Funds for the revolution! ---- Join the funding campaign ---- When the seat Koban? by the
troops of the Islamic State (Daech) began in mid-September, thousands of young people
flocked from all over Turkey to strengthen the defense of the city, provided by YPG and
YPJ. Activists and militants of the group Devrimci Anarsist Faaliyet (Revolutionary
Anarchist Action, DAF) were included. ---- DAF bases its strategy on the action within
social movements, endeavoring to change things "here and now" in an anti-capitalist
perspective, anti-statist, and the fight against all forms of oppression: patriarchy,
religion , heterosexism, productivism. Members of DAF refuse military service in the
Turkish army and support the struggles of national minorities flouted by the Turkish
Jacobinism - Alevis, Armenians, Kurds ...
On September 25, you were able to join Koban?. Why?
DAF: In Turkey, speaks of the "Kurdish problem". In reality, the struggle of the Kurds for
their freedom shows that the problem is rather the state. At the state and capitalism, the
Kurdish movement opposed the organized power of the people.
The revolution of July 2012 in the Rojava (Syrian Kurdistan) has, in fact, abolished the
boundaries between people of Syria and those in Turkey. Ankara, fearing a revolutionary
contagion, had also tried to build a wall. As the war in Syria opposes statist and
capitalist different factions, the Kurds have created a front for the real freedom of the
people, transcending nationality issues. As revolutionary anarchists, it was impossible
not to involve us.
What form this support take?
DAF: To support Koban?, "stress communities" were organized along the 25 km border, in
particular Suru?. There are people from the neighborhood or from all corners of Anatolia
and Mesopotamia. These "communities of resistance" are vital to help r?fugi?.es and deter
abuses by the Turkish army.
DAF comrades crossed the border - we can not tell you how - and reached Koban?. This is
very important for the people of the city to feel revolutionary solidarity against this
bloody mob calling itself Daech. YPG is the front line, and therefore we try to help them
as best as possible.
What is your opinion on the Kurdish Left? She is moving towards self-management ideas?
DAF: In the popular struggles for freedom, anarchism has always been a catalyst. Long
before the distribution of state socialism, long before the doctrine of the "right of
peoples to self-determination", the people fought for their freedom, but not necessarily a
"nation-state". What happens in the Rojava, as in Chiapas, to do otherwise is not a
classic "national liberation struggle".
Will he traces of anarchism in the Kurdish Left today? The question needs to be asked.
When you see his speech on building a life free State, the social ecology, and proximity
to the "democratic confederalism" with direct democracy, one wonders if there is not this
internalization a certain anarchism.
