                 Having carried out thousands of bloody terrorist attacks, tens of
             thousands of murders, massacres and assassinations to this day, the
             PKK has been following the violence and terrorism methods that were
             personally introduced by Lenin in reaching its goals:
                 I In principle we have never rejected, and cannot reject, terror. Terror is one
                 of the forms of military action that may be perfectly suitable and even es-
                 sential at a definite juncture in the battle, given a definite state of the troops
                 and the existence of definite conditions. 161

                 Without in the least denying violence and terrorism in principle, we de-
                 manded work for the preparation of such forms of violence as were calcu-
                 lated to bring about the direct participation of the masses and which
                 guaranteed that participation. 162
                 In 1906, i.e., 11 years before the Bolshevik Revolution, Lenin wrote
             the following in his article, which was published in Proletari, advocating
             the methods of armed struggle, civil war, and assassination of the gov-
             ernment officials:
                 A Marxist bases himself on the class struggle, and not social peace. In cer-
                 tain periods of acute economic and political crises the class struggle ripens
                 into a direct civil war, i.e., into an armed struggle between two sections of
                 the people. In such periods a Marxist is obliged to take the stand of civil
                 war. Any moral condemnation of civil war would be absolutely impermis-
                 sible from the standpoint of Marxism.
                 ... The phenomenon in which we are interested is the armed struggle. It is
                 conducted by individuals and by small groups. ... Armed struggle pursues
                 two different aims, which must be strictly distinguished: in the first place,
                 this struggle aims at assassinating individuals, chiefs and subordinates in
                 the army and police; in the second place, it aims at the confiscation of mon-
                 etary funds both from the government and from private persons. 163
                 Reading the following statements of Lenin, one will be astonished
             to see how he describes the present-day terrorism of the PKK:
                 … to launch attacks under favourable circumstances is not only every rev-
                 olutionary’s right, but his plain duty. The killing of spies, policemen, gen-
                 darmes, the blowing up of police stations, the liberation of prisoners, the
                 seizure of government funds for the needs of the uprising. . . every detach-
