Turkey, Anarchist initiative, Farewell to comrade Vatan
Budak! (tr) (a-infos-en@ainfos.ca)
Yesterday we made Vatan's farewell who survived from Suruç bombing but was in hospital for
16 days because of serious woundings. Vatan who is a member of United Anarchist Attack
(Birlesik Anarsist Atak), with his comrades had gone to Suruç (Pirsus) for a gathering to
contribute reconstruction of Kobane which is organised by SGDF (Socialist Youth
Associations' Federation). ---- After the loss of Vatan, casualties were increased in
total to 32, and specifically for anarchist increased to 5. ---- The coffin which was
covered by red-black flag first moved to his parents' home then taken to the Karl?tepe
cemetery at 17:000. Upon request of his family the religious ceremony was made. After that
anarchists, SGDF and HDP activists made a commemorate ceremony by giving speeches.
Istanbul Anarchy Initiative, Land and Freedom Collective and Social War read a joint text
which is focising on Vatan's anarchist ideas and pratices. After the speeches given,
anarchists shouted some slogans like "Insurrection Revolution Anarchy". About 300 people
participated the funeral and some banners carried on which writes; "Suruç Martyr Vatan
Budak is immortal" and "Hearths in Suruç, Anger on the streets".
Joint text which was read in funeral:
WHILE WE ARE SENDING VATAN...
Vatan closed his eyes in the land that which the tyranny of state isn't/can't be enough
and somehow can't be finished. He fit his world which he created for himself and raise
steadily in Kobane and thereby he left it. No one should doubt it, as an anarchist he put
a brick of recreation. Now what remains for us, his anarchist comrades, is to combine the
anarchist ideas of Vatan with our anarchist struggle, then to complete everything which
are left half finished about life.
Long Live Anarchy, Long Live Revolution...
