The Associated Press: Turkey works on plan regarding Kurdish conflict
ANKARA, Turkey — Turkey's government said Wednesday it is prepared to grant more rights to the nation's Kurds in an effort to end the 25-year insurgency by Kurdish rebels.
But Interior Minister Besir Atalay provided no details of the plan and despite his conciliatory language the challenge of persuading thousands of Kurdish rebels to lay down their arms is likely to be long and difficult.
The rebels want an unconditional amnesty that includes their leaders, but the government has said it had no plans to expand laws that enable lower-ranking rebels to avoid prison by renouncing their past and sharing intelligence.
Kurdish activists have said imprisoned rebel leader Abdullah Ocalan will announce a "roadmap" to end the conflict ahead of Aug. 15, the date when the guerrillas first took up arms in 1984. They are fighting for autonomy in Turkey's southeast, and the conflict that has killed tens of thousands of people. Many of the insurgents' attacks are launched from hideouts in northern Iraq.
Turkey has refused talks with the rebel group _the Kurdistan Workers Party — but has acknowledged that military action alone will not end the conflict. The United States and the European Union have joined Turkey in labeling the group a terrorist organization.
"Come on and join this process, let's solve this problem that has cost so much and seized our future," Atalay said at a nationally televised news conference Wednesday. "We have the intention to take determined, patient and courageous steps."
He said the government was working on a plan to give more rights to Kurds, and he invited opposition parties and institutions to contribute to a national consensus.
Atalay did not give a timeframe for a Kurdish initiative, saying details would be disclosed by Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan. Under pressure from the EU, Turkey has granted greater cultural rights to Kurds, including the launch earlier this year of a 24-hour television channel broadcasting in the once-banned Kurdish language.
Private NTV television said Wednesday that the government's plan may include moves to allow the use of Kurdish names for thousands of villages whose names had been changed to Turkish, allow Kurdish prisoners to speak in their mother tongue during prison visits, expand Kurdish language broadcasts to private TV stations and set up Kurdish language faculties.
Some Kurds welcomed the government's initiative.
"We will fulfill our responsibilities," said Sirri Sakik, a lawmaker from the pro-Kurdish Democratic Society Party. "It is the common problem of everyone living in this country."
But the party's leader, Ahmet Turk, insisted that Turkey must end its military drive against the rebels.
"Operations must stop," Turk said. "The problem is multidimensional and no time should be wasted."
Mehmet Emin Aktar, the head of the Bar Association in the largely Kurdish southeastern city of Diyarbakir, said: "No one has patience for more blood and tears."
Turkey's far-right Nationalist Action Party accused the government of offering concessions.
"This initiative threatens the future of Turkey. It is dividing the country along ethnic lines and preparing the ground for negotiations with the terrorists," said Oktay Vural, a senior lawmaker of the Action Party. "The more demands are met, the more they will ask for."

“Transforming Every House into a School”:Abdullah Demirbas, Mayor of Sur District, Diyarbakir - Turkey
Kurdish Herald Vol. 1 Issue 3, July 2009 - Interview conducted by Servet Tosun for Kurdish Herald in Diyarbakir, Turkey.
Diyarbakir, Turkey – Diyarbakir’s Sur District Mayor Abdullah Demirbas is one of the most significant figures with regards to his great emphasis on Kurdish culture and language. I visited him at his office to talk about his recent project called “Sere seve Cirokek u her malek Dibistane,” (A Story for each night and every house is a School).
Despite being deposed from his duty as a mayor for promoting “Multilingual Municipality Service,” he was re-elected by the people. Mayor Demirbas is persistently and passionately working for the preservation of Kurdish culture..
Kurdish Herald: What is the purpose of placing emphasis on preserving the mother tongue through your recent project? To whom do you want to reach out with your project? What are your expectations from it?
Abdullah Demirbas, Mayor of Sur District, Diyarbakir
Mayor Demirbas: As an educator and sociologist, I see the importance of culture and language. Educating a person with his or her mother tongue helps to develop his psychology and cognitivity. People who grow up freely can interact with their society more easily and are more functional. Therefore, forbiddances of any language or culture have negative consequences on a person.
Researches’ results have shown that a person who learns his or her mother tongue can learn a second language better and is academically more successful and compatible with his or her society. Municipalities have a mission of educating and informing society and preparing people for their future. An important part of this mission is to develop communication among people so that they can be a part of society. This would also help reduce the number of problems that occur with the process of urbanization [in Turkey].
For years, Kurds have been the victim of Turkish state ideology. People in Turkey (regardless of ethnicity) have grown up with a uniform way-of-life. Our Sur Municipality has initiated an alternative education model called “Transforming Every House into to a School.” In this project, ‘stories’ are our main tools. Stories have positive effects on the development of children. If parents tell stories to their children before they sleep, it can help shape the socialization of children. Stories propagate history and culture to the future generations. In so doing, stories disseminate good types of behaviors that are desired by all societies.
The Turkish state ideology has prohibited the Kurds, Armenians, Assyrians, and other ethnic groups from learning their own languages at schools. If we wait for the state to take a step to allow us to learn our mother tongue at schools, it might be too late. We should realize that homes are only places where the state cannot easily occupy. With this project, we can show the Turkish state that nobody can stop us from learning our mother tongue, and we will always try to find alternatives against the state’s suppression. Therefore, our project’s theme is focused on the phrase, “Sere seve Cirokek u her malek Dibistane,” (A Story for each night and every house is a School).
Kurdish Herald: How did you come up with this idea? Which culture or ethnic group did you choose for the project other than Kurdish stories?
Mayor Demirbas: This project was initially prepared by a Kurdish writer, Selim Temo. It is a unique project in terms of its originality and its mission. It consists of 365 stories. We divided these stories by months and made them into 12 fascicules. Every night, each story tells us about life of an important Kurdish figure such as Ahmede Xani, Melaye Ciziri, Dr. Qasimlo, Mullah Mustafa Barzani, Abdulqadire Geylani, Seide Kurdi and others. We also included Armenian and Assyrian stories in these books. These stories will be published as fascicules and will be broadcasted in the near future. We will also make audio version of the stories with professional storytellers so that people can access them over the Internet. Stories will also be made available to people with hearing disabilities.
We planned and developed this project before I was confronted with the deposition of my official duty as a mayor at Sur Municipality in 2007 due to my “Multilingual Municipality Service.” Because of the deposition, our project remained unfinished. However, we started to work on it after I was re-elected by our people. We published a magazine called “Semamok” in five different languages and it contains short comical stories called “fikra,” puzzles and other stories.
As you know, the success of education should be measured with a long-term vision. We will see the results of this project in 10-15 years. People will educate their children with their own language and culture as free citizens so that they will be more productive in the future. With this project, we should not be limited to teach our children their language only by telling stories. We also intend to develop new interactions between parents and children, and families to neighbors so that it will help people integrate in the modern city life. In this sense, our city will witness positive outcomes from this model. As I mentioned before, not only does this project embrace the Kurds, but it also covers Armenians, Chaldeans, Assyrians, Turkmens, Arabs, Turks and other ethnic groups.
Kurdish Herald: Can you tell us the financial aspects of your project? What kind of difficulties have you encountered during the preparation of the project? What kind of assistance do you further need?
Mayor Demirbas: For this project we have used our own financial resources and also received help from Kurdish Institute Flemish Culture Ministry in Brussels. We still need a lot of support for this project. For example, we would like to publish 15,000 - instead of 5,000 - story books. We would like to reach people more easily and convince them to participate in our project. In Yuksekova [a town in Hakkari], a Kurdish cultural organization called “Kurdi-Der” came up with a new idea in which their members attend weddings, inform people about our project, and distribute books to grooms and brides as gifts. A nine-year old Kurdish girl at Kurdi-Der particularly liked this project and has created a classroom with ten students and has taught them all Kurdish. Our municipality supported her and attended a symbolic “grade report ceremony” of this class. We want to show that we are ready to help anyone who involves themselves with our project and transforms his or her house into a school.
Kurdish Herald: How is state approaching this project? How is their attitude?
Mayor Demirbas: The Turkish state dismissed my official duty as a mayor because of our Multilingual Municipality Service, but now governorship of Diyarbakir and the government are using our project. Now the government has opened a Kurdish TV program, TRT 6. Diyarbakir Governorship has established a call center in Kurdish. The ones who once dismissed us initially are using our project now. History shows that we were right. Had we not fought for it, these things would never have happened.
I believe that if we succeed in transforming a house into a school, the state will try to find a way to teach Kurdish at schools just to stop us. In that way, they will be forced to change their policies. Therefore, we need not only economic support but also active involvement of people in order to accomplish our goal.
The way in which the state approaches this project is not very different from how it treats other Kurdish cultural works. After we published books for our project, the state opened various allegations against us. For example, there are twenty-three prison sentences against me for total ninety-eight years of imprisonment. The main charge in these accusations is an alleged act against the Turkish Alphabet and violation of Article 3 and Article 42 of the Turkish constitution. Article 3 states that the state’s official language is Turkish and prohibits the use of any other language. Article 42 states that the state’s education language is only Turkish and prohibits any other language. When I attended the symbolic “grade report ceremony” of the nine-year old Kurdish girl, the Diyarbakir education administrator accused me of illegal conducts. In reference to our project, he described to the media that education cannot be given in homes. The Turkish State ideology does not even have the patience for education.
The state has averted the development of the education in Kurdish language by closing madrassas in the past, but Kurdish stories and music have helped the Kurdish language to survive. Therefore, we will re-establish our education system with this project, and we hope that the Kurdish language will live forever.

Kurdish faculty plans making smooth progress
MARDİN - Preparations for a Kurdish language and literature faculty in the southeastern province of Mardin’s Artuklu University are making smooth progress, says professor Serdar Bedii Omay, the rector of the university. He says the ambitious project has the backing of Mardin’s business community and philanthropists, as well as that of the government Preliminary preparations have been completed for the launch of a Kurdish language and literature faculty at Artuklu University in the southeastern province of Mardin.
The school, one of 23 founded approximately two years ago, is aiming to be "the Middle East’s greatest social-science university." It takes its name from the Artuqid dynasty, which left much historical heritage to the city. A faculty of Syriac language and literature will also be established on campus.
A mosque, a chapel and a Yezidi temple
Prof. Serdar Bedii Omay, the university’s rector, said the campus will be built on about 1,060 acres of land along the Mardin-Diyarbakır highway. Omay said they plan to finish construction in five years and are receiving great support from Mardin’s business community and philanthropists, as well as from the government.
Currently, students in the architecture and engineering faculties are studying at Dicle University in Diyarbakır. The rector said they have hired 50 research assistants for the science and literature faculty, adding that the campus will be in harmony with the history of Mardin and its multilingual and multi-religious background.
The campus will contain a mosque, a Syriac chapel and a small Yezidi temple."Historically, Mardin has been the primary university center of upper Mesopotamia, a city that was home to 13 centers of learning in the 19th century. This tradition of science will live again on our campus," Omay said, adding that the university is a 30-year-old dream come true for Mardin residents.
The rector said they have determined the vision and horizon of Artuklu University as a social-sciences university and are hoping it will grow into an international educational institution, offering courses in languages used in the Middle East. The science and literature faculty will feature Kurdish, Arabic, Persian and Syriac departments.
Omay said they will first emphasize Kurdish and Syriac, languages to which not enough attention has been paid. "Syriac is a language spoken in our region. At the forefront, work is in progress for founding the Kurdish language and literature faculty," he said. "We have completed the preliminary preparations and will apply to the Supreme Board of Education for approval."
The rector added that they will establish the faculty this year after final approval is obtained and that they plan to accept 20 students in 2010. Artuklu University has signed agreements with Dohuk and Kerkük Universities in northern Iraq for Kurdish-language education and with Damascus University in Syria for education in Arabic. In exchange, Artuklu will collaborate with those universities to establish their Turkish language and literature faculties.
According to Asst. Prof. Selim Temo Ergül, who will be part of the Kurdish language and literature faculty, Kurdish has four dialects: Kirmanci, Sorani, Zazaki and Gorani. He added that classical Kurdish literature dates back to the seventh century and features works in various forms that have been adapted to modern literature. Ergül said that the faculty will feature master and doctorate divisions, adding, "By all means, we are ready for education."

kurmancî weke xerc û çîmentoya yekîtiya di navbera perçeyên Kurdistanê de ye Kulturname#more-1971
Şeş saziyên kurdî li Ewropayê nameyek ji serokên çar saziyên desthilatê li başûrê Kurdistanê re li ser pirsgirêka kurdiyê di zimanê perwerdeyê de hinart. Ew di vê nameya xwe de ji desthilata siyasî ya Kurdistanê dixwazin ku ew li hemî zaravayan wek hev bi xwedî derbikeve. Ev name di 20/5 2009-ê de hatiye şandin û niha ketiye ber çavên raya giştî. Em li jêr teksta wê diweşînin:
Ji Serokê Dewleta Federal a Îraqê birêz Celal Talebanî
Ji Serokê Herêma Kurdistanê birêz Mesûd Barzanî
Ji Serokê Wezîrê Hikûmeta Herêma Kurdistanê birêz Nêçîrvan Barzanî
Ji Serokê Parlemena Kurdistanê birêz Ednan Muftî
Li ser biryara Wezîrê Perwede yê Herêma Kurdistanê gelek dezgeh, sazî, komele û malperên Başûrê Kurdistanê nerazîbûn, daxwaz û hêviyên xwe bi nameyeke vekirî ji we birêzan re şandin û herweha ji raya giştî re jî diyar kirin. Ji xwe berê jî pirsa perwerdeya bi zaravayê kurmancî çend caran ketibû rojevê. Lê weha xuya ye ku heta vê gavê çareseriyek maqûl ji vê pirsgirêkê re nehatiyê dîtin û loma jî gelek sazî, dezgeh, komele û malperên Başûrê welatê me bi awayekî eşkere û vekirî ev pirsgirêk dîsa anîn holê.
Em ev dezgeh û komeleyên demokratîk yên kurdan ku navên wan li jêr in, daxwaza hemwelatiyên kurd yên di warê maf û bikaranîna zaravayê xwe yê kurmancî de, mafekî herî xwezayî, rewa û demokratîk dibînin. Bi vê munasebetê, em jî dixwazin bîr û baweriyên xwe; daxwaz û hêviyên xwe bi kurtayî pêşkêşî we hêjayan bikin:
1. Zimanê kurdî ji gelek zaravayên cihê pêk tê. Ev bingeh û rastiya tevna zimanê kurdî ye. Her zaravayek reng û dewlemendiyeke vî zimanî ye. Her zarava li gor xwe xwedî girîngî û taybetiyan e.Divê em li wan weke hev xwedî derkevin; delîve û firsendê bidin hemû zaravayan da ku bikaribin, bi awakî giştî di her warê jiyanê de û bi taybetî jî, di warê perwedeyê û statuya resmî de xwe pêşve bibin.
2. Mafê tu zaravayî ne kêm û ne jî zêdeyî mafên zaravayekî din e. Mafê her zaravayî ye ku di warê perwerde, bikaranîna daîreyên resmî yên Kurdistanê de behremend bibe. Bi tenê bi vî awayî em ê bikaribin bi awayekî giştî zimanê kurdî û bi taybetî jî zaravayên kurdî ji tehlûke, tatolek û xetera hejarî û jiholêrabûnê rizgar bikin.
3. Eger em di vî warî de siyaseteke neteweyî, demokratîk û xweşbînî nemeşînin, tirsa me ew e ku ev birîneke nû û kûr di laşê milletê Kurd de veke. Herweha ev dikare bibe delîve û firsetek ku dijminên milletê me ji vê rewşê îstifade bikin.
4. Piraniya kurdên ji her çar perçeyên Kurdistanê bi zaravayê kurmancî dipeyivin. Loma jî kurmancî weke xerc û çîmentoya yekîtiya di navbera perçeyên Kurdistanê de ye. Divê em vê rastiyê bidin ber çavan û tu zirarê nedin bingeha vê hevbeşiyê. Bê hebûna kurmancî yekîtiya milletê kurd nikare bê ava kirin.
5. Ev daxwaz, bi îdîayên “zimanê resmî û yekgirtî” tê bergirî kirin ku ev îdîa ne îdîayeke rewa û ne jî di cih de ye.Ew kesên ku ji bo zarokên xwe zaravayê soranî wek mafekî rewa dibînin, çima ji bo zarokên ku bi kurmancî, hewramanî yan jî zazakî dipeyivin wek mafekî rewa nabînin?Madem ku hinek dewlet di karûbarên xwe yên resmî û perwerdeyê de xwedî gelek ziman in, ji bo çi li beşekî welatê me yê azad, Hikûmeta Herêma Kurdistanê ne xwediyê zaravayên kurdî be û nikaribe vî mafê xwezayî û demokratîk bide hemwelatiyên xwe!
6. Di warê ziman û zaravayên kurdî de, divê em xwedî siyaseteke li gor şert û mercên welat û milletê Kurd bin. Pêşdexistin û nêzîkkirina zaravayên kurdî divê li gor pêvajoyeke xwezayî, wekhevî û xweşbînî bête meşandin. Ev dikare demeke dirêj bigre û divê em li gor hinek hesab û nerînên nedûrbîn tevnegerin.Wek nimûne heger li herêmên soranîaxêf de dersa soranî weke dersa esasî ya perwerdeyê, lê dersa kurmancî jî wek dersek mecbûrî be; li herêmên kurmancîaxêf jî kurmancî esasî be û soranî mecburî be, wê hem nêzîkayî di navbeyna zaravayan de hêsantir çê bibe, hem jî wê herdu beşên xelkê me bêtir hevdu fêm bikin…
Serokên hêja,Destkeftinên li Başûrê Kurdistanê, destkeftin û serbilindiya hemû kurdên her çar perçeyên Kurdistanê ne. Em vê yekê weke berbanga armanc, hêvî, xewn û xeyalên pîroz yên hemû kurdan dibînin. Divê em vê destkeftinê weke destpêka pêşerojeke rohnîtir ya milletê Kurd bibînin, bi her awayî biparêzin û pêş ve bibin. Ev jî bi hevgirtin û yekîtiya milletê Kurd ve girêdayî ye. Ji bo xurtkirina vê yekîtiyê wezîfe dikeve ser milên hemû kurdên welatparêz.
Bi vê bîr û baweriyê em ji we hêjayan hêvî dikin ku hun bi awayekî giştî hêvî û daxwazên di warê mafên zaravayên kurdî de û bi taybetî jî daxwaz û hêviyên hemwelatiyên xwe yên li wîlayeta Dihok û Mûsilê ku bi daxuyaniyekê pêşkêşî we kirine, bê bersîv nehêlin û ji vê pirsa hesas û girîng re çareseriyeke munasib bibînin.

Şeş saziyên kurdî li Ewropayê nameyek ji serokên çar saziyên desthilatê li başûrê Kurdistanê re li ser pirsgirêka kurdiyê di zimanê perwerdeyê de hinart. Ew di vê nameya xwe de ji desthilata siyasî ya Kurdistanê dixwazin ku ew li hemî zaravayan wek hev bi xwedî derbikeve. Ev name di 20/5 2009-ê de hatiye şandin û niha ketiye ber çavên raya giştî. Em li jêr teksta wê diweşînin:
Ji Serokê Dewleta Federal a Îraqê birêz Celal Talebanî
Ji Serokê Herêma Kurdistanê birêz Mesûd Barzanî
Ji Serokê Wezîrê Hikûmeta Herêma Kurdistanê birêz Nêçîrvan Barzanî
Ji Serokê Parlemena Kurdistanê birêz Ednan Muftî
Li ser biryara Wezîrê Perwede yê Herêma Kurdistanê gelek dezgeh, sazî, komele û malperên Başûrê Kurdistanê nerazîbûn, daxwaz û hêviyên xwe bi nameyeke vekirî ji we birêzan re şandin û herweha ji raya giştî re jî diyar kirin. Ji xwe berê jî pirsa perwerdeya bi zaravayê kurmancî çend caran ketibû rojevê. Lê weha xuya ye ku heta vê gavê çareseriyek maqûl ji vê pirsgirêkê re nehatiyê dîtin û loma jî gelek sazî, dezgeh, komele û malperên Başûrê welatê me bi awayekî eşkere û vekirî ev pirsgirêk dîsa anîn holê.
Em ev dezgeh û komeleyên demokratîk yên kurdan ku navên wan li jêr in, daxwaza hemwelatiyên kurd yên di warê maf û bikaranîna zaravayê xwe yê kurmancî de, mafekî herî xwezayî, rewa û demokratîk dibînin. Bi vê munasebetê, em jî dixwazin bîr û baweriyên xwe; daxwaz û hêviyên xwe bi kurtayî pêşkêşî we hêjayan bikin:
1. Zimanê kurdî ji gelek zaravayên cihê pêk tê. Ev bingeh û rastiya tevna zimanê kurdî ye. Her zaravayek reng û dewlemendiyeke vî zimanî ye. Her zarava li gor xwe xwedî girîngî û taybetiyan e.Divê em li wan weke hev xwedî derkevin; delîve û firsendê bidin hemû zaravayan da ku bikaribin, bi awakî giştî di her warê jiyanê de û bi taybetî jî, di warê perwedeyê û statuya resmî de xwe pêşve bibin.
2. Mafê tu zaravayî ne kêm û ne jî zêdeyî mafên zaravayekî din e. Mafê her zaravayî ye ku di warê perwerde, bikaranîna daîreyên resmî yên Kurdistanê de behremend bibe. Bi tenê bi vî awayî em ê bikaribin bi awayekî giştî zimanê kurdî û bi taybetî jî zaravayên kurdî ji tehlûke, tatolek û xetera hejarî û jiholêrabûnê rizgar bikin.
3. Eger em di vî warî de siyaseteke neteweyî, demokratîk û xweşbînî nemeşînin, tirsa me ew e ku ev birîneke nû û kûr di laşê milletê Kurd de veke. Herweha ev dikare bibe delîve û firsetek ku dijminên milletê me ji vê rewşê îstifade bikin.
4. Piraniya kurdên ji her çar perçeyên Kurdistanê bi zaravayê kurmancî dipeyivin. Loma jî kurmancî weke xerc û çîmentoya yekîtiya di navbera perçeyên Kurdistanê de ye. Divê em vê rastiyê bidin ber çavan û tu zirarê nedin bingeha vê hevbeşiyê. Bê hebûna kurmancî yekîtiya milletê kurd nikare bê ava kirin.
5. Ev daxwaz, bi îdîayên “zimanê resmî û yekgirtî” tê bergirî kirin ku ev îdîa ne îdîayeke rewa û ne jî di cih de ye.Ew kesên ku ji bo zarokên xwe zaravayê soranî wek mafekî rewa dibînin, çima ji bo zarokên ku bi kurmancî, hewramanî yan jî zazakî dipeyivin wek mafekî rewa nabînin?Madem ku hinek dewlet di karûbarên xwe yên resmî û perwerdeyê de xwedî gelek ziman in, ji bo çi li beşekî welatê me yê azad, Hikûmeta Herêma Kurdistanê ne xwediyê zaravayên kurdî be û nikaribe vî mafê xwezayî û demokratîk bide hemwelatiyên xwe!
6. Di warê ziman û zaravayên kurdî de, divê em xwedî siyaseteke li gor şert û mercên welat û milletê Kurd bin. Pêşdexistin û nêzîkkirina zaravayên kurdî divê li gor pêvajoyeke xwezayî, wekhevî û xweşbînî bête meşandin. Ev dikare demeke dirêj bigre û divê em li gor hinek hesab û nerînên nedûrbîn tevnegerin.Wek nimûne heger li herêmên soranîaxêf de dersa soranî weke dersa esasî ya perwerdeyê, lê dersa kurmancî jî wek dersek mecbûrî be; li herêmên kurmancîaxêf jî kurmancî esasî be û soranî mecburî be, wê hem nêzîkayî di navbeyna zaravayan de hêsantir çê bibe, hem jî wê herdu beşên xelkê me bêtir hevdu fêm bikin…
Serokên hêja,Destkeftinên li Başûrê Kurdistanê, destkeftin û serbilindiya hemû kurdên her çar perçeyên Kurdistanê ne. Em vê yekê weke berbanga armanc, hêvî, xewn û xeyalên pîroz yên hemû kurdan dibînin. Divê em vê destkeftinê weke destpêka pêşerojeke rohnîtir ya milletê Kurd bibînin, bi her awayî biparêzin û pêş ve bibin. Ev jî bi hevgirtin û yekîtiya milletê Kurd ve girêdayî ye. Ji bo xurtkirina vê yekîtiyê wezîfe dikeve ser milên hemû kurdên welatparêz.
Bi vê bîr û baweriyê em ji we hêjayan hêvî dikin ku hun bi awayekî giştî hêvî û daxwazên di warê mafên zaravayên kurdî de û bi taybetî jî daxwaz û hêviyên hemwelatiyên xwe yên li wîlayeta Dihok û Mûsilê ku bi daxuyaniyekê pêşkêşî we kirine, bê bersîv nehêlin û ji vê pirsa hesas û girîng re çareseriyeke munasib bibînin.
