The name of Iraq is equal meaning of southern Mesopotamia in Arabic and anciently engaged by Arabic and Semitic populations. Correspondingly, North and South of Mesopotamia were never united, neither geographically, economically nor demographically. However, the outbreak of Kurdish conflict took place with the construction of this state with frontiers drowned by the British who wanted to control the production of petrol in the area. The North of Mesopotamia was for a long time a part a large country that Arabians called “Jazirah” it’s a mountainous area and anciently peopled by Kurds, Armenians and later Turkmens. However, most of the Arabian of Iraq was Shiite, in conflict to Sunnite Kurds.

Since after the creation of Iraq, Kurdish people revolted and fought against British and Arabic of Iraq. Despite the fact that 1953 revolution that suppressed monarchist establishment Kurdish problem did not solved. After all Iraq establishments guaranteed the political and cultural rights of Kurds however, the conflict never stopped because of bad will of Iraqian authorities to accept the Kurdish autonomy.
On the other hand the persecution reached its climax during the war between Iran and Iraq which was in 1980-1988. However, when Iran tried to arm Kurd inhabitants against to Saddam Hussein, he wanted to defuse them, its Kurdish population. After war there were a lot of forfeit which includes; it’s about 5.000 villages were destroyed, some regions were fully burnt down with napalm, and some others were steadily depopulated. So 182.000 persons disappeared in the region of Germiyan and most of them were secretly executed. After Gulf War the process supply reassure that set up a secure area in Northern Iraq for defending the Kurds against what it remains of the Iraq army, Kurds could create a sort of autonomy in spite of embargo that deprived the Kurdish regions and the brutal disagreement contrasting the two fundamental political factions : KPD and PUK. But the regular raids of the Turkish troops in this area and the parched earth strategy experienced with napalm along the Turkish frontier bothered this hope of a Kurdish state. Bombardments intended on the record to destroy the military basis of PKK( Kurdistan Party Workers), but Turkey wanted basically to control the territories of Mosul and Kirkuk, that it never stop to claim since the set up of the border by Britannic.

Now, I know a whole lot of nothing about this topic, but as you said;
"However, the publication of Kurdish books or reviews is forbiden, as the learning of the Kurdish language, though it is allowed for the Armenians of Syria."
This seems like a huuuuuuuuuuuge deal to me. Banning of books? Restriction of language? What is next? Restriction of human rights? Reminds me of the Nazis burning books in WW2.
In fact it reminds me of a lot of things...
yea... the easiest example that you could understand would be maori problem in NZ..Similarly, Kurdish people had a country many years ago and Turkish people came in from lots of other places and there was one very clever Turkish lider,Kurdish people and turkish people fought for country and they got strong and strong this time They started to fight against Kurds and eveything forbidden for Kurds such as language, culture, tv chanels, books, music...and so on..
I hope its more clear to you this is my knowledge from what i read what i saw and what i heard from my parents and so on but there are stil as you said hugeeeee thing...
