The fourth team of death
fast fighters are on their way.
“WE ARE
RESISTING, WE WILL RESIST… WE WILL WIN!”
On May 11, new larks flew off the
prisons of Turkey.
New fighters joined the existing death fast
fighters.
The response to the attacks, deceits
and maneuvers of tyranny was a new team of death fast volunteers.
In Edirne, Kandira, Sincan, Tekirdag
F-type prisons, Kartal special type of prison and in some other prisons where
political prisoners stay, tens of captives, 22 from the DHKP-C, declared that
they are on Death Fast on May 11. (*)
The captives replied the Justice
ministry’s demagogy, “since Article 16 has been modified, there is no reason to
continue the resistance anymore”, which could deceit no one, by increasing the
strength of resistance.
The causes, which required a massive resistance,
were still there. Besides, because of the massacre of December 19 and the
opening of F-type Nazi concentration camps, the causes are increased. Resistance Will Exist As Long As Tyranny Exists
The fourth teams of volunteers are a
response to the massacre, the ongoing isolation in cells and the torture of
forcible medical intervention that the death fast fighters subjected to.
The fourth teams of volunteers are
the expression of the determination saying, “even though hundreds of us will
die, this resistance will achieve victory”.
The fourth teams of volunteers are the expression
of the great sacrifice of the all captives who put their lives on the frontline
in order to make live the last standing captive with his or her own thoughts,
human rights and political identity. While putting their headbands on they
called out their last words.
We all heard them and continue to hear them.This time they
could not come together with their comrades to dance halay and put
their headbands on.
But this was only a non-significant
difference. In each cell where the fourth teams of death fast fighters stay,
again the same ceremony took place with the same spirit and enthusiasm.
One by one they put their headbands
on and cells witnessed this. They shout out their last messages to their
comrades and people.
They know and believe that, each of
their words, determination and enthusiasm in their each word will reach to their
destination.
Could the walls and isolation choke
their voice?
The Free Captivity is the symbol of
the best merits and custom of resistance in these soils.
They are the Free
Captives.
In their oath they have
said;
“I swear on my headband
which symbolise the honour of our people and I swear on my flag which takes its
colour from our martyrs’ blood that as a Free Captive I will fight and resist
against the public enemies who want to make our people and captives surrender,
until my last breath”
The symbol of resistance, that red flag, became
redder now and while each of them putting their headbands on they were taking up
the legacy of their 53 comrades.
They were also within the resistance
for months anyway. They were shoulder to shoulder with their comrades during the
massacre on December 19. They were resisting in the cells of Nazi camps. Except
the short breaks, they were standing by their comrades by being on hunger
strikes.
Now, as death fast fighters, they are
up front in this battle of willpower.
Tyranny have been carried out
numerous of maneuvers since December 9, in order to break the resistance. They
used all known types of tyranny.
They thought that, they would break
the resistance with a massacre, if it does not work, by torture,
with isolation, by keeping them apart, by intimidating and
silencing the people outside the prisons, and if none of them works, with
bribery and blackmail.
They were wrong.
The willpower, determination and
heroism of free captives smashed all their methods.
46 Captives fell martyr until now.
They thought that they could end the resistance by killing them.
No! Say the captives.
No! Say the fourth teams of death
fast fighters.
No! We are the people. You cannot
finish us by killing.
There are hundreds and thousands
more. They will announce the fifth, sixth, seventh teams of fighters if
necessary. The resistance will continue.
Until, they gained their right to
live with their own beliefs.
Until, the end of isolation and being able to live
together and collectively.
“We are resisting, we will resist… And we
will win!”
For months they have been on their
own in the cells. But they could not break their determination. They could break
neither their individual willpower nor organisational willpower.
Come on then, the media of Goebels,
why do you not write in your papers “they are on death fast because of the
pressure of the organisations”
You were saying “dormitories are like
liberated areas”. Why do you not write now “cells are like liberated areas”?
See, they still say “resistance, organisation and revolution” even in the cells.
Yes it is true. The cells are
liberated areas. Bu we are not talking about the prison cells. The cells of each
captive’s brains are the liberated areas. The system of tyranny cannot reach
there.
The filth of capitalism, fear of
tyranny and selfishness cannot make those cells surrender.
The system of tyranny is so weak and
hopeless that it tries to destroy the minds of captives by the form of torture
called “forcible medical intervention”.
Useless! The fourth teams of death
fast fighters say “useless!”
The captives shout, “your tyranny is
useless!”
The first and last words of captives is “WE
ARE RESISTING, WE WILL RESIST…AND WE WILL WIN!”
(*) The Fourth teams of volunteers is the mutual decision of all political
movements in prisons. Almost all the political movements’ captives took part in
the fourth teams. Here, we announce the names of fighters whose names reached to
us.
