1 1. A Secure Zone is not a military operation. It is
a strategy with entirely civilian ends that aims

the protection of women, children and the
elderly.

It means protecting those who cannot protect themselves. It means

offering people who have left behind their homes, jobs and schools the
opportunity to rebuild their lives, instead of suffering for long years
under primitive conditions. It is the responsibility of the entire world
to procure a safe place to live in peace for people who have suffered
for three years and for those whose homes have been burned and whose
places of worship have been destroyed. If the world is unable to pro-
vide a place of refuge for these homeless, hungry and suffering people,

that means there has been a collapse in the collective conscience of
mankind. People who fail to follow the path of good conscience may
one day, may God forbid, find themselves expecting others to follow
that path as well. All bureaucratic obstacles must therefore be done
away with and a security zone be established at once.

on Kobani, the PKK fled, leaving Kurdish mothers, children and old
people behind, while the Syrian Kurds found safety in Turkey. The PKK
that fought with unconventional war tactics up in the mountains grew
