I too despise of their actions. But we are in this mess because politicians did treated them as monkeys and forgotten that they are human beings, when it is matters.
They must be aware their families very much underfunded because of crowdness. They work the jobs no one wants unless that person have to. First couple of children works and provide money so youngest can get education, at what cost. Most eastern anatolian owns a property, this is a priority for them according to my Kurdish friends from university. They even benefit from goverment funds which rest of the population cant. Too big of a number of them still using stolen electricity and rest of the population pays it (yes literally we pay, for the foreigners who dont know Turkey, you see it in the bill openly).
Yes they gain numbers, more votes, more powers, ability to make their voice heard more but in the end by doing these acts as combined they end up with no honour, no prestige.
Lets say they achived their goal of creating a country. How are they gonna tell their history to the children, there is no heroism. They bomb, they ambush. they sell drugs, they traffic prostitutes, they stole electricity, much of their real power comes from outside support, while having many children they create less then what it should been.
In the end PKK should not have support by not getting us in their trap of dividing Turks and Kurds by racial conflict. We must adapt, we are getting there, our country have much experience. They cannot win, they will get decimated, they can only stop us when we have pity for their very much undeserved demands, not the one they actually have rights.
Note: My mother's father side is settled to Kütahya with Germiyonoğlu tripe as parts of Oğuz Avşar Tripe (Ömers subtripe). My mother's mother side is a mix of Gajjar Turkmen and Cherkez from eastern Thrace. Father side is completely Bosnian. After second Vienna Siege failed they migrated to Salonika (Selanik, tessalonika) in fear muslims will be slaughtered. And with the WW1 they escaped war again inside Anatolia, Sultan gave them villages in Kütahya. So this make me as genetics dictates possibly a south Slav and Illyrian mix which means i am not a Turk, except i do not know any other culture and language other then Turkish. I see Turkish culture supperior to others, it is my choice. When i see comments like "Turkey is for the Turks, Turks are the supperior race" (i am exaggerating) i get really offended. My ancestors did fight for this country in many wars which i can prove some of it. So it is my duty to keep their legacy in very best shape that includes dont calling other races monkeys.
You can call terrorist anything you want they deserve it.
