Six years since Kurdistan lost one of its finest leader, Dr. Najmaldin Karim. A patriot, a visionary, & a tireless defender the Greater #Kurdistan. His life was devoted to serving Kurds & his legacy remains a source of pride & inspiration to all of us. Rest in power, Dr. Karim!

Today marks the dignity, courage, & right to self-determination of the Kurdish nation, despite the grave failure of the international community to support that right. From Kirkuk to every corner of Greater Kurdistan and throughout the Kurdish diaspora, happy anniversary of the historic September 25 Independence Referendum.

"The SDF, however, does not encompass the Kurdish question in its entirety. Nor does it alone represent Kurdish identity or embody the whole political history of the Kurds in Syria and their struggle for rights." @PolatCanRojava

The SDF’s integration may have settled the military question, but it has not settled the Kurdish question. Kurdish political, cultural, educational,& local-governance rights remain unresolved: #Kurdistan Digest | August 2026 - dckurd.org/2026/08/27/kurdis…

Newly published: Birds of the Mountains — a gripping story of love, sacrifice, survival, and one man’s fight for freedom, set against the brutal backdrop of Saddam Hussein’s regime and war in Iraq. Inspired by the author’s own experience a.co/d/06ztl4fK

The political foundations demanded by Kurds in Rojava remained incomplete. Kurdish identity, language, women’s military role, university recognition, property restitution, local self-administration, and security guarantees all remained contested: dckurd.org/2026/07/28/kurdis… #Kurdistan
