No one knows how Iraqi Kurdish President Masoud Barzani will act, either in asserting independence or in strengthening the Kurds’ grip on the disputed city and province of Kirkuk. While voting was brisk in some areas — authorities claimed 72% turnout overall — enthusiasm was not universal. “Turnout in Sulaymaniyah wasn’t high, partly because people saw it more as a Barzani project and partly because Beyond containment.

  • The Kurdish Connection: Israel, ISIS and US
    The Kurdish Connection: Israel, ISIS and U.S. Efforts to Destabilize Iran Syrian Kurds claim to be fighting against terror as they strive for autonomy, a goal that they have yet to achieve even after decades of effort. But their efforts are being co-opted by Western powers that are using them to achieve their own ends in the Middle East. By Sarah Abed Region: Middle East & North Africa Global Research, July 16, 2017 Theme: Media Disinformation, Militarization MintPress News 14 July 2017 and WMD, Terrorism, US NATO War Agenda In-depth Report: IRAN: THE NEXT WAR?, IRAQ REPORT, SYRIA SYRIA (Analysis)– In Part I of independent analyst Sarah Abed’s three-part analysis for MintPress News, Abed began exposing the modern day Kurdish/Israeli alliance that both parties have tried to keep hidden in order to avoid drawing the public’s attention to their ultimate plan, as well as the U.S.’ use of Kurdish factions in destabilizing the Middle East. The Kurds have engaged in such relationships in part because of internal divisions and disunity, which have also made it difficult to fulfill their goal of establishing a fully autonomous Kurdistan spanning over the four countries they currently occupy. We also examined the Syrian government’s attempts at keeping the country united by addressing and implementing constitutional changes that benefit the Kurds – attempts that have still failed to convince separatist Kurds to abandon their goal of Balkanizing and illegally confiscating parts of Syria at the cost of the people who reside there. Read Part I below The Kurds: Washington’s Weapon of Mass Destabilization in the Middle East By Sarah Abed, July 14, 2017 *** Part II examines this topic in greater depth in hopes of raising awareness of this little-known but imperative part of the Syrian puzzle.

AROUND THE WORLD IN 14 FILMS HAUPTSPONSOR AROUND THE WORLD IN 14 FILMS UNSER SCHIRMHERR Liebe Filmfreundinnen und Filmfreunde, „Around the World in 14 Films“ ist nach inzwischen zehn erfolgreichen Jahren zu einem kleinen Juwel in der deutschen Filmlandschaft geworden. Alljährlich hat das Festivalpublikum in nur wenigen Tagen die einzigartige Gelegenheit, viele Regionen der Erde zu bereisen – und das bequem vom Kinosessel aus. Auch in diesem Jahr holt das Festivalteam wieder junges Weltkino nach Berlin, darunter Beiträge aus Israel, Kurdistan, der Türkei, aus Russland und dem Iran – Ländern und Regionen, die derzeit auch politisch im Fokus stehen. Das Festival lädt uns ein, einmal hinter die Schlagzeilen zu blicken, die uns beinahe täglich aus vielen dieser Regionen erreichen. Es ermöglicht uns, die Menschen dort besser kennenzulernen ebenso wie das, was sie bewegt, was uns trennt, was uns verbindet. Selten gelingt eine so schöne Mischung von Filmkunst und Verständigung wie bei „Around the World in 14 Films“. Zum zweiten Mal findet das Festival nun schon im Kino in der KulturBrauerei statt. Das zeigt, dass es mitten in der lebendigen Kulturszene Berlins angekommen ist. Auch die Zusammenarbeit mit ARTE hat sich als überaus erfolgreich erwiesen, so dass mittlerweile die Hälfte der Festivalbeiträge ARTE-Koproduktionen sind. Ich freue mich über diesen Erfolg und wünsche auch der diesjährigen Festivalausgabe, dass sie uns viele bereichernde Eindrücke und Erfahrungen schenkt. Dr. Frank-Walter Steinmeier Bundesminister des Auswärtigen UNSER FESTIVAL Liebe Filmfreundinnen und Filmfreunde, herzlich willkommen zu unserer elften Kino-Weltreise AROUND THE WORLD IN 14 FILMS.

  • Kurdische Filmtage Vom 14. – 20.9. 2017 Im Filmforum Höchst
    09.09.2017 Kurdische Filmtage vom 14. – 20.9. 2017 im Filmforum Höchst Haus ohne Dach Dil Leyla Gülistan – Land of Roses Die Präsentation anderer Kulturen befördert das Verständnis und das Zusammenleben. Der Film und das Kino sind die idealen Botschafter einer Weltkultur, weshalb im Filmforum Höchst Wert darauf gelegt wird, auch Filme aus aller Welt zu präsentieren. Auch in diesem Jahr bietet das Filmforum Höchst wieder der kurdischen Filmkultur einen (Kino-) Raum. In Zusammen- arbeit mit „Amara – Kurdischer Frauenrat Frankfurt“ werden Filme und FilmemacherInnen aus den vier kurdischen Regionen in der Türkei, dem Nordirak, des Iran und aus dem kurdischen Teil Syriens präsentiert. Trotz der großen Schwierigkeiten durch Krieg und Repression gelingt es den Filmschaffenden immer wieder Filme zu produzieren – weltweit auf Festivals ausgezeichnet - und so ihre Kultur und ihre Situation sichtbar zu machen. Bemerkenswert bei vielen Filmen ist die künstlerische und gesellschaftliche Teilhabe der kurdischen Frauen. Gezeigt werden acht neue Langfilme und einige Kurzfilme, einige laufen als süddeutsche Premieren. Die Hälfte der gezeigten Arbeiten sind Dokumentarfilme. Eröffnet wird die Filmwoche am 14. September um 17.30 Uhr mit kurdischem Buffet - und Musik, um 18.30 wird der Film Haus ohne Dach gezeigt, um 20.30 Uhr ist die Regisseurin Asli Özarslan mit ihrem Dokumentarfilm Dil Leyla persönlich zu Gast im Filmforum. In Dil Leyla wird die in Deutschland aufgewachsene Leyla Imret porträtiert, die mit 26 Jahren die jüngste Bürgermeisterin der Türkei in der kurdischen Stadt Cizre wird. Der Film zeigt Leylas Wahlkampf, ihre Arbeit als Bürgermeisterin bis zu ihrer Verhaftung und der brutalen Zerstörung von Cizre durch die Armee.

  • Theorising Women and War in Kurdistan. a Feminist and Critical Perspective
    Theorising Women and War in Kurdistan. A feminist and critical perspective. Nazand Begikhani, Wendelmoet Hamelink and Nerina Weiss Abstract In this introductory article to the special issue Women and War in Kurdistan, we connect our topic to feminist theory, to anthropological theory on war and conflict and their long-term consequences, and to theory on gender, nation and (visual) representation. We investigate Kurdish women´s victimisation and marginalisation, but also their resistance and agency as female combatants and women activists, their portrayal by media and scholars, and their self- representation. We offer herewith a critical perspective on militarisation, women´s liberation, and women´s experiences in times of war and peace. We also introduce the five articles in this issue and discuss how they contribute to the study of women and war in two main areas: the wide- reaching effects of war on women’s lives, and the gendered representation and images of war in Kurdistan. Keywords: female combatants, feminism, feminist theory, gender and nation, human rights, militarism, representation, sexual violence, victimhood, visualisation, war, women’s activism, women´s movements Introduction This special issue contributes to critical and empirical-based analyses of the present realities of Kurdish women in all parts of Kurdistan and explores the multiple effects and affects of war on women in the Kurdish regions. In doing so, we follow feminist and intersectional approaches to the study of violence and war. Readers might need to be reminded that Kurdistan is not a geographical entity with defined borders and Kurds are straddling the present state boundaries of Turkey, Syria, Iraq, Iran (Dahlman, 2002).

ABSTRACT The division of Kurds among the countries of Turkey, Iraq, Iran, and Syria after World War I resulted in a fragmented identity and affected the development of the Kurdish language and literature. Consequently, in their novels Kurdish writers focus on questions of identity, such as “who you are” and “where you come from.” My research discusses the novels of two Kurdish authors—Kae Bahar’s Letters from a Kurd and Yaser Kemal’s Memed, My Hawk—who lived in different countries, namely, Turkey and Iraq. This study explores, from a post-colonial point of view, how the novelists represented the fight against oppression in distinct ways due to their different geographical-cultural circumstances.
