Kurds hold protests all over Europe

Kurdish community members have held protests in several European cities over the Turkish government’s inaction against ISIL Takfiri militants.

Around 150 Kurdish protesters stormed the European Parliament headquarters in Brussels on Tuesday to criticize Ankara’s inaction to protect the Syrian Kurdish town of Kobane against the ISIL attacks.

“We came here to make ourselves [heard] to the whole world because nobody is listening to us,” a demonstrator told reporters.

“No one is opening their eyes to what is happening in Kobane. Innocent people, women, children are getting killed for no reason,” said another demonstrator.

Thousands of people also gathered on the streets of London in a show of solidarity with the Syrian Kurds of Kobane.

The protesters chanted “Shame on you, Turkey” and accused Turkey of failing to drive back the ISIL Takfiri militants.

Moreover, Kurdish demonstrators organized an anti-ISIL protest in Berlin and held protests in several other German cities.

And scores of protesters gathered outside the France’s Foreign Ministry building, and called for solidarity with the Kurdish resistance.

On Monday, Kurdish protesters occupied the Dutch national parliament building in The Hague.

The ISIL terror group launched its assault on Kobane three weeks ago, forcing 200,000 mainly Kurdish refugees to flee into neighboring Turkey.

According to the so-called Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, at least 412 people, more than half of them militants, have been killed in and around Kobane since the start of ISIL assault in mid-September.

The ISIL Takfiris have committed widespread acts of violence, including mass executions, abductions, torture and forcing women into slavery in the areas they have seized in Iraq and Syria.
