"Artists Against War" have launched a petition against the Syria operation on change.org.
Seventy-nine artists have signed the petition that is published in Turkish, Kurdish and English:
"We have a solid reason to stand against militarist rhetoric, war, and destruction: We are the artist!
"We do not accept any form of imposition, oppression, and denial. All peoples, beliefs, and differences are our cultural heritage. Having control does not necessarily mean to invade or occupy. We desire a life in which sisterhood, sharing, and democracy dominate. Enough is enough! We do not want to witness deaths and to suffer any longer. No to war, lies, and pillage!"
