Kurdistan History in Review: Kurds and Kurdistan a Cornerstone of History
Posted on September 23, 2017 by Editorial Staff in Contributions
The existence of the Kurdish people, their land and culture dates back to before the recorded History, and has continued to the present day. Due to its strategic location, its significant contributions to the history of human civilization and its coveted nature and natural resources, Kurdistan has been a place of confrontation by competing powers that has brought immense human tragedies and acts of genocide to the land and the people of Kurdistan. Discovery of mass graves, the tragic death of thousands of defenseless men, women and children as victims of chemical weapons in the Kurdish town of Halabja, continuous arrests, imprisonments, and execution of Kurdish political activists in Iran and Turkey and the denial of full rights elsewhere in the Middle East is a well-documented fact that can no longer be denied and ignored by the international community.
