Why is this content split? This content can be adequately covered within the parent biography given the secondary sources provided. czar12:01, 22 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Czar: It appears to duplicate a lot of the scope from democratic confederalism. In fact, it seems like it lifted a lot of the text in the first few paragraphs from there, albeit slightly rewritten. I'd say democratic confederalism is probably a better target for merging, if it's truly necessary. --Grnrchst (talk) 12:54, 24 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
This template must be followed by a complete and specific description of the request, that is, specify what text should be removed and a verbatim copy of the text that should replace it.Cullen328 (talk) 18:04, 1 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
PKK under his leasership is responsible for nearly 5k civilian deaths, raids on villages, thousands of kidnappings and executions (especially Kurd villagers who were not aiding them), attacks on kindergartens and primary schools, suicide bombings, human trafficking (especially high school age youth at rural areas getting forced to join their forces), drug trafficking (major income source) and a lot of other crimes committed against international human rights.
All of them were confessed by himself. After he got arrested he said he didn’t wanted to do all that but he had a lot of statements supporting these activities back then.
PKK can not represent Kurdish people or Kurdish identity. Their only difference from other Middle East based terrorist organizations such as IS or Al-Qaeda is their self-claimed ideologic orientation. So considering PKK as representatives of Kurd population is the same foolishness with considering IS as representatives of all Muslims in the world.
A suitable head description:
Abdullah Öcalan (/ˈoʊdʒəlɑːn/ OH-jə-lahn;Turkish: [œdʒaɫan]; born 4 April 1949), also known as Apo (short for Abdullah in Turkish; Kurdish for "uncle"), is a political prisoner(?), war criminal, drug lord and founding member of the militant Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK).
