YRIZA Dış İlişkiler Sorumlusu Trigazis, kadın hakları, ekoloji mücadelesi ve barışı kendilerine hedef seçmiş sol görüşün her yerde zaferini istediklerini ve 2015 genel seçimlerinde HDP'nin yanında durduklarını söyledi.
Avrupa Sol Partisi’nin ikinci Akdeniz konferansı 20-22 Şubat tarihleri arasında İstanbul Taksim Hill Otel’de gerçekleşti.
Rojava kanton temsilcileriyle bir araya gelen SYRIZA Dış İlişkiler Sorumlusu Panos Trigazis ile Agos Gazetesi’nden Gülşah Keleş’e konuştu.
Trigasiz partinin sosyal demokratlardan, sosyalistler, feministler, ekolojistler gibi birçok farklı ideolojik gruptan oluşan bir koalisyon olduğunu belirterek, partilerinin yeni sosyal hareketlerin bir ifadesi bir sentez hareket olduğunu söyledi: “Parti’nin bayrağında bulunan kırmızı renk emeği, yeşil renk ekolojiyi, mor ise feminizmi temsil eder.”
Trigasiz, koalisyonun başarısının birkaç aylık değil, yıllardır verilen mücadele ile kazanıldığını da belirtti.
‘KRİZ HALKIN DEĞİL AVRUPA'NIN’
Yunanistan’da yaşanan krizin sadece Yunan halkını ilgilendirmediğini bunun bütün Avrupa’nın krizi olduğunu belirten Trigasiz’e göre çözümü ortak hareketle mümkün.
”Avrupa Birliği ile son günlerde yaptığımız görüşmeler, krizin yarattığı tahribatı ortadan kaldırmak, herkese ortak fayda sağlayabileceğimiz anlaşmalara varmak açısından önemli.”
Dış ilişkiler sorumlusu, kemer sıkma politikalarını ön plana koyan liberal hükümetlerin Yunanistan’daki anti-kapitalist parti deneyiminin bütün Avrupa halklarına örnek olabileceğinden korktuğunu söyledi.
‘ROJAVA DENEYİMİ KAZANIM’
Kobani olaylarını yakından takip ettiklerini ekleyen Trigasiz, ilk dayanışma delegelerini Kobani’ye kendilerinin gönderdiğini söyleyerek önceliklerinin Kobani’nin yeniden inşası olduğunu belirtti.
Trigasiz Rojova deneyiminin, özellikle doğrudan demokrasi ve kadın mücadelesi açısından dünyanın bir kazanımı olduğunu söylüyor.
Türkiye’de yaklaşan genel seçimle ilgili olarak Trigazis; kadın haklarını, ekolojik mücadeleyi, gelişimi ve barışı kendilerine hedef seçmiş sol görüşün her yerde zaferini istediklerini belirterek HDP’nin yanında durduklarını söyledi.
Using bomber, fighter and remotely piloted aircraft, U.S. forces conducted five airstrikes south of Kobani in Syria yesterday and today, damaging an ISIL training camp and destroying an ISIL support building and two ISIL vehicles. The strikes also hit a small ISIL unit and a large ISIL unit, officials said. It's a good, well paved two lane road, good for heavy trucks, semi's, even tank transporters.
Finally this resolution recognizes that there is no military solution to the problem of misguided individuals seeking to join terrorist organizations. The US ambassador to the UN says the opening business” included passage 
I'll agree with you that the League of Nations (which the US was not a part of, due to adopting isolationism, like so many progressives want to do today) did "stand around and allow Mussoliini" to invade League member Ethiopia and when Ethiopia surprisingly was kicking Italy's troops' ass, Mussolini decided to use gas on the population, and the League did absolutely nothing (which would be a policy advocated by today's progressives, sadly). But Ethopia's leader got Time Man Of The Year, so at least there's that.
The nature of the fighting in and around Kobani has meant that it is not possible to get a very clear picture of the state of the battle for the town. Kurdish militias tend to report dramatic gains, while IS militants are either silent or also report dramatic gains. However, there have been indications that Kurdish militias have been making some advances in the battle for Kobani. The statement said U.S. forces have conducted more than 135 air strikes against IS forces in Kobani.
The Chechen IS militant also claimed that the Kurds had been assisted in their capture of the hill by American intelligence” and that the Kurdish forces had carried out their operation in the dead of night,” a sign that Kurdish militias are able to strategically outmaneuver IS to make gains. It said IS militants fired nearly 50 mortars at Kurdish areas, and two car bombs hit Kurdish positions on October 18.
Erdogan said the dominant Syrian Kurdish party, the Democratic Union Party, is a "terrorist organization," just like the Turkish Kurdish rebel group it has been linked to, the Kurdistan Workers Party. Meanwhile, the Iraqi military said October 19 it had recaptured several areas from the IS group in a northern enclave as part of a major counterattack against the jihadists. Even the United States and Turkey warned in October that the town was teetering on the brink.
Lastly, analysts have found a new way of recording the numbers of displaced persons in war-torn countries like Syria. Here are are the light levels at night recorded by satellites for the period when the conflict began, on the left, and February of 2014, on the right. The night time light levels have decreased 74% during that period overall, 60% in 12 out of 14 provinces, with some cities being almost completely extinguished.
Lawmakers there agreed Wednesday to send their peshmerga fighters after Turkey said it would allow 200 of them to travel through its territory to Kobane, where IS has an estimated 1,000 militants. On the ground, the jihadists 
A news article said that since WW1, the Jews have ruled Turkey secretly. So why would Turkey want to get involved The Satanic , Luceriferian Jews need this war in the Middle East to continue as long as possible because , they want Iran out of the way and only by continuing the war wil Iran eventually become involved in som way for Israel , or Israel to use the United States to take Iran out of their way for control of the whole Middle East.

The German magazine, De Spiegel, reported that one hundred textile factories and workshops in the Syrian city of Aleppo were moved to the eastern canton of Rojava, Efrîn, recently. The attitude of the regional government of Efrîn, actively seeking to attract private companies to the region, highlights the inherent contradiction of attempting to build a new model based on social justice, while working within the framework of capitalism. 
Both Turkish and Kurdish leaders have struck a note of optimism in recent days, predicting that a peace settlement to end the insurgency, which has claimed 40,000 lives, could be only months away. If the beheadings and dismemberments were not horrible enough, another disturbing new revelation from Kobane are reports that the most brutal member of the jihadis appear to be Europeans.
Intense rioting broke out this month within Turkey's 15 million strong Kurdish community over the government's failure to help Kobane, and since then Ankara has vowed to take concrete steps in the two-year-long 
The fight against Isis does not seem to be going too well in Iraq either. AP has this report on growing pubic disgruntlement at the Iraqi government's military campaign against Isis. The west is pinning much on the new prime minister, Haider al-Abadi, to wage a more effective campaign against the jihadists. Erdogan said more than 200,000 people have fled the fighting in and around Kobani in recent weeks. Their flight is among the largest single exoduses of the three-year Syrian conflict.
Turkish media reports said up to 14 people had been killed in eastern cities and dozens more wounded. The toll included eight deaths in the eastern city of Diyarbakir, the Dogan news agency said. One man was reported to have been killed by a bullet to the head in Varto in the eastern province of Mus when police allegedly fired live ammunition. Protests across Turkey were accompanied by pro-Kurdish demonstations elsewhere, including at the European parliament in Brussels.
The militants have besieged the town to the east, south and west, meaning the Kurds' only possible supply route is the Turkish border to the north. The U.N. envoy to Syria on Friday called on Turkey to help prevent a slaughter in Kobane, asking it to let 'volunteers' cross the frontier so they could reinforce the Kurdish forces defending the town that lies within sight of Turkish territory. Kurdish fighters walk to positions as they fight ISIS forces in Kobani on Sunday, October 19.
Protests were reported in cities across Turkey on Tuesday, after Islamic State fighters backed by tanks and artillery engaged in heavy street battles with the town's Kurdish defenders. The Organized Crime Prosecutor's 
A U.S.-led coalition carrying out air raids against ISIL has recently intensified attacks near Kobane, and the Pentagon said its warplanes made 10 strikes in the area on Oct. 29 and Oct. 30. The attack came after the IS militants overran Kurdish headquarters in the border town on Friday, sparking fears they would cut off the last escape route to neighboring Turkey for hundreds of mainly elderly civilians still in the town centre.
Regarding civilians who were closer to the blast, Omar said he was treating affected patients with oxygen, the steroid cortisone and other drugs until about 2.30am, as well as fielding calls from people who did not want to leave 
Thank you ROAR for another article on the situation. I just wanted to point out as a person from Cyprus that there is no Greek Cyprus. There are different ways to explain the geographic position but Greek Cyprus reinforces the nationalist views! Turkey's President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has engineered a dangerous game of blackmail, using the massacre of Kurds as collateral while warning that Kobani is about to fall.
Meanwhile a Turkish nurse went public with a letter to parliament and several media organizations, detailing how she has treated many wounded ISIS members and higher-ups at the private hospital she works at, and now is "sick and tired" of treating people "who chop off heads." She says the people arrive there under false name and are introduced as Syrian "opposition members". Several details are given.
That the Peshmerga units may travel via Turkey to Syria, was long disputed: Because the PKK is classified in Turkey and in the EU and in the USA still a terrorist organization, Ankara hesitated so, send their fighters in Kobane Help leave. Time and again, Kurdish volunteers who wanted to join the People's protection units, rejected by Turkish border guards. Feminism as a political culture bores me but in this instance the right men for the job just happens to be women.
A US military airdrop of weapons meant for Kurdish fighters fell into the hands of the Islamic State group near the Syrian battleground town of Kobane. The US Air Force parachuted crates of weapons, ammunition and medical supplies on Sunday night to resupply Kurds defending the Syrian town of Kobane from IS militants. I told Obama that the PYD is in the same class as the PKK. I said it is also a terrorist organization,” Mr. Erdogan said.
The shipment was the first of its kind and followed weeks of air strikes around Kobane, near the Turkish border. US Central Command said C-130 cargo planes made multiple drops of supplies, which were provided by Kurdish authorities 
Aerial footage of the town, which the IS group has stamped as having been shot by a "drone of the Islamic State Army", shows a wrecked city with a street layout that corresponds to that of the pre-war satellite maps of Kobane. In the video released on Monday, Cantlie dismisses reports that IS forces have failed in their assault on the Kurdish town, declaring that they hold the east and south of Kobane and that their victory there is only a matter of time.
But it is doing little to aid the Kurds. This in turn invites the question of whether Turkey sees the Kurds as a greater threat than the jihadists, who stand to grab their third border crossing with Turkey. Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan appeared to suggest that IS and the PKK were equally dangerous It is wrong to view them differently, we need to deal to them jointly,” he told reporters Oct. 3 in Istanbul. Erdogan's comments hold the key to understanding Turkey's policy on Kobani.
Yesterday guns and explosions could be heard from across the border. Kurdish fighters repulsed a pre-dawn attack by Isis forces and still controlled the town's border crossing with Turkey, a vital supply and exit route. It is not clear how long the Kurds can hold on, with some 40% of the town in the hands of the jihadists. The United States has said airstrikes alone may not be enough to save Kobane.
Critics have accused Turkey of helping militants. The Turkish government had diplomatic and political negotiations ” with ISIS to free 46 Turkish hostages , and according to critics, has long ignored that its border had become ISIS's preferred method of entering or exiting Syria. A Turkish news channel showed live video feed from the Kobane border Wednesday, claiming that it showed ISIS fighters entering the city from Turkey. International Business Times could not independently verify the video.
Damascus has faced repeated criticism for its use of barrel bombs — improvised explosive devices that have little accuracy and can cause widespread devastation. We are horrified by the reports that the Assad regime barrel bombed the Abedin displaced persons camp in Idlib and the images we saw of the carnage against innocent civilians,” US State Department spokeswoman Jen Psaki said.
One official said that while the results of the mission are still being assessed, it appeared that the vast majority” of the supplies reached the intended Kurdish fighters. That official also said the C-130s encountered no resistance from the ground in Syria during their flights in and out of Syrian airspace. The officials spoke on condition of anonymity under ground rules set by the White House.
On October 29, John Allen, the retired U.S. general tasked by President Barack Obama with overseeing the anti-ISIS campaign, told Al Arabiya News Channel we don't think Kobane is about to fall in the hands of ISIS, the entrance of Peshmerga fighters will prevent that”2. One day later, Financial Times reported the ten peshmerga fighters who entered Kobani were an advance group of 
FSA commander Al-Oqaidi is quoted as saying that an agreement has been reached to begin establishing a united defense force, sending initially 1,350 FSA reserve” (rather than frontline) fighters to Kobane in two or three days”. The PYD has also denied the claims by the Assad regime that it has provided weapons, ammunition and logistical help” to the embattled Kurds in Kobane (scroll down - see below).
The Turkish Army also managed to disgrace itself further yesterday, Thursday, when it opened fire with tear gas and live bullets on a vigil organised by artists affiliated to the Initiative for Free Art” which had been running in the village of Boyde bordering Kobane for the last 2 days. There have also been suggestions that some members of the Khorasan group were an elite sub-unit of ANF known as the Wolf Group” or the Al Qaeda Snipers”.
What happened was that someone in the U.S. military propaganda wing decided we needed a good shot of IS fighters getting zapped by the air strikes. Until the Tel Sheir video, all we had seen was flying concrete, as US planes blew up ruined buildings inside Kobane. It was probably effective, but it wasn't good TV. You couldn't tell, at telephoto distance, if those buildings were even occupied.
In a statement Sunday night, U.S. Central Command said U.S. C-130 cargo planes made multiple drops of arms and supplies provided by Kurdish authorities in Iraq. It said they were intended to enable continued resistance to Islamic State efforts to take full control of Kobani. Today there are reports of at least 10 rockets being fired into Kobane and reporters just across the Turkish border have witnessed gunfights.
Some reports claim that it is quiet in Kobane today because, according to Opposition sources, the Islamic State is burying 91 of its fighters in Manbej. Thank you, Peter, for providing up-to-date news on what's actually happening on the ground.
