Efforts to provoke the Kurds of Anatolia
The Society for the Rise of Kurdistan was established on the day Armistice of Mudros
was signed, which was October 30, 1918. The particular attribute of this society was
its close ties to the authorities of the British deep state and that it served almost as the
center of British spying efforts. Mustafa Kemal himself made it clear that the society
aimed to build an independent Kurdish state under foreign protection. The British
1
deep state used such organizations as fronts to devise its plans for building a Kurdish
state in Anatolia. British High Commissioner Admiral John de Robeck, made this
plan very clear on March 26, 1920.
"Kurdistan must completely secede from Turkey and gain independence. We can rec-
oncile the interests of Armenians and the Kurds. Seyid Abdülkadir, the head of Kurdish
Club in Istanbul (Society for the Rise of Kurdistan) and Şerif Pasha, the Kurdish dele-
gate in Paris, are at our service." 2
The aforementioned Şerif Pasha is the person who started the separatist movements
in Anatolia under the direction of the British deep state. Together with Sheikh Ab-
dülkadir, he made sure that the Treaty of Sévres had an 'independent Kurdish state'
clause.
However, this plan of the British deep state came to nothing.
In April 1919, the tribes that Major Noel worked to draw to British side, vowed to fight
on the side of the Ottoman Empire against the occupiers until their last breath. A
telegram sent by the British High Commission to London reveals that 30,000 Kurds
would fight along the side of Mustafa Kemal Pasha as soon as the Turkish War of In-
dependence started. Around the same time, Kurdish tribal leaders were attending the
Erzurum Congress and were elected to the Representative Committee.
Şerif Pasha and Sheikh Abdülkadir, spies and minions of the British deep state, car-
ried out propaganda claiming that Kurds wanted to leave the Ottoman Empire. This
propaganda led Kurdish leaders all over the country to send countless telegrams swear-
ing allegiance first to the Ottoman Parliament and then to the Turkish Parliament in
Ankara. 3
One telegram sent to the Turkish Parliament on February 26, 1920 read as follows:
"We learned about the separatist efforts of traitor and heretic Şerif Pasha, targeting
Kurds. Turks and Kurds are one. Kurds and Turks are true brothers in blood and reli-
gion. They share the same land. Kurds never consider leaving the Ottoman communi-
ty or the Islamic Union. They wish to live within the Islamic Union until the end of the
world. We hereby declare to the whole world that we strongly disavow the activities of
Şerif Pasha and other similar efforts and that we are loyal to our government."
The telegram was signed by the following:
Mayor Ali Riza, Yusuf the head of Keçel Tribe, Seyit Ali the head of Abbasi Tribe,
