This local tradition has its origins in the early 19th century in the days when religion played a much larger part in people’s lives than today and Christian festivals were also a rare opportunity for a local holiday. In 1801 the first annual Sunday School procession was introduced in Manchester at Whitsuntide and by 1813 the idea of an outing for Sunday School children after the procession had become common in many North West mill towns.By 1834 the idea of Warrington Walking Day was already established, possibly begun by Rector Horace Powys (pictured left). The procession took place in early to mid June on the last Friday of the Newton race meeting, as a counter-attraction to the dangers of drunkenness and gambling!At first only the members of the Church of England took part, but by the middle of nineteenth century there were three separate processions. The Church of England started from the Old Market Place (until 1873 when it began from the Town Hall), and the Roman Catholics had a separate route around the town centre after the Church of England parade. The Nonconformist churches also followed a separate route around the town which often finished at Bank Quay station for an afternoon out by train. Not surprisingly the processions often met head on!The 1897 saw a special Jubilee Walking Day to celebrate the 60th Anniversary of Queen Victoria’s accession to the throne. No less than 14,000 children took part and the procession passed the Town Hall steps where each child aged 3-14 received a three penny piece from the Mayor. St James’s Sunday School from Latchford adopted a patriotic theme. Their procession included a model warship!The Warrington Guardian reported that “a number of lads dressed as sailors drew a model of an ironclad whilst two lads in front carried a banner containing Nelson’s last signal to the fleet. As they passed the Town hall steps they were cheered by onlookers.”By then it had become an annual festival and a day’s holiday for all Warrington’s young people, but it wasn’t until the early twentieth century that Walking Day as we now know it had evolved. This was when all participants from all churches walked together, although still not from the same starting point. The first time all three groups had walked together was for Walking Day in 1902, the Coronation year of Edward VII, but this unity was short lived.Warrington Walking Day has taken place every year since it began, except in the early 1940s during the Second World War. After the War ended in 1945, about 10,000 children and adults joined the Walk to celebrate peace.It was not until the 1990s that everyone walked exactly the same route, to come together after the explosion of the IRA bomb in Bridge Street in Warrington town centre in 1993, which tragically killed two young boys.As well as the religious procession there was always a carnival atmosphere on Walking Day, perhaps a reminder of Warrington’s medieval Summer Fair, held on the 6th,7th and 8th July. In 1879 the Warrington Guardian reported that:-“Long before the usual time the streets were swarming with gaily dressed children and crowds of people were hurrying from all parts of the town to the more central parts of Market Gate and Sankey Street… In Sankey Street several large flags were flying and there was a good general display of bunting, whilst all the windows were packed with sightseers. Numerous itinerant hawkers did a roaring trade, especially in gorgeous penny canes, with knobs and tassel complete, which nearly every youngster who could raise the copper seemed to think it was part of his duty to purchase. Besides these there were toffee vendors and orange sellers.”When Walking Day became a whole day’s holiday, excursions regularly took place to the surrounding countryside in the afternoon after the Walk. In the early twentieth century the Saturday after Walking Day was also when trips took place, usually by train or bus to the seaside. At this time the fair in Victoria Park (or Alford Park) began, bringing noise, fun and many exciting rides to the town.There are also many other smaller walking days around Warrington every summer, in areas such as Grappenhall, Orford, Padgate, Penketh, Stockton Heath, Stretton and Winwick, to name but a few, and as they take place on open roads, there are floats and dancers as well as the walkers and the bands.

Assassin's Creed Origins is an action-adventure video game developed by Ubisoft Montreal and published by Ubisoft. It is the tenth major installment in the Assassin's Creed series and the successor to 2015's Assassin's Creed Syndicate. It was released worldwide for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One on October 27, 2017. The game is set in Ancient Egypt during the Ptolemaic period and recounts the secret fictional history of real-world events. The story explores the origins of the centuries-long conflict between the Brotherhood of Assassins, who fight for peace by promoting liberty and The Order of the Ancients—forerunners to the Templar Order—who desire peace through the forceful imposition of order. Origins received positive reviews from critics, who praised the story, voice acting, immersive world of Egypt and visuals, while criticizing some of the pacing and technical issues. Despite this, some critics called it the best installment of the series since 2013's Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag.

Cropredy has ancient origins, a chapel in the church is dedicated to St Fremund, an anglo-saxon saint thought to be the son of King Offa. It's name combines the Old English croppe or hill and ridig, a small stream. The village is only a few miles from Banbury, in hilly country along the banks of the River Cherwell. Before the Dissolution of the Monasteries Cropredy belonged the Bishop of Lincoln. More recently Brasenose College, Oxford, has become a significant landlord giving it's name to the local pub.

 

Dramatic changes to centuries of agrarian life were heralded by the excavation of the Oxford canal which runs alongside the Cherwell south-east of the church. This busy waterway was superseded by the Great Western railway, the village even had it's own station until 1956.

 

Unusually Cropredy retains the ringing of the curfew bell, in Medieval times this was a signal to return home and 'cover their fires'. Roger Lupton local priest between 1487 and 1528 was so lost in dense fog that he could only find his way from nearby Chacombe by the ringing of Cropredy's bells. He founded a fund in gratitude which paid for the daily winding of the clock and tolling the bell morning, noon and night. The bell is still rung Tuesday and Thursday nights for five minutes after eight O'clock.

 

The village is best known for the Civil War 'Battle of Cropredy Bridge'. A rare Royalist victory at a time when the Parliamentary forces were in the ascendancy. In June 1644 the King slipped out of Oxford to avoid two Roundhead armies which were rapidly approaching. At this point the Earl of Essex chose to lead his army south and relieve the siege of Lyme Regis leaving Sir William Waller to pursue the King with half of the men. Waller shadowed the Royal army to Worcester only for the King to double back towards Banbury where the Parliamentary commander saw an opportunity to split the Royal forces which were strung out along the Daventry road. Waller's artillery crossed Cropredy bridge but were too far ahead of the infantry and were overrun. Fierce fighting followed but neither side achieved a significant advantage and a chance of capturing the King was lost. As children we were told stories of a phantom drummer boy.

 

Cropredy's most prominent claim to fame is their music festival founded when Fairport Convention played the village fete in 1976. Cropredy Music Festival grew from these modest beginnings and now attracts over 20,000 music fans every year.

 

St. Mary the Virgin is an impressive building constructed from the local rust-coloured ironstone. While part of the wall of the south aisle has been dated to c1050 the present church begins in the 13th century with significant 14th and 15th century additions. The south wall has two tomb recesses thought to be built for Simon de Cropredy and his son c1200. The church has an interesting 13th century parish chest and the chapel dedicated to the anglo-saxon saint Fremund has two 15th century screens, one of which has the initials AD which may stand for Alice Danvers. The nave arcading, tower and choir arches are Perpendicular in style with no capitals and continuous moulding from ground level. The tower is early 15th century with the belfry and parapets added 80 years later, There are eight bells, six from the late 17th century, two added in 2007 called Fairport and Villager. Fragments of a Doom survive above the chancel arch. The church has a 17th century pulpit and a rare pre-reformation eagle lectern which is said to have been hidden in the river before the Battle of Cropredy where it lost one of it's lion feet. The beak has a slot for collecting 'Peter's Pence'. There is a beautiful 15th century head of the Virgin Mary in stained glass which was found in the churchyard. There are two fonts, one Norman and one Victorian. In the tower is a magnificent clock by John Moore of Clerkenwell dated 1831.

 

Cropredy is just off the Daventry road a few miles from Banbury about an hour from Stratford-upon-Avon.

The origins of the Bristol Royal Hospital for Children can be traced to 1866 when a house in Royal Fort Road, Clifton, was set aside for "sick children and for the outdoor treatment of women". The hospital was established by Liberal politician Mark Whitwell, who laid down the principle that any child, no matter how poor, would be admitted provided there was room.

 

Within 20 years, the hospital was treating 900 women and 2,000 children annually. The hospital moved to a new site on St Michael's Hill in 1885, providing 88 beds and cots and seven beds for women. The hospital was granted its Royal status by Queen Victoria in 1897.

 

The hospital survived bomb damage during the Bristol Blitz to become incorporated into the newly-formed National Health Service in 1948. By the end of the last century, the building had become outdated, with advances in technology and rising demand for services. A major public fund-raising campaign was launched to build a purpose-built, exciting and child-friendly new building. The new hospital, adjacent to the BRI, was opened by HRH Prince Charles in 2001. A dynamic arts programme continues to enhance the environment and help young patients' recovery.

On our "day off" we had a morning in Herculaneum (near the modern Ercolano).

 

It is a site similar to Pompeii, but much smaller.

 

We had a guide who took us around the ruins of this Roman town (with audio guide and ear piece to listen to her).

 

Herculaneum was founded by Hercules according to mythological tradition, but actually had Greek origins.

 

The Greeks of Neopolis and Cumae ruled Herculaneum from the 6th century BC, while in the 5th century BC the Samnites gained control. Between the 2nd and 1st centuries BC, Herculaneum took part in the allie's war against Rome, but in 89 BC it was conquered and transformed into a municpium.

 

In 63 AD the town was hit by an earthquake. And by 79 AD Vesuvius erupted engulfing it an a huge river of boiling mud and debris which totally covered it.

As the social-ecological-agricultural transformation of the New England landscape into patches of woodlots, pasture, and planting fields (the majority of land was open fields by the early 1800’s) shifted towards another phase of transformation during industrialization and urbanization –as happened here in Worcester at the crown headwaters region of the Blackstone River- white pines quickly established populations on old abandoned farmland by outcompeting and growing faster than other trees. The “old field white pine” forests became so abundant across the northeastern U.S. that forest mappers identified much of New England as the “ White Pine Region” at the turn of last century.

 

The overall trend of forest regeneration during industrialization continued through to the post-industrial present where 60-95% of New England landscape is now forest cover. White pine populations began to decrease in the late 1800’s, however, due to the development of a logging industry that now centers on the hardwood species ( oak, maple, beech, etc.) that grew in succession under white pine trees and upon cut pinelands. White pine wood was used for building containers such as boxes and barrels, as well as for ship masts during colonial times due to its ability to grow tall and straight.

 

One winter day just before the new year of 1852, Henry David Thoreau, stood on Fair Haven Hill in Concord, and observed two men sawing down a white (“noble”) pine. He eulogized the felled tree, stating “ a plant which has taken two centuries to perfect, rising by slow stages into the heavens, has this afternoon ceased to exist….why does not the village bell sound a knell”. Acutely aware of the likely diminishment of wildlife, Thoreau wondered about a hen-hawk that “will mourn for the pines lofty enough to protect her brood.”

 

Endlessly observant and inquisitive, however, Thoreau returned the next day to measure the tree’s age and height and found the 105 foot tree was only ninety-four years old, while an even taller (115 ft) and slight older (ninety-six) white pine – four feet in diameter- was lying beside it; a testimony to how fast the white pine could grow. Thoreau’s follow through represents science and poetry intertwined.

 

The tallest living white pine is 167 feet tall ( a dozen feet shy of the Holy Name wind turbine hub), growing in a deeply forested area with rich soils (PA state). Trees growing in exposed areas are much shorter due to losing their leaders from events such as ice storms, wherein the tree forms flat tops. The central Massachusetts Ice Storm of 2008 caused wide spread felling and leader loss of white pines; gun cracking sounds were created at night as leaders and branches snapped and fell to the ground.

 

White pines needlelike leaves, in groups of five; cones are 4 to 7 inches in length, and with age bark become thick, broad, with rectangular ridges. White pines are also abundant in Northeast swamps. Can tolerate long periods of wet and dry soil.

"Ely Cathedral is an Anglican cathedral in the city of Ely, Cambridgeshire, England.

 

The cathedral has its origins in AD 672 when St Etheldreda built an abbey church. The present building dates back to 1083, and cathedral status was granted it in 1109. Until the Reformation it was the Church of St Etheldreda and St Peter, at which point it was refounded as the Cathedral Church of the Holy and Undivided Trinity of Ely, continuing as the principal church of the Diocese of Ely, in Cambridgeshire. It is the seat of the Bishop of Ely and a suffragan bishop, the Bishop of Huntingdon. Architecturally it is outstanding both for its scale and stylistic details. Having been built in a monumental Romanesque style, the galilee porch, lady chapel and choir were rebuilt in an exuberant Decorated Gothic. Its most notable feature is the central octagonal tower, with lantern above, which provides a unique internal space and, along with the West Tower, dominates the surrounding landscape. Ely Cathedral is a major tourist destination, receiving around 250,000 visitors per year, and sustains a daily pattern of morning and evening services.

 

Ely is built on a 23-square-mile (60 km2) Kimmeridge Clay island which, at 85 feet (26 m), is the highest land in the Fens. Major rivers including the Witham, Welland, Nene and Great Ouse feed into the Fens and, until draining commenced in the 17th century, formed freshwater marshes and meres within which peat was laid down. There are two Sites of Special Scientific Interest in the city: a former Kimmeridge Clay quarry, and one of the United Kingdom's best remaining examples of medieval ridge and furrow agriculture.

 

The economy of the region is mainly agricultural. Before the Fens were drained, the harvesting of osier (willow) and sedge (rush) and the extraction of peat were important activities, as were eel fishing—from which the settlement's name may have been derived—and wildfowling. The city had been the centre of local pottery production for more than 700 years, including pottery known as Babylon ware. A Roman road, Akeman Street, passes through the city; the southern end is at Ermine Street near Wimpole and its northern end is at Brancaster. Little direct evidence of Roman occupation in Ely exists, although there are nearby Roman settlements such as those at Little Thetford and Stretham. A coach route, known to have existed in 1753 between Ely and Cambridge, was improved in 1769 as a turnpike (toll road). The present-day A10 closely follows this route; a southwestern bypass of the city was built in 1986. Ely railway station, built in 1845, is on the Fen Line and is now a railway hub, with lines north to King's Lynn, northwest to Peterborough, east to Norwich, southeast to Ipswich and south to Cambridge and London." - info from Wikipedia.

Le origini della Rocca di Bazzano, a dispetto della leggenda che la vuole costruita da Matilde di Canossa, risalgono ad una data incerta ma sicuramente anteriore al Mille, nel periodo in cui in tutta l'area padana sorgevano castella o castra in difesa dalle invasioni barbariche. Nel 1038 il Vescovo di Modena Guiberto concede in enfiteusi il castello e la chiesa di Santo Stefano al Marchese Bonifacio di Canossa, padre di Matilde, la quale lo riceverà in eredità all'età di nove anni. Morta Matilde senza eredi il castello torna a Modena.

Le prime mura della fortezza vennero costruite nel 1218. Nel corso del Duecento la Rocca viene assediata dai Bolognesi per ben due volte: nel 1228 con risultato negativo e nel 1247, quando invece i Bolognesi riuscirono ad espugnarla, pare per un tradimento, e diedero ordine di demolirla completamente facendo trasportare le pietre a Monteveglio, dove furono utilizzate per una casa torre destinata ai funzionari bolognesi di quel borgo. La fortezza fu in seguito ricostruita da Azzo VIII d'Este tra il 1296 e il 1311.

Nel 1317 venne ricostruito anche il cassero posto sulla porta d'ingresso delle mura, l'attuale torre dell'orologio. Dopo il 1371 i marchesi d'Este ampliarono le mura della Rocca (la porta d'ingresso di queste nuove mura è da identificarsi probabilmente con l'arco posto alcuni metri più in basso del cassero scendendo verso il paese (l'ingresso sud, dal quale passano le auto, risale invece a fine '800, quando venne costruito l'attuale cimitero).

L'aspetto attuale dell'edificio risale però all'epoca rinascimentale, quando Giovanni II Bentivoglio lo trasformò in "delizia" signorile destinata alle vacanze in campagna. Dell'antico nucleo tardoduecentesco rimangono solo la torre sul lato sud e l'ala attigua. Per il resto i nuovi muri a filari alternati di laterizi e ciottoli vengono interamente intonacati e parzialmente ricoperti di pitture, di cui sono conservate solo poche tracce. Anche i merli a coda di rondine sono ridotti a puri motivi decorativi.

 

Hellfest 2017 Clisson 44

Le Hellfest, également appelé Hellfest Summer Open Air, est un festival de musique français spécialisé dans les musiques extrêmes, annuellement organisé au mois de juin à Clisson en Loire-Atlantique. Sa forte fréquentation le fait figurer parmi les plus importants festivals de musique français. Il est aussi l'un des plus grands festivals de metal en Europe et le premier en France.

 

Il trouve son origine dans un autre festival musical, le Furyfest, qui se tient de 2002 à 2005 dans différents lieux des Pays de la Loire ; le Hellfest en prend la suite en 2006 puis connaît, en quelques années, une hausse continue de sa fréquentation, passant de 22 000 pour la première édition à 152 000 entrées payantes en 2015.

 

Sa programmation est avant tout centrée sur le hard rock et le metal pour les deux scènes principales, tandis que chacune des quatre autres scènes du festival est dédiée à un style plus particulier comme le black metal, le death metal, le punk hardcore, le doom metal ou le stoner rock, s'assurant ainsi la présence de groupes tels que Iron Maiden, Deep Purple, ZZ Top, Motörhead et KISS, tout autant que celle de Slayer, Megadeth, Sepultura, Cannibal Corpse ou Anthrax.

Historic context :

 

The 58 n°1 trench mortar designed by the Commandant Duchêne was widely appreciated on the French frontline as soon as January 15 in the trench warfare. But although the exceptional celerity of its development allowed to answer to the emergency situation faced by the French armies missing this kind of weapon, it did not leave time for bringing solutions to its relative instability and the relative lack of power of its 16 kg bomb, nor improvements to some balistic properties such as precision and range.

 

Therefore, immediately after the frontline firtst shots of the new weapon, the Commandant Duchene was asked to go back to Bourges and design the next generation of this too rudimentary : the new version came real quick, more robust, equipped with a more stable carriage, orientable in direction by pivoting against a curved plateI, with improved range, and able to throw bombs more powerful than the 16 kg fin-tail bomb.

 

The result of this once again rapid development made again by the Commandant Duchêne and of the Ateliers de Bourges, under the supervision of the General Dumézil, was named 'mortier de 58 n°2', and directly ordered to a Saint Etienne private manufacturer as soon as the second week of February 1915 (140 pieces). Deliveries to the armies started from April 1915.

 

The weight increase was moderate so that the weapon remained transportable to the first lines by men or donkeys in several loads or on a wheeled trailer, with its accessories including a wooden beams base. The improvements allowed the mortar to fire a larger variety of different weight fin-tail bombs (16 kg bomb of the mortier de 58 n°1, 40 kg 'D' bomb, 18 kg 'LS' bomb, 35 kg 'DLS' bomb, 20 kg '1917 A' bomb, ...) to distances from 445 to 1450 m.

 

This exceptionally robust and simple weapon was reckognized a great success. Starting with 498 pieces in october 1915, the French army owned more than 815 such mortars in march 1916, 1268 in may 1917 and 2396 in January 1918. There still 1699 by November 1918. Several improvement were bring during the war, including different wooden bases, the integration of a wheeled screw for the vertical pointing, and a percussion firing device (Forgeat).

 

This mortar was the backbone of the French trench artillery and was used efficiently on all fronts. Its quantities were 276 in June 1915, 779 in March 1916, 1268 in May 1917, 1766 in January 1918 and 1158 in November 1918. It was in service in several France allies armies such as Belgium, Italy and USA.

Ginkgo vem do chinês Yin (prata) e Hing (alperce) em referência à aparência das suas sementes. É uma planta dióica (cada árvore tem o seu sexo próprio) que simboliza o macho e a fêmea para os budistas, que a plantam à frente dos santuários. É uma planta venerada na cultura chinesa e japonesa; as suas folhas, douradas no Outono, foram utilizadas como moeda. Foi introduzida na Europa em 1730, nos parques e centros urbanos, porque tem uma boa facilidade de adapatação e de resistência à poluição. Foi a primeira árvore que renasceu depois da bomba de Hiroshima.

According to some authors, its origin is in the year 1431, when it was founded by the Duke of Medina Sidonia in the monastery of Santa María and Santo Domingo de Silos, 1 2 of the Order of San Benito. However, this foundation would have to be attributed to the Count of Niebla, who would assume the duchy of Medina Sidonia after its creation in 1445 by Juan II.3 Other authors believe that its foundation was in 1477, which is when its first rules are approved. 4 These rules are approved by the Bishop of Cádiz, Pedro Fernández Solís.3 The original name of the brotherhood was the Brotherhood of Power and Transfer of Our Lady and Honor of Saint John the Baptist.

With the government of the Sevillian diocese of Gutiérrez Álvarez de Toledo (1439-1492) the brotherhood moved from the monastery of Santo Domingo de Silos to the chapel of the monastery of Santiago de la Espada.3 In this chapel was also the tomb of the founder of the monastery, the bishop of Badajoz, Lorenzo Suárez Figueroa, buried there in 1461.3

In 1544, the archbishop of Seville, Fray Gaspar de Loaysa, granted a chapel to the fraternity in the convent of Our Lady of the Valley, of the Franciscan friars. The church of this convent is today the sanctuary of Our Father Jesus of Health. By works of improvement in the Franciscan convent, they had to return to Santiago de la Espada between 1575 and 1583.3

Already in the sixteenth century it is documented that the holders of the brotherhood were a Nazarene with the cross on their backs, a crucified and a Virgin accompanied by the Apostle Saint John. However, the current Nazarene of the brotherhood is the work of Juan de Mesa in 1620 and he was processioned for the first time in 1621, leaving the convent of Valle.3

The following rules date from 1570. They remained in force until the approval of new ones in 1781.5

Between 1697 and 1703 the brotherhood had its seat in the convent of San Acacio, of the Augustinian order.6 In 1703, and thanks to the cession of a chapel owned by the Perogullano family, it was definitively established in the parish church of San Lorenzo . That chapel, of Mudejar style, was reformed in the XVIII and XIX centuries. In 1965 his new headquarters were built, which is located in the same square, adjacent to the church of San Lorenzo.7 In 1992, John Paul II granted this temple the rank of minor basilica.8 The chapel used by this brotherhood It was used by the Brotherhood of the Dulce Nombre.9 Next to the basilica is the brotherhood house, also from the 60's. Behind the parish, in Hernán Cortés street, there is a building from 1926 where the brotherhood keeps some Valuable objects, such as the passage of mystery.

Blessed Diego José de Cádiz was a brother10 and Blessed Marcelo Spínola was an honorary older brother.11 The dukes of Montpensier were also included in the list of brothers.12 In 1995 the City Council awarded the Jesus of Great Power the Gold Medal of the City of Seville.13

Throughout history it has had some litigations, concerning the precedence of step by the official race, with the brotherhoods of the Carretería and the Macarena.14

Since 2010, sister women can perform a penance season at the cathedral in an official career.

In June 2010 at the basilica of the Great Power, during a kissing that took place at the end of the Mass at 8:30 in the afternoon, a disturbed man hit the Christ several times in the chest and took his arm, 15 after which he was arrested and sentenced to 9 months in prison.16 The Christ was later restored by Álvarez Duarte.

The Great Power has been known as the "Lord of Seville" for the great devotion that is professed.17 18 19

It was one of the brotherhoods called to the Via Crucis de la Fe in Seville, which was celebrated on February 17, 2013. However, the steps did not come because of the rain. 20

In 2015, the film critic Carlos Colón and the director Carlos Varela premiered a film to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the construction of the basilica.21

Maître Sêvê Izol-Aydin rappelle que, sur les vingt-deux millions d’habitants de la Syrie, son pays d’origine, trois millions sont des Kurdes, répartis essentiellement dans deux provinces frontalières de la Turquie plus une autre qui n’est pas connexe aux deux précédentes. C’est là un résultat du dessein du parti Ba’ath au pouvoir de « ceinture arabe » pour diviser géographiquement les Kurdes de Syrie et les couper de ceux de Turquie et d’Irak, le but étant de les affaiblir à l’intérieur du pays.

 

Les Kurdes de Syrie ont toujours été organisés en partis politiques kurdes, fait qui prend toute son importance aujourd’hui puisque, depuis la répression sanglante des Frères Musulmans d’opposition en 1982, aucune forme d’opposition politique structurée en Syrie ne s’était plus fait connaître, l'opposition n'ayant été depuis lors qu'un acte INDIVIDUEL. Parfois réprimée, parfois tolérée par Damas, cette opposition kurde a ainsi fait face seule jusqu’en 2004.

 

En 1962, une loi a privé près de 300 000 Kurdes de Syrie de la nationalité syrienne, faisant d’eux des apatrides et les privant de tout droit civil ou politique dans leur propre pays. Aujourd’hui, ce sont quelques 470 000 qui sont concernées. La restitution de la nationalité ainsi que des terres confisquées après l’adoption de la loi de 1962 est en toute logique l’une des revendications principales des partis politiques, de même que l’est la reconnaissance culturelle, notamment linguistique, des Kurdes de Syrie.

 

Contrairement à leurs voisins turcs ou irakiens, souligne Maître Sêvê Izol-Aydin, les Kurdes de Syrie n’ont JAMAIS eu recours à la lutte armée – même si, aujourd’hui, certains y viennent, contexte national oblige.

 

Cela n’empêche que, dans l’ensemble, non seulement les Kurdes de Syrie se sont toujours refusés à prendre les armes mais, dans leur lutte non-violente, ils n’ont jamais même demandé l’autonomie ou l’indépendance d’un Etat qui leur soit propre. Ils ont toujours réclamé la jouissance de leurs droits DANS LE CADRE des frontières syriennes existantes.

 

Cependant, 2004 a donc marqué une rupture, A cette époque, lorsque Maître Sêvê Izol-Aydin plaidait devant la Cour nationale du Droit d’Asile pour des demandeurs kurdes de Syrie dont le dossier avait été rejeté par l’OFPRA, elle avouait aux juges que cela lui faisait mal de dire que son client était persécuté et privé de liberté d’expression du fait spécifique de son origine kurde ; ce sont TOUS LES SYRIENS, soulignait-elle alors devant les magistrats, qui subissaient le déni de cette liberté d’expression, ce qui était déjà le cas en 1962.

 

Mais en 2004 donc, les régions kurdes se sont soulevées, à l’issue d’un match de football entre une équipe arabe et une équipe kurde qui a dégénéré en affrontement général, les supporters arabes en étant sortis indemnes et ceux de l’équipe kurde ayant été les seuls à voir couler leur sang. Le lendemain, lors de l’enterrement des six d’entre eux qui y ont laissé leur vie, des slogans en kurde ont été scandés, auxquels ont répondu les balles des forces de l’ordre. Ce fut le début du soulèvement.

 

Aussitôt, le régime de Damas a usé de calomnie envers les insurgés. Leur révolte, alléguait Bachar al-Assad, n’a rien à voir avec le match de football ; poussés par les Kurdes d’Irak, les Kurdes de Syrie auraient déclenché leur insurrection pour provoquer une intervention militaire des Etats-Unis contre le pays. Ce faisant, le gouvernement central savait très bien que, pour une opinion publique syrienne hypersensible, prononcer les noms « Etats-Unis » ou « Israël », c’était à coup sûr ouvrir la voie à une vague de haine contre leurs (non-)compatriotes kurdes et de violence à leur endroit, puisqu’ils devenaient des « collaborateurs » de ces deux Etats honnis en Syrie. Et en effet, le peuple syrien n’a apporté AUCUN soutien au peuple kurde lors de ce soulèvement.

 

Trente-six personnes ont été tuées, 2 700 ont été arrêtées. Dès le lendemain des funérailles des supporters tués, ce sont les Kurdes de toutes les grandes villes du pays, qui sont au bas mot 500 000, qui se sont levés. Leur capacité de mobilisation a été un choc pour le régime.

 

A partir de 2004, la répression et la discrimination se sont faites systématiques à l’encontre des Kurdes de Syrie. Des milliers de personnes ont été arrêtées, et en 2010, une communauté kurde de Syrie déjà très pauvre, puisque privée de tout droit économique et social du fait d’une absence totale d’identité légale syrienne, a été frappée par un boycott total des autorités.

 

Jusque là employés « sans papiers » dans le bâtiment et la restauration, les Kurdes ont été frappés par une loi qui INTERDISAIT à présent l’emploi de quiconque ne possède pas de papiers syriens en règle ; ils ont donc tous perdu leur travail. Tout employeur qui se risquait à y contrevenir encourait une amende de 150 000 livres syriennes (sachant que le salaire mensuel moyen est de 5 000), et surtout, une peine de cinq ans d’emprisonnement.

 

Même la profondeur des puits pour l’agriculture a été réglementée, réduisant à néant le dernier moyen de subsistance d’une population kurde interdite d’emploi, et enfin, la vente de terres kurdes a été elle aussi mise hors la loi, empêchant ainsi les Kurdes de Syrie y compris de vendre leur terre en désespoir de cause.

 

Autant dire que, lorsque la révolution syrienne s’est déclenchée le 15 mars 2011, les Kurdes syriens étaient totalement écrasés. Espérant les rallier à sa cause et éteindre leur révolte, le Gouvernement syrien a aussitôt abrogé la loi de 1962 et rendu leur nationalité aux Kurdes devenus apatrides. Mais c’était trop tard, car la révolte kurde était lancée et se poursuit aujourd’hui encore.

 

Cette révolte ne doit pas être confondue, néanmoins, avec celle de l’Armée syrienne libre dont les troupes affrontent celles de Bachar al-Assad. Outre que la lutte des Kurdes est par nature NON-VIOLENTE, elle ne peut se rallier à l’Armée syrienne libre car celle-ci n’est PAS un pur produit du rejet de Bachar al-Assad par le peuple syrien ; en son sein combattent des unités salafistes étrangères et même des groupes d’Al-Qaïda ! Les Kurdes de Syrie ne peuvent rejoindre de tels individus au sein d’un même combat.

 

Certains interprètent ce refus kurde de se rallier à l’opposition armée comme un SOUTIEN au régime de Bachar al-Assad. Faux ! COMMENT les Kurdes pourraient-ils soutenir cette dictature dont ils ont toujours été les cibles de choix ? Encore aujourd’hui, les Kurdes manifestent, ils contestent le régime et veulent sa chute. Mais ils revendiquent le droit à une TROISIÈME VOIE, car ils récusent tout autant l’idéologie salafiste qui l’a emporté au sein de l’Armée libre, financée et soutenue par la Turquie, le Qatar et l’Arabie saoudite et dont les unités tentent de s’infiltrer à présent dans les régions kurdes.

 

En octobre 2005, plusieurs partis politiques, kurdes et non-kurdes, islamistes, socialistes, communistes et autres, ont créé une plateforme d’opposition qui a pris le nom de DÉCLARATION DE DAMAS, laquelle est représentée par une section française dont Maître Sêvê Izol-Aydin est précisément la Présidente. La Déclaration se veut pluraliste et laïque, et surtout, elle insiste sur les DROITS DES FEMMES, lesquels constituent de toute façon une priorité naturelle pour les partis politiques kurdes – mais pas forcément pour l’Armée libre ou le Conseil national syrien qui, au mieux, s’en moque et, au pire, accepte aujourd’hui des concessions à l’idéologie islamiste qui la finance.

 

Cependant, les Kurdes ne doivent pas rester à l’écart. Ils doivent améliorer leur coordination avec le Conseil et tenter de changer les choses de l’intérieur, un « front du refus » ne pouvant être d’aucune utilité pour vaincre le régime de Bachar al-Assad.

 

Aujourd’hui, des groupes armés existent parmi les Kurdes de Syrie, mais ceux-ci ont pour but de protéger la population tant des attaques de l’armée régulière que des tentatives d’implantation de l’Armée libre. Et il ne s’agit pas seulement de la population kurde proprement dite – dans ces zones, comme en Irak, l’on trouve aussi des Chrétiens qui y ont trouvé refuge, qu’ils soient assyriens, arméniens ou même arabes. Jusqu’ici, cette dissuasion semble fonctionner, mais la situation demeure très fragile.

 

Une question en particulier pose problème, celle des FEMMES, qui sont entièrement exclues des instances supérieures de l’opposition syrienne. Au sein du Conseil national syrien, elles sont scrupuleusement tenues à l’écart au profit des hommes, et pourtant, jadis, elles ont constitué la majeure partie des opposants individuels au régime de Bachar al-Assad. Pourquoi ?
