The America-Kurdistan Friendship League condemns Turkey's shelling of the Kurdish
| The America-Kurdistan Friendship League condemns Turkey's shelling of the Kurdish Villages and crossing into Iraq's northern Kurdish region in a bid to crack-down on Kurdish rebels who are battling Ankara. It condemns any violence in the region and urges Turkey to adopt a peaceful and political approach to resolving the Kurdish question within Turkey. Furthermore, we call upon Turkey to withdraw its troops from the Kurdish Region immediately. The AKFL calls upon President Bush to intervene and to find a peaceful resolution to the conflict by encouraging dialogue among Turkey, KRG, and Iraq. Ignoring the Kurdish issue and allowing Turkey to invade Kurdistan could cause instability and violence in the only stable part of the Iraq and also, it could spread the conflict to Turkey, Iran, and Syria. The AKFL urges the US administration and the world community to put an end to maintaining the status quo or ignoring the Kurdish question in the Middle East. The AKFL considers any comprehensive peace deal in the Middle East to be destined for failure if it does not address the Kurdish issue. It is now necessary to address the fate of 40 millions Kurds living in the region at the same intensity as that being provided to other nations.
