Page 301 - America's Failure to Perceive the PKK

The village guard system has been one
of the most effective systems that dealt
the hardest blow on the PKK. Therefore,
at times of ceasefire the primary
request of the PKK has always been to
disband this unit. That is why the
village guard system should definitely
be strengthened with more protection
and its conditions should be improved.

their nation have paid service

against the PKK militants and
many of our village guards were
martyred on that account when the
PKK targeted their families and
raided their villages. Despite all
this, our village guards duly per-
formed their duties for the country

with no fear, having faith that their lives are for God and in submission
to our Lord, holding their heads up all the time.
If we pay close attention, it is the village guards that caused the
PKK run into difficulties and disturbances throughout its history.

According to the amendment made in Village Law number 422 on
th
March 26 , 1985 the Temporary Village Guard system was enacted.
Right after the villages on the side of the state attained village guard
status, the PKK pointed its treacherous guns at the village guards, and
even further, raided their villages and slaughtered their spouses,
elders and children. This is further evidence affirming that the PKK is
a perfidious terror organization that shoots against innocent women,

children and elderly people and sets houses with babies in cradles on
fire, not only defenseless soldiers or village guards. As a matter of fact,
Öcalan singled out the village guards and their families in many of his
instructions, and ordered the following: "We have to circumvent them
including their villages, in person and their families. They have to be
reproached with a special setting of revenge. We cannot ignore them; sup-
pression is imperative." 116
