And as you are invaded and violated, so you subconsciously revenge yourself by invading and violating others over whom you have authority or can exercise compulsion. physical or moral. In this way all life has become a crazy quilt of authority, of domination and submission, of command and obedience, of coercion and subjection, of rulers and ruled, of violence and force in a thousand and one forms. -- Alexander Berkman

PKK Burns Weapons in Bid for Integration Into Reactionary States
Following a call from PKK leader, Abdullah รcalan, to lay down its arms, the PKK held a disarmament ceremony in southern Kurdistan (northern Iraq) on July 11th.
Besรช Hozat, co-chair of the KCK (Kurdistan Communities Union) Executive Council, led the group of 15 male and 15 female guerrillas who burned their weapons and belts.
Speaking at the historic ceremony, Besรช Hozat said: โWe are taking this step in response to Leader Apoโs call, the February 27 call, and the decisions of the PKKโs 12th Congress.โ
Kurdish militants want to return to Turkey and enter mainstream politics, one of the PKKโs joint leaders told AFP on Friday after the groupโs fighters began destroying their arms at the ceremony.
Speaking to AFP after handing in her own weapon alongside 29 of her comrades, the Kurdistan Workersโ Partyโs top female commander Bese Hozat said if Turkey were willing, the disarmament process could be completed very quickly.
But the 47-year-old militant also warned the fragile peace process risked being derailed if Ankara fails to free the PKKโs jailed founder Abdullah Ocalan, also known as โApoโ โ Kurdish for โuncleโ.
โIf Apo were freed tomorrow andโฆ Turkey made legal and constitutional arrangements the next day, within a week we could return to engageโ in bourgeois state politics, she said of a process which Ankara expects to last for months.
Hozat said it was essential Turkey put in place mechanisms to allow them to return without fear of prosecution or reprisal.
โWe do not want to wage armed struggle against Turkey, we want to come to Turkey and do democratic politics. In order for usโฆ to achieve democratic integration with Turkey, it is imperative we can freely travel to Turkey,โ she said.
โIf Turkey takes concrete steps, enacts laws and implements radical legal reformsโฆ we will go to Turkey and engage in politics. If (not)โฆ we will end up either in prison or being killed.โ
Asked whether she now expected Turkey and its Western allies to remove the PKK from their blacklists of terrorist organisations, Hozat said the issue was irrelevant.
โRight now, the PKK no longer exists, weโve dissolved it. We are a freedom movement.. advocating for peace and a democratic society.
โThe PKK has achieved its main goal: the existence of the Kurds has been recognised.โ
The PKK dissolution represents a severe turning point for internationalist politics, as the organization that permitted revolutionary collusion in the region speed walks its way into collaborationist politics.
Democratic integration into Turkish politics is essentially an oxymoron as class politics and reactionary parties dominate the state.
Furthermore, the PKKโs posture in Syria has also drifted into collaboration as the new regime continues its massacres and clearly settles into a riole as a gendarme for US and Zionist imperial schemes. The PKKโs attempt to join this regime is damning, even if minor concessions are wrangled out in the negotations.

There should be an episode of every Star Trek where the whole ship falls apart because Scottie, Geordi, Miles, and B'Elanna have been repeatedly forced to do a two day job in two hours.
Or a whole series called, "Space Dock," where the poor Star Fleet engineering corps toil to fix the gaffer tape and string solutions those maniacs in the officer class have done.

Geordi (going through checklist): Alien baby thought ship was its mother, check. Shipโs computer became sentient, check. Holodeck character *also* became sentient, check and check. Hm. What about when an ancient mask turned the ship into an ancient temple, is that just an โotherโ?
Denaturalizing is serious business, I know we already do it sometimes but it should only be done if the person commits felonies, not because they criticized Israel or offended Trump
Even with all those incentive dollars, tax breaks, and innumerable concessions this will always be what happens. Governments are captured by corporate money, power and influence and then governments give away the people's wealth and corporations take.
