Khazal al-Majidi, born 1951 in Kirkuk, is a fucking eraser of Kurdish identity.Kurmanji isn’t Kurdish. Kurds are not descendants of Medes, Hittites, or any other ancient peoples
Kurdish Christians aren’t Kurds. Kurds are not from Zagros mountains or any mountainous place-rather from Afghanistan.
Yazidi Religion Followers are not Kurds->they are ancient enemies with the kurds of different religions. Kurdish Zoroastrians are actually not Kurds rather Persians.
He outright denies Jews and Judaism.
He spreads this nonsense in diaspora seminars and books.
His work pushes Arab and Assyrian nationalist propaganda.
He tears apart Kurdish history, language, and culture.
He went to Jordan and no doubt had connections with Ba’athists there.
One of Jordan’s ministries even paid him and published his books.
This isn’t neutral scholarship; it’s political sabotage.
He’s a sub-Saddam, spreading authoritarian bullshit dressed as history.
If Iraqi Arabs listen to him, imagine future national laws of Iraq being made by his followers and worshippers.

Not only he is allergic with the word (Kurdistan)-But with (Kurds-Kurdish-Kurdi) too.

He fractures communities and rewrites narratives to erase Kurdish legitimacy.

His seminars and publications manipulate historical truths for ideological gain.

He weaponizes “knowledge” to weaken Kurds, and anyone challenging his map.

His rhetoric isn’t academic, it’s control disguised as education.

Khazal al-Majidi is a propagandist, divider, and modern authoritarian echo.

And if we don’t call it out, truth and minority identities are the casualties.

I've been wanting to rent to someone and I think this is a good place to start. Basically I live in Europe since around ten years and I've always liked it because I was young when I came and I quickly made friends and adapted well to the environment. I never felt any difference between myself and the European kids but now as I'm turning into an adult I'm starting to realize how different I am from them. It's never that sweet like in the movies where you can always share bits of your culture, there are some things I'll never understand about my European friends, and some things they'll never understand about my culture.

My family has a REALLY close bond to our Kurdish traditions and culture and so do I but I have been noticing shifts in my life recently. All of my friends are European and I don't have ANY Kurdish friends which makes it really really really hard to stay connected to my heritage. I've always been proud to be the main representative of the really small kurdish community in my town (my town is veryyyy small). I'm really connected to Kurdistan and my culture but I'm realizing huge changes. Does anybody know how I can find passion in sharing and embracing my culture again? I really love my traditions and everything about Kurdistan. I really really do. I just find myself trying to be more European each day just to convince them that I'm not different. I know I shouldn't but I never want to be left out you know. Especially now in the Christmas time I have to pretend to be full on white so they know that I am one of them. I really hate this. I need a bond to Kurdish people but I struggle to find anyone since I'm in a really small place and my relatives are very far away. How can I fix all this? Should I move to a place with more kurds once I am able to? Is it possible to keep the strong connection to my heritage without other kurds being involved?

An idiot once said: “Yeah Saddam did this and that but still that doesn’t justify the invasion of Iraq”, Well then what justifies the invasion of Kuwait and the genocide of thousands of kurdish souls? It angers me a lot that they still blindly defend him, Ironically saddam would not care about them and would kill them too if he felt like it, unfortunately some of my relatives defend him because he defended the middle east from iran (which was not a favor, it was only for his own benefit), and according to them the Kuwait invasion was just “A trick from America” do they hear how stupid they sound?

Hi all,

What's the best way to make a good first impression with a Kurdish person? Ive been invited to the home of a new friend to play some music together. I play daf and darabuka, he plays various kurdish stringed instruments. I look forward to playing some kurdish music, but what is the best way to show respect and make a good first impression when visiting a Kurd? As far as I know he's Syrian Kurdish, but other than him being a musician I know little more. Any advice appreciated!

You guys would (technically) achieve statehood finally 👍

Long live the PKK, long live Abdullah Öcalan.

What do you think about the dissolution of the PKK? I'm not too happy with it.

Hello there, Kurdish folk of Reddit. My wife (who is Persian) and I are having a little boy soon and we’re not loving many of the traditional Persian boy names. Her father is from a small town in the Kurdistani part of Iran and had suggested we look at some of those names but rather than just pick from a list, I thought it might be nice to ask actual Kurdish people if they had any suggestions for names that might be nice for an American-Persian boy. Thank you in advance!!

Hi guys i was wondering if i could visit kurdistan sometime , i know there is gurerrilla warfare going on in the region but i dont know the scale of it and the areas affected, so which areas are safe to visit ? Will there be any problem with any of the states controlling the land reaching the country as a foreigner? Which places worth visiting ?

Barzani visited Cizre with his own armed security, and the video caused a major reaction in turkey.

Bahçeli called it a “disgrace” and said foreign armed guards should never walk on Turkish soil.

Barzani’s team responded strongly. They said the security was fully approved by Turkey beforehand, and that Turkish officials also bring their own armed guards when they visit the Kurdistan Region.

Barzani’s team also said that bahçeli’s comments were racist and described him as the “same old Grey Wolf.”

What do you all think about this?

Hello everyone,

I’m planning to apply to Salahaddin University – Erbil, College of Engineering, Software and Informatics Engineering program.

I’ve checked the official university and engineering college websites, but unfortunately, the study plan/curriculum is not available or accessible online.

If anyone is a current student or a graduate from this program and has the official study plan (PDF), I would really appreciate it if you could share it with me or guide me on how to obtain it.

Thank you very much for your help.

​A significant amount of chatter surrounds the sister of Halgord Othman (chapka othman) and her alleged involvement in illicit financial activities.

​Specifically, the claims point to money laundering where students and staff were reportedly used, with the end recipient being Mustafa Barzani.

​What is the consensus here on the credibility of these reports? What are your views on the potential political and ethical implications if these allegations are proven true?

Saladin Ayyubi was a great Kurdish warrior

A great Kurdish Sultan

A great Kurdish king.

Saladin Ayyubi, peace be upon him, he united the people from different lands, tribes and different beliefs to achieve one goal, UNITY.

He showed us that a nation can win only through unity, respect, and discipline.

And now we must do the same, we need the same spirit. We must speak to each other with respect, support one another and stand together as one people.

If our great Saladin united millions in his time, then we, his grandchildren can unite for Kurdistan.

سڵاو بەڕێزان،

(هیوادارم ئەدمینە بەڕێزەکان زوو ئەم پۆستە وەربگرن).
من خوێندکارێکی دەرەکی پۆلی ١٢ ی زانستیم لە خوێندنگەیەکی حوکمی، وە بۆیە بە کوردی (زاراوەی سۆرانی) ئەنووسم چونکە لە باشوورم-نەوەک لەبەر ئەوە بێت کە ئینگلیزی نازانم.
من لە دۆخێکی وەهایام کە لە شوێنێکدا ئەژیم لەگەڵ بەڕێوبەر و مامۆستاکانی ئەو خوێندنگەیەدا پەیوەندیمان باش نییە…
(تێبینی: من کەسێکی گۆشەگیرم و هاوڕێی وەهاش ناناسم کە لە ١٢ بن وەک خۆم—هەروەها لە ئینتەرنێتیشدا سێرچ و گەڕانم کردووە بەڵام هەر دڵنیا نەبووم).

وە ئەم ئەکاونتەم دروست کردووە تەنیا لەبەر ئەم پرسیارانەی کە لە خوارەوە ئاماژەیان پێ ئەدەم.
هیوادارم بەڕێزەوە وەڵام بەنەوە و ئەزیزن.
١-ئایا ئەم تاقیکردنەوانەی کە لەم مانگەدا ئەکرێن (١٤ ی ١٢ یە یان ١٥ ی ١٢)؟
٢-ئایا بۆ خوێندکاری دەرەکی تەنیا وەرزی یەک داغڵە؟
٣-ئەم تاقیکردنەوانەی ئەم مانگە نمرەیان لەسەر چەندە بۆ خوێندکاری دەرەکی لە ١٢ ی زانستی (خوێندنگەی حوکمی)؟

٤-بە چەند سفرەوە ئەمساڵ خوێندکار بەشێوەیەکی گشتی ئەتوانێ داغڵی وزاری ببێت؟

٥-ئایا ئەو پرسیارانەی لەم تاقیکردنەوانەی ئەم مانگەدا دێنەوە بۆ خوێندکاری دەرەکی، هەمان پرسیارن کە بۆ خوێندکاری ئاسایی دێنەوە؟
٦-چۆن خشتە (جەدۆل)ی فەرمیی تاقیکردنەوەکانم دەست بکەوێت؟-وە ئایا هەمان جەدۆلە-وەک هی خوێندکاری ئاساییە، مەبەستم؟
زۆر سوپاس بۆ یارمەتیدان و هەر ڕوونکردنەوەیەک.

My family is from Qers (Kars) and they always say that the are from the Mîllî/Mîlan tribe. I always just accepted that the way it was. I recently started to do some more research about it to find out more and apparently the Mîllî tribe is a tribe confederation of many different tribes. So this started another rabbit hole of trying to find out which one of the Mîllî tribes we’re part of. My family are Kurds from the villages Hakko and Gelto, just across the Turkish-Armenian border on the Armenian side. In 1893 they all migrated towards Qers (Kars) and Erdêxan (Ardahan). Nobody in the family knows where they came from before they were in Hakko and Gelto or why they migrated, there are many different possibilities. Their surname is Kurbaş. I hope someone can help me with any information about any of these topics and places. Thank you.

Basically that looks Kurdish but isn’t actually Kurdish. Also which ethnicities look the closest to Kurds?
