“When we look at the archives, we find no statement other than Ercan Kanar's condemnation concerning Şimel Aydın. We encounter a Human Rights Association (İHD) that becomes silent when it comes to the execution by left-wing organizations. This silence is not limited to İHD alone. Primarily the press and media of the time, as well as institutions and individuals advocating human rights, have remained silent when it comes to organizational executions.” PoliticsHuman RightsActivismLeftismFar Left Book:Yoldaşını Öldürmek Source: Yoldaşını Öldürmek
“The morning after the next night, a dance of revolution took place in the barracks. At the head of the line was likely the comrade Şimel referred to as "sister". Years later, I learned that while those who executed Şimel were dancing, two female guards on the other side of the door were crying. Torture marks were found in the autopsy report. Şimel was a 17-year-old girl when she was killed. It seems they didn't even wait for her to grow up. Both the state and 11 leftist organizations knew Şimel would be killed. Neither the state nor the organizations prevented it. Those who annually commemorate Erdal Eren, whose age was increased for his execution, did not see, hear, or acknowledge Şimel. Yet, Şimel's age was not altered. She remained forever 17.” Human RightsTerrorismActivismLeftismFar LeftPkkDhkpcSimel Aydin Book:Yoldaşını Öldürmek Source: Yoldaşını Öldürmek
“Our sit-in action unmasked many things. We realized that human rights organizations are not truly advocates of rights. We saw that writers and artists are hypocritical. We observed that they mention victims of the state, but they do not even speak the names of victims of organizations” Social JusticeHuman RightsActivismHypocrisyLeftism Book:Dağbozumu Source: Dağbozumu
