To the attention of international community Despite the periodical descents and ascents, the civil war in Syria continues for more than 2 years. The process which began with peaceful demonstrations turned into an armed conflict as a result of the brutal attempts by the regime to suppress the protests. Presumably the casualties have gone beyond 100 thousand. At the present time, there are uncontrolled armed groups and the military powers of the regime on the streets instead of people marching for their freedom demands. In the country where the destruction has reached an unprecedented level. The Kurds - who are the largest ethnic group after the Arabs in Syria and are the potential catalyst for a possible pluralistic and democratic process in Syria- have indicated at the beginning of the conflict that they are interested in peaceful transition from dictatorial regime to a democratic and pluralistic system. They avoid being a part the conflict which causes thousand of deaths, destruction of infrastructures in the country with any visible result. At the beginning to the present time, Kurds have tried to protect Kurdistan region in Syria (in Kurdish: Rojava - Western Kurdistan) from the conflict and provide humanitarian aid to those who escape from the conflict including Arabs, Assyrians, Armenians and Kurds. In Kurdistan region in Syria, limited resources were mobilized for the needs of all people including education and health services. In recent days, the stability of Kurdistan region under threat of Turkey supported Al-Qaida linked groups. Their attacks become systematical and many people have been killed, kidnapped or displaced (For further information please see below listed links to reports which have been verified by independent journalists and NGOs.) Therefore we ask the international community, the media, and the human rights organizations to intervene without any delay to prevent further killing of civilians. Please raise your voice against ongoing crime committed by Al-Qaida linked fundamentalist groups and Bashar Asad Regime. As above mentioned, Western Kurdistan is less affected from the Syrian conflict yet and becomes a safe heaven for those who escape from the Syrian conflict. However the Al-Qaida linked fundamentalist groups will now export this war to Western Kurdistan through the logistical helps of some neighboring countries. The spread of war to West Kurdistan will cause a humanitarian disaster in the region and a brutal ethnic cleansing against Kurdish people. It is time to mobilize International communities, governments, NGOs and media to prevent an upcoming humanitarian disaster.
