Hasn't the time come for a get-to-gether, dear Kurdish students from all over the world? Shouldn't we hold a meeting every year with students from those countries in the diaspora where relatively large Kurdish communities live? How 'bout an 'Edî Bes e' to us neglecting eachother? Let's get busy!
Edî Bes e!*
Let's get to know eachother, let us share our love for our nation, for Kurdistan, for freedom, human rights, equality. Let's share experiences concerning integration and participation in the various countries we live in. Let us strengthen eachother, support eachother and boost our abilities with debates, different point of views, shared experiences, analyses, presentations, readings, forums.
Yes indeed, the time has come that Kurdish student associations all over the world start a new project, form a new alliance.
How bout lobbying our way through Germany, the States, the UK, Holland, Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Belgium, France and Xweda** knows which other countries a Kurd has ever been to and organising teleconferences in order to come to a concensus on an annual 3-day Kurdistan Students International conference?
Who is ready to cross borders? Who's ready to carry a stone for our wall of unity? Without a doubt, if we have enough rocks we will succede.
Has anyone thought of this idea before?
Does anyone want to unite?
Am I just a voice shouting in the wilderness of countless ideas?
Can anybody hear me?? Hello?!?
