"Until I knew I was a Kurd, I didn’t know who I was. Now I know who I am and I am willing to die for it..."—the words, not of a battle-hardened guerrilla, but of a teenage girl from Australia. This program shows little children singing that the Kurds will live forever as jets roar overhead; it introduces us to warlords and guerrilla camps; and it demonstrates how people who are threatened by genocide feel that a state of their own is their only protection. That is the bottom line of nationalism. (50 minutes)
