The title is, "The PKK and Revolutionary Nonviolence: Transforming Struggle for Kurdish Freedom in Turkey." I also asked and (ask) for much prayer that this paper would reach the hearts of the leaders and members of the PKK. It is now published at the new Gandhi Center for Global Nonviolence at James Madison University. Dr. Sushil Mittal, director of the Center, requested that I send the following site to my friends and any who may be interested. If you are interested, the url address for the paper is http://www.jmu.edu/gandhicenter/workingpapers.shtml Feedback is welcome! Thank you. Truly, Nick Patler nickpatler@hotmail.com Dear friends,

There is no need to be unhappy about a very important and crucial fact as ethnic diversity in Iran.Even prior to establishment of so called Iran's " Nation-State" the diversity of Ethnic composition there was known by each ethnisity and by the rulers. With coming to the power of Pahlavi dinesty and imposion of "Modernity" from above the consept of national dominance and cultural preference of the new state is clearly evident. you write " Even Persian People are deprived of their basic rights" This is a very vague and unrealistic pronuncement. Persian people are not deprived from cultural and linguistic rights, But Azerbaijani Turks, Kurds, Beluchs, Turkemens, Arabs are denied their cultural rights. There is no official school or education in Azerbaijani Turkish or Kurdish. The none- persian children when they start schooling they are obliged to learn an imposed language which is persian. To give information about that it is not making "Fuss". There are other aspects of National Oppression and not equal treatment of none-persian population in Iran , that I am more than happy to discuss that with you. Take Care, Hejar Winston !

I am upset that these good people have no rights and freedom but lets remember that in today Iran NO ONE has any civil rights, not just Kurds or Arabs. Even persian people are deprived of their basic rights, so whats the fuss about? in Iran under the rule of clerics, no one has any type of civil rights, so a discussion on how bad the status of Kurdish/Arab/Baluchi bloggers are, is out of line here.
