Kobani: Letter to US Elected Representa​tives


Written on October 6, 2014 by Editor in ISIS, Kobane, Kurd news, Kurdistan, Rojava, USA


By Dr Amir Sharifi:Kobane

As a concerned American, I am writing to you to urge you to stand with the people and defenders of Kobani in the Kurdish region of Syria in the face of the ISIS brutal battle for the capture and control of the city. As you know the U. S. action against ISIS, could change the course of history of the region by preventing ISIS from ravaging and vanquishing the ancient Middle Eastern civilizations. We all recall how the ISIS savagely attacked innocent civilians including Christians in Mosul and Yazidis in Shingal, creating an unprecedented tragedy in Iraq. The world community cannot afford to wait any longer while the ISIS terrorists are on their way to obliterate the entire livelihood of the people of different faiths and ethnicities in the Middle East and the rest of the world. The city of Kobane has been surrounded for almost two week; the latest reports indicate that the city is under heavy bombardment and parts of the city may have fallen. If democratic nations fail to provide immediate military support to Kurdish fighters, Kobane will suffer the same tragic fate as Shingal.

Dear senator, Kurds as advocates for democracy are paying a high price for their fight against the vicious forces of the Islamic State. As the champion of democracy and humanity, our government has a moral responsibility to help the besieged Kurds who are desperate for our help. Their fight against ISIS is an integral part of the global war against terror and hence deserves our. Our government should also denounce and stop the complicity of governments such as Turkey whose support for the ISIS has contributed to the spread of terrorism and undermined the effectiveness of the coalition battle against ISIS aggression. The capture of Kobani will not solve the Kurdish issue in Turkey, but will only enable the ISIS to pose a greater threat to both the peoples of the region and American interests in the Middle East.

For these reasons, I strongly urge you to support the defenders of Kobani before another massacre takes place. Without such a support, there will undoubtedly be another humanitarian catastrophe in Kobane.

Cordially

Dr.Amir Sharifi, President of the Kurdish American Education Society
