THE REAL TRAITORS ARE THE PUPPETS OF IMPERIALISM
WHO SUCCEEDED IN GETTING AN EXECUTION VERDICT IN IMRALI

The oligarchy of Turkey has aimed its weapon of execution, part of the
methods of attack against the people, against Abdullah Ocalan with its
verdict of June 29, 1999. This verdict, as a follow up of the kidnapping of
Abdullah Ocalan in Kenya on February 15, 1999, the interrogation and the
isolation against him as part of a US-operation, is illegitimate,
unjustified and unjust. With this verdict, the oligarchy once again showed
its attitude towards the demands of the Kurdish people for justice and
freedom for Abdullah Ocalan. Execution is politics, made on the gallows.
The verdict against Abdullah Ocalan is nothing but an attempt to continue
the 70 year long policy of denial and genocide, now using the gallows. With
this verdict, the oligarchy states that it will, just as in the past,
answer the demands of the Kurdish people for justice and freedom with
murder, massacres and refusal, that the Kurdish people will not be granted
even the most limited rights. However, even with this death sentence with
chauvinistic spectacles, even with executing this verdict, the oligarchy
will not be able to destroy or stop the national liberation struggle of the
Kurdish people. No attack, no massacre or execution will be able to prevent
the national liberation struggle and the demands of the Kurdish people.
Those in power have murdered, but they were never able to stop the
struggle.
Those in power have continually attacked the peoples who fought for justice
and liberties and tried to destroy the struggle with these attacks. The
attacks were carried out in the form of genocide, massacres, torture,
execution, disappearances, et cetera. All these methods have one thing in
common, the goal to destroy the people's liberation struggle. But the
desired results were not achieved. But those in power helplessly continued
the method of execution as a direct state murder. It is however a universal
crime that revolutionaries, patriots, those who lead the struggle for the
people, who resist tyranny, are being executed. Those who are guilty of
such crimes, who execute those who resist oppression, must end these crimes
immediately. Although those in power, who demanded the death sentence with
the pretext of "separatism", have tried to hide with this verdict that they
themselves are the real separatists, their chauvinistic character was once
again revealed because of the events on Imrali. The ones who try to set up
peoples against each other, who want to destroy their brotherhood, are the
imperialists and their puppets. Because they see the future of their
governments in preventing the joint struggle of the peoples, they have
always done everything in their power to incite peoples against each other,
and they will continue to do so. The chauvinism, used by the people's
enemies against the peoples of different nationalities in our country, is a
result of the divide and rule policy of those who are in power. But the
peoples who have lived together for centuries are brothers and the real
trustees of our country aren't those who declared the death sentence on
Imrali, they are the Kurdish and the Turkish nations, together with our
people of different nationalities. The peoples and the revolutionaries who
represent them and the patriots aren't the ones who betray their country,
those are the puppets who have been selling out our country to imperialism
for years. This verdict cannot cover up the fact that they are the real
traitors.
Who is betraying the country... Who are really the ones who betray the
country.
Those who have been selling out our country to imperialism for years.
Those who have dropped tons of bombs on the Kurdish people, those who
committed massacres.
Those who have robbed the rights and the liberties from our people of
Turkish, Kurdish, Arab, Laz, Circassian, Georgian, and other nationalities.

Those who have banned the languages, the cultures and traditions of the
peoples, especially the Kurdish people, those who wanted to destroy these
languages, cultures and traditions and try to force the degenerated culture
of imperialism upon the people of our country.
The traitors are those who make chauvinism their basic policy, who try to
divide and split up the peoples. Those who have delivered our country into
the chains of imperialist exploitation, those who let the result of the
sweat of our peoples flow into the pockets of imperialism, and their own.
The traitors are those who fill our country with imperialist bases and who
allow other peoples to be bombed from these bases.
The traitors are those who sent the youngsters who have been drafted and
who are under the influence of demagogy into the homelands of other
peoples, to occupy Kosovo. Those who spoke out the death sentence against
the chairman of the PKK, Abdullah Ocalan, using "treason" as a pretext,
cannot hide the fact with this verdict that they themselves are the real
traitors. They cannot hide this fact for our people, and for history. Even
the show they put up on Imrali with the people and fascists who are formed
through chauvinism, is not sufficient to hide the dirty faces of the ones
who are in power.
The liberation of our country and freedom for our peoples will be achieved
through destroying these traitors and their state. Nobody should doubt
that. Without ending the rule of the collaborators with imperialism,
slavery and exploitation will not end for the Kurdish, the Turkish, Arab,
Laz, and the Circassian peoples, in short people of all nationalities. The
enemies of our peoples are the imperialists and their collaborators. The
liberation of our peoples will be achieved by expelling them from our
country and building the Revolutionary People's Power. Liberation and
freedom for our peoples can only be achieved by the Revolutionary Power.
Every other "solution" will mean, in different forms, the continuation of
the governments of collaborators with imperialism, the main reason for the
existing exploitation and oppression.
Those who will end exploitation and oppression are the peoples, their
liberation struggle, and their power.
Let us unite, fight and win.
For the liberation and the freedom of the people, for a life in brotherhood
in our liberated country, for independence, democracy and socialism.
