I have a very hard time understand these pan-Turkic people.
1) They want autonomy and freedom for Uyghurs. Fine, I agree with this opinion. Uyghurs suffer a lot under Chinese oppression. They deserve their own autonomy. They are a rather sustainable amoung of people too and they are distanct than the other Chinese people.
2) They want a Turkmen autonomy in KRG and Iraq. Fine, even as a Kurd who supports the integrity of KRG and Iraq I do not oppose this. Despite their small numbers and that they only constitute a majority in the outskirts of Mosul and Kerkuk. But if they really want an ethnic autonomy, they should be granted the chance. I do not see a problem with that
3) They want a Turkmen autonomy in Western Kurdistan in Northern Syria. I do not even oppose this autonomy despite the fact that they only constitute about 1/30 of the villages in the predominant Kurdish areas. If they want their own parliament and their own government, they should be allowed to.
Now, what makes me wonder a whole lot is why these pan-Turkic persons can not accept a Kurdish autonomy despite the fact that the Kurds constitute a population that numbers 5 times the total Turkmen population? The Kurds are not even as spread out as the Turkmens and would probably be twice as safe and governable than a Turkmen state in four different countries. The funny thing is that Turkmens in KRG and Iraq, despite only numbering very low compared to the general Iraqi and Kurdish population, have far better political ,cultural and linguist rights than any Kurd in Turkey has. Not one single Turkman party in KRG has been closed, not one single Turkman politician has been imprisoned and not one single Turkman village has been burned down to the ground. They even have Turkmen schools and Turkmen mother language education.
So my question is; If KRG can grant the Turkmens, who number somewhere between 300.000-500.000, their own schools with mother language education in Turkoman, how come it is such a big deal for Turkey to do the same to its 20-25 million Kurds?
