Page 83 - America's Failure to Perceive the PKK

This period represented the start of an enforced change of tactics
on the part of the PKK, which had suffered serious losses and casual-
th
ties. The north of the 36 Parallel, included in the no-fly zone and under
U.S. control, represented a golden opportunity for the PKK. In this way,
the PKK acquired an area in which it could be accommodated, strength-
ened and even trained. However, in order to be able to make use of
these opportunities, it needed to do something to curry favor with the

anti-communist U.S. It became essential for it to adopt a pro-American
guise and to make it forgotten that it had committed terror in the name
of communism. If it could succeed in that, it would enjoy the support
of a superpower. And by a strange coincidence some circles in the U.S.
were working, just like them, to establish a Great Kurdistan in Turkey.
