Hello, fellow Reds.

Since the Syrian War I’ve heard leftists speak of Rojava, but I’ve never understood the importance or significance of it.

Well, we should maybe start by defining what it is / was.

Partially related (partially?), I’m reading the Kurds or a part of them is CIA-backed and that “anarkids are going to fall for it again”. This is in relation to Kurds attacking Iran by proxy.

So I need a bit of context about the region.

Thanks 😁

EDIT: Thanks for the replies! I understand the topic much better now 😀 One can never, ever, accept to become a tool of imperialism and/or the right (not a big difference anyway).
