Mountains are heaven on earth. It has been like that from the existence of humanity. Life has become beautiful in the harmony of the mountains.
The mountains have always been the most important shelters for humanity, even though their inaccessibility creates difficulties. Invasions and persecutions have been defeated by the steep cliffs, high peaks, lush forests and harsh waters of the mountains.
Free life has always been lived in the bosom of the mountains. This is what it means to be in the mountains for the fighters of Kurdistan. YJA Star guerrilla Roj Argeş says the following about Xakurkê, one of the most beautiful mountains in Kurdistan: "Xakurkê is the guerrilla's paradise, Xakurkê is a mother to the guerrilla. Just as a mother protects, cares and raises her child, so Xakurkê raises and protects the guerrilla."
Although the Xakurkê area has been a place of heavy war for years, Roj Argeş, said this about her being in Xakurkê: "The first place I joined was the area of Xakurkê, so my devotion to this area is different. Just as a person is born somewhere, I feel that I was born again in the Xakurkê area.
Xakurkê is a place of defense for the guerrilla. Every stone, tree, protects you. When we look at history, many people have come and gone. One of them is Alexander the Great. While passing through Xakurkê, he said ‘it is paradise’. Indeed, Xakurkê is the guerilla's paradise. Why is the guerrilla so attached to this territory? Because there are historical ruins in Xakurkê and you can see traces of ancient humanity in its mountains, stones, rocks and caves. You can feel the times of humanity around here. We feel the history most because we live together with nature."
Guerrilla Roj Argeş says about the heroism in Xakurkê: "I stayed in the area of Xakurkê for a long time. To be a guerrilla in such a paradise gives us great power. It is a historical place as well as a land that has been the cradle of resistance. Thousands of friends have shown their heroism here. Just as heval Beritan, who became immortal by fighting heroically against betrayal, thousands of our heroic female and male friends in Xakurke have become immortal like Heval Beritan. They are examples with their lives, their companionship, their anger towards the enemy. Our duty is to be worthy of these heroes and vindicate them."
