There have been a large number of terrorist activities on our land for almost 20 years. The terrorists called this as a war of independence. But they are continuing to kill innocent people.

Today (21th October 2007) according to the authorities 12 Turkish soldiers killed in action. And the world is still discussing that an operation on Northern Iraq is fair or not.

We are in a campaign that hurts our people including Turks, Kurds and the other elements of Turkish Republic.

We demand nothing except our peace. Let us finish this blood flow... Let us heal this wound...
