NEWS CENTER – Peoples’ United Revolutionary Movement (HBDH) Executive Committee, “The peoples of Turkey and Northern Kurdistan, workers, youth, women and all the oppressed are opening the doors of a historical period. In the face of the oppression, plunder and exploitation policies of the AKP-MHP fascist regime, the peoples are calling to account with the power of the united revolution. The strength of the united revolution, HBDH, is now the reality of these lands; It is the power of the peoples to enlarge the revolutionary war and destroy fascism. In its 8th year, HBDH will expand its practice of the past 7 years, step by step, following its establishment in Medya Defense Areas and Istanbul/Gazi Neighborhood, on March 12, 2016. It has been 7 years that HBDH has fought nonstop for this cause to relieve the suffering of our peoples and all workers and to realize their aspirations, and 7 years that it has sworn to win the war against fascism.”
The statement said, “The policies of exploitation, rent and oppression, which are increasing day by day by AKP-MHP fascism, are becoming a greater expression of corruption, day by day.” People see and hear this rottenness every day and grow a great anger against it. The hand reaching out to the people under the rubble to amplify this anger is our hand. We are the ones who are fighting against those who have turned their homes and homes of tens of thousands of workers into graves for their political and economic interests. “We won this war!” We will not finish it until the day we say.”
THE PEOPLE’S HOPE FOR FREEDOM WILL GET VICTORY WITH UNITED STRUGGLE
The following points were also noted in the HBDH statement:
“The fascist government continues to cause death today as it did yesterday. Every problem of the working people is irreconcilable with the fascist government today as it was yesterday. The demands of the Kurdish people to fight against exploitation and occupation are constantly clashing with fascism. The demands of Alevis, women, youth and the entire people are constantly at war with the demands of a handful of exploitation and killing machines. In this system, no problem has already become unsolvable within its “legal” limits. What is needed today is to cross all boundaries and run to victory. The hope of freedom of the peoples against exploitation, oppression and occupation will only be victorious with a determined and warlike united struggle. Leaving 7 years behind, each practice and hundreds of actions HBDH exhibited has become the address of everyone who is angry against fascism and seeks power to overthrow it. HBDH thus won victories from each battle of the revolutionary war. Since the day we announced our establishment 7 years ago today, we have not hesitated to pay the price or to make them pay. And we will continue to fight everywhere so that our 8th year of struggle will be the year of the final battle.
The revolutionary war that we are waging today and will wage unfailingly tomorrow is for the freedom of the peoples, the power of the workers and the liberation of all the oppressed in the face of all the oppression, torture and massacres of the fascist power. We will pave the way for victory without giving credit to fascism’s empty words and without allowing it to undermine the united struggle and the power of all social dynamics. AKP-MHP fascism, which makes false propaganda to the public every day with all media tools, will not be able to get rid of the terrible end that awaits it. Every day of the 7 years we have left behind has been filled with the consciousness of being held to account. For this reason, we will continue to be everywhere, from every slogan chanted in the streets to the bullet we fire in the mountains, from the fact that our militias follow the murderous fascists to strikes in the factories.
7 YEAR 8: ILLUMINATING OUR YEAR
HBDH has witnessed the fear of fascism at every moment during all the years that it has grown its fighting power, determination and determination. Even though HBDH tried to hide its fear of fascist power as it grew, it didn’t work. Today, we are more organized and stronger than ever before. We will continue to disturb the sleep of the fascist government. The move to seek the lost legitimacy of the fascist power through elections and ballot boxes, and its efforts to instill fear in the people through its own mercenary gangs will not work either. The fascist government, which is working hard to eliminate all social struggle forces, will lose all its power and be helpless in the face of HBDH. For this reason, our most important task is to raise the united struggle in our 8th year with the practice of 7 years and to carry it from the mountains to the factories, from the campuses to the squares. No matter which way the fascist power wins the election, Whichever invasion launches its attack, it will not reach any power. It will be defeated by the United Revolutionary Movement.
The 7 years of struggle we left behind sheds light on our 8th year. We will continue to fight for those who resist in the dungeons, for those who do not give up their labor in the factories, for the women who fill the streets, for the young people who have narrowed the campuses to the fascists, to unite them and to make the fascist enemy pay the price.”
