Statement by the Communist Party, Turkey (Komünist Parti) regarding the terrorist attack in Istanbul's airport / Source: International Communist Press.
No
people is by nature predisposed to take massacres for granted, to
kneel before tyranny, and to keep silent against fundamentalism. Any
people who do so lose their humanity.
We
reject to get used to massacres, bomb attacks, and political murders.
We
reject to put up with a government who always try to present
massacres, bomb attacks, and political murders as usual events.
We
reject to keep silent against a government who interfere in other
countries’ internal affairs, who prompt terrorists to attack those
lands, and who back the same terrorists in the name of “sacred
values” in its own country.
We
reject to recognize the law of those who pass new bills in the
parliament while tens die due to the indifference, hypocrisy,
sinister plans, and ineptitude of the government.
We
reject to put up with the bourgeoisie and moneybags who think the sun
rises and sets on their profits in this bloodbath.
We
reject to stand those enemies of humankind under the guise of
“advisors” who mock with grieving people and threat them.
We
reject to leave the Turkish Airlines administration, who employ
pro-ISIS people in the most critical positions, in peace.
We
reject to take for granted that Prime Minister claiming that “there
is no security flaw” and those officers who drop the dazed
passengers in Taksim square in the middle of the night.
We
will not tolerate those cab drivers, who laugh all the way to the
bank by overcharging desperate people, while tarnishing their
colleagues’ reputation who rush the injured to the hospital free of
charge.
No
people is by nature predisposed to take massacres for granted, to
kneel before tyranny, and to keep silent against fundamentalism. Any
people who do so lose their humanity.
The
solution will not come from heavens! This country will not see
shining days without a struggle!
Do
not grumble, get organized!
Do
not shirk calling this reactionary government to account, and the
moneybags who murmur about the “country’s reputation” and
tourist count while our fellow citizens are being massacred.
Rise up!
Communist
Party, Turkey (KP), 29.6.2016.
