DHKC Statement Concerning Attempted Attack On U.S. Consulate

Revolutionary People's Liberation Front (DHKC) Press Bureau
June 4, 1999 - Declaration 87

America Destroyed Our Independence, It Wants To Destroy The
Independence Of All Countries

It Has Been Bombing The People Of Yugoslavia For Months Because
It Wants To Break It Up And Establish Its Domination

     When the U.S., or any other imperialists, attack another
country, their aim is to destroy everything related to the
independence and freedom of the peoples, and their dignity of
life.
     For this purpose, U.S. imperialism has been bombing the
Yugoslav people for three months. States which are servants of
America and whose brains are under their control are applauding
this attack. They are flattering America, urging it to leave not
a single stone standing, and to murder more. All those who talk
about human rights, the right of nations to self-determination,
and countries' sovereignity are suporting the American massacres
by telling them to bomb more, to murder more. Bombs, missiles,
and armies can never destroy a peoples' desire for freedom. They
may leave no stone standing, they may murder millions however,
this weapon will be turned around and used against them. Because
with this weapon they have murdered the people, and tried to
destroy their history. But the people's history cannot be
destroyed. Peoples who have been slaughtered never forget and
their history cannot be wiped out even if centuries pass. Anger,
resistance and rebellion build up within the people who have been
subject to slaughter. And that rebellion, sooner or later,
emerges and overwhelms the tyrants. Today, all the imperialists
boast while murdering people with their planes and their remote
controlled missiles spewing out blood. The tyrants will never
live long. Wherever there are imperialists and their
collaborators, there will be the struggle of oppressed peoples.
     However much imperialism wants to turn the oppressed peoples
into each others enemies in order to divide them, the peoples
will sooner or later grasp the reality of brotherhood and raise
the flag of struggle. Our people has no hostility towards the
peoples of the Balkans. The imperialists are the ones who are the
enemies of the Balkan peoples and who want to divide and weaken
them and destroy their freedom. Despite the fact that the
imperialists together with their colloborators, under the
leadership of USA, have been bombing the Yugoslav people, they
still have not been able to seize control of them. This is the
strength of the oppressed peoples. This is the honourable
resistance of a technically and militarilly weak people against
all the imperialists, with all their huge strength. Even though
they level Yugoslavia to the ground and divide it, the permanent
victory will not belong to the imperialists! In order to protest
America's attack on Yugoslavian people, and to strengthen our
people's fraternal feelings towards the Yugoslav people, on June
4, 1999 around 6:00 p.m., we attempted to carry out an attack
against the U.S. Consulate General in Istanbul, with missiles.
Two of our fighters, Sadik Mamati And Seluk Akgul, drew the
attention of the police while approaching the consulate, clashed
with them, and died as martyrs in the fight. As long as the
American bases remain on the soil of our motherland, as long as
imperialism tries to turn the peoples into each other's enemies
and murders them, our war will continue.

Down With Imperialism!
Long Live Independent Turkey!
Long Live The Brotherhood Of The Peoples Of Yugoslavia And
Turkey!
