Happy Newroz and the Spring equinox, to all my friends and Kurds wherever they live.
Roj li Rojhelat hiltê! Newroza 2726an, pîrozbahiya azadî û yekîtîye li Kurdistanê ye.💚
خۆر لە ڕوژهەڵاتەوە هەڵدێت! نەورۆزی ٢٧٢٦، ئاهەنگی سەربەستی و یەکگرتووییە لە کوردستان

Don’t forget the dreadful 16.03.1988 when Kurds were preparing to celebrate Newroz— nearly 5000 asphyxiated by chemical weapons in #Halabja, Başûr (South Kurdistan), Iraq.
Îro tevahiya Kurdistanê 38 saliya komkujiya Helebceyê bi rêzdarî û bi bîr tine û ji bîrnake.

The political cartoon by Charlie Hebdo—showing the end of the ideological regressive holy dictator of Iran Ali Khamenei.
The expressive power of art undoubtedly crosses boundaries, sharply and clearly!
The best artwork to celebrate the end of the holy dictator of Iran; still millions of Iranians and marginalized ethnics specially Kurds are waiting for a big change!

گۆلی باخی ئاواتم تا کەی دیڵی له ماڵێ
بۆلبۆلی ئارەزووی دل، له کونجی سینگ دەناڵێ
دەڵێ وەک قۆمری به جووت روو بکەینه دووره یاڵێ
هەناسەمان تێکەڵ کەین لێڵێ نار لێڵێ یار
خەمی دنیا دوماڵێ، لێلێ نار لێلێ یارێ
لێلێ نار لێلێ جوانێ
