Like every person on this planet i ask myself almost every day the following questions;
"Who am I?", "Where am I from?" and "How have I become what I am today?"
These are three major epistemological questions I think are very important to mankind but have also destroyed many people.
For the last 10 years I have been asking these questions over and over again. While asking the questions continuously in an almost obsessive way, I continued to improve my answers.
As a 18 year old Kurdish young man in 2004, I started searching for my identity in a time when I felt that I knew nothing about myself and even worse, my own people had conflicting information about the Kurdish nation.
Her-Kurd-buyn u her Kurd-Abin
But very early on I realized, I was not Persian, not an Arab and certainly not a mountain-Turk.
In search of those three questions I found a book named 'The Return of Planet X: Wormwood' written by Dr.Jaysen Q.Rand. This was a book about the cataclysms that might occur when a larger planet enters our solar system according astrologistsý and ancient civilizations.
Dr.Jaysen Q.Rand points out that many ancient civilizations talk about such a planet in different names but the most important and documented one is the Sumerian civilization, which is Eastern-Mesopotamia.
So I started researching this subject because I knew at that time most of Mesopotamia was Kurdistan, this kept me asking more questions.
The Sumer-Kurdish Connection
The Sumerians had one the oldest civilization on the planet and certainly in the Middle-East.
The civilization with the first system of law, the first formal educational system, the first tax cut, the first love song and the list goes on.
Coincidentally I thought? Actually quite naturally, with my current understanding, I came across a subject that mentions the names 'Kurds' and 'Kurdish' very often.
In the first few pages of the book, Dr.Rand mentions that the sumerians call this planet 'Nibiru'. He mentions that this planet is symbolized mostly in the 'Zartosht' religion, which is an ancient Kurdish religion, with ' a planet with a wing'.
In fact 'Sumer' or 'Shumer' was called 'Ki-En-Gir' (land of the civilized kings / Kingdom of the Blazing Fire) by people who lived there in that time 6000 years ago. The name 'Ki-En-Gir' was the original name of this ancient civilization, the first occupiers of 'Ki-En-Gir', the Akkadians changed the name to sumer.
Annunaki
The Sumerians had many 'Gods' called the 'Annunaki', according to some researchers like Dr.Zacharia Sithcin, the 'Annunaki Gods' were ancient extraterrestrials, according to some other researchers they are mythological gods, in any case they have names that we as Kurds understand after 6000 years.
Today the names of the those 'Annunaki' gods can still be found in important historic Kurdish cities and mythological places on monuments all over Kurdistan.
Dr.Zecharia Sitchin (1920-2010), one of the few scholars able to read and interpret ancient Sumerian clay tablets mentioned many times in his books that the ancient people of Sumer are the people who we call 'Kurds' today
Ki-En-Gir
So in 2014, after 10 years of research on this subject I was pretty sure the ancient people of 'Sumer' or more accurately 'Ki-En-Gir' were the Kurdish people who have been victims of a historic genocide that has no difference with any other genocides because we have suffered the consequences of this mis-informational agenda by our occupiers, especially in North-Kurdistan (Bakur), where the Turks, who came to our country a few hundred years ago call our proud ancient nation 'Mountain-Turks'.
Ki-En-Gir was Kurdish.
Even the 'Gir', in the name of 'Ki-En-Gir' is a Kurdish word (Gir-Girtn), unchanged after 6000 years.
I'm very happy to find out that a Kurdish researcher, 'Soran Hamaresh' has also come to the same conclusion and has documented this very accurately in his book 'Who are the Kurds?'

A new age
This is an important discovery, we as Kurds start to get answers about our origins, answers that have been hidden by our occupiers for many centuries, if not, hidden for ages.
We fully respect our Turkish, Arab and Persian brothers, and our aim is to live peacefully with every culture and nation but historic mistakes should be corrected.
We are not Persians, Turks or Arabs.
We are Kurdistani and still Ki-En-Gir'i, Ki-En (Kingdom), Gir (Blazing fire).
We are the Kingdom of the Blazing Fire.
