Beyond Fabricated Symbols: The Reawakening of Free Will from the Vaults of the Deep State

Amid the turbulent transformations that are redrawing the contours of a wounded Middle East, the contemplative mind stands before a scene in which roles exchange masks, and the threads of politics intertwine with the stratagems of deep powers that have never ceased conspiring against the will of peoples yearning for liberation. Whoever follows the trajectories of the deep state’s “black box,” embodied in figures who have long grown accustomed to dancing upon the wounds of just causes, realizes that the messages transmitted through them are nothing more than echoes of schemes submerged in darkness. Those who possess the authority to -dir-ect and control the vital arteries of the economy and the media have relentlessly practiced the art of systematic deception, striving to suffocate the Kurdish consciousness rising from the ashes of repression by manufacturing illusory symbols and political idols. These figures are presented to the masses in deceptive molds, while the strings that move them remain imprisoned within the dark chambers of intelligence agencies.

Anyone who reflects upon the history of relations between state apparatuses and those who claim to represent the revolutionary conscience will notice a recurring pattern in the fabrication of “manufactured loyalties.” For decades, an ongoing effort has been devoted to crafting halos of sanctity around personalities whose roles were meticulously designed to steer popular movements into paths that serve the survival of oppressive systems. This investment in “symbolism” was far from accidental-;- rather, it -function-ed as a mechanism to contain the surreal anger that fills Kurdish hearts, transforming it from an authentic force of liberation into fuel for internal conflicts and bloody purges that claimed the lives of thousands of innocent and devoted individuals. It is the old game continually renewed, a game that seeks to turn the victim into an instrument in the hands of the executioner. In this game, the free are assassinated under accusations of treason, while those who advance the agendas of repression are elevated under glittering titles and secret understandings forged behind closed curtains.

The tragedy of this scene becomes most evident in those decisive moments when young people are thrown into the furnace of futile wars, such as the “trench battles” that scorched everything in their path and displaced millions. Those decisions were not born of national necessity as much as they were the execution of scenarios drafted in the kitchens of security decision-making. The roles played by intermediaries who move between centers of power and the prisons of isolation have revealed the extent of the penetration suffered by the Kurdish body. These messengers who carry poisoned “secrets” and deliver them to the architects of the deep state embody the peak of the tragedy. While some believe they are steering the ship of salvation, it becomes clear that they are nothing more than sailors in the enemy’s fleet, -dir-ecting the helm toward inevitable drowning, only to vanish under mysterious circumstances, leaving behind them the ashes of ruined cities and the sorrows of the bereaved.

As tyrants crumble and the balances of international power shift, we see the deep state hastening to exhume its old files, attempting to recycle the “rusted weapons” it forged in the basements of the 1970s. The gestures toward a false peace, and the calls -dir-ected at exhausted symbols to lay down arms and dismantle themselves, do not arise from a moral awakening. Rather, they stem from an existential fear of the expanding Kurdish will, a will that has begun to impose its conditions on the ground in Western and Southern Kurdistan. They fear the dawn of a morning in which there will be no place for subordination. Thus they resort to the language of threats and intimidation through external powers, attempting to isolate Kurdish consciousness from its international environment that supports its rights. Even the lamentations over alleged “plots” aimed at assassinating intermediaries are merely another movement in the symphony of deception, intended to divert attention away from the real killer lurking within the darkness of power.

The free spirit cannot be purchased with false promises, and human dignity is far too precious to be auctioned in the marketplace of security bargains. Moral and political duty compels everyone who cares about the Kurdish cause to distinguish between the genuine and the false, between the friend and the enemy disguised in the attire of a friend. A bright future cannot be built upon the sanctification of individuals at the expense of the rights of the people, nor can one accept a “one-sided love” designed to subjugate the Kurdish conscience to the will of a constitution that denies its very existence. The achievements secured through blood in the different parts of Kurdistan must be protected with the vigilance of watchful eyes, far from the illusions of “coexistence” founded upon dependency and dissolution. The era of sacrificing homelands for the survival of individuals has passed. Today, the Kurds must embrace their freedom beyond the guardianship of the “black boxes” and their deadly secrets, believing that rights are seized through awareness and unity, not through messages written in the ink of intelligence agencies.
