurdistan particularly the Kurds in Eastern Kurdistan and to all the freedom-campaigners of the Kurdish people. Based on this we call upon our nation to solidify their national unity and to mount their struggle in all the available fields. To achieve freedom, to free our leader, to bring about the truth democracy and to stand up for the martyrs of this struggle, we call upon them, shoulder to shoulder of the pioneers; play their role in the liberation revolution of the Kurds and the Iranian nations. We call on all the intellectuals, artists, writers, teachers and the religious preachers, and all the influential figures of the Kurdish society to participate in this struggle and to act with responsibility. We do also call upon all the boys and the girls of our society to take part in the revolutionary ranks and by doing so strengthen our campaign throughout cities, towns and villages.
Revolutionary Greetings
