PJAK : ウィキペディア英語版
Party of Free Life of Kurdistan

The Party of Free Life of Kurdistan〔(How to Handle the Kurds ), Time, Oct. 25, 2007.〕〔(Iraq's other Kurdish rebel group ), BBC, Dec. 19, 2007.〕 ((クルド語:پارتی ژیانی ئازادی کوردستان) or Partiya Jiyana Azad a Kurdistanê or PJAK, also known in English as Free Life Party of Kurdistan,〔(About PJAK ), PJAK Official Website.〕〔(Interview with the Secretary general of PJAK ), Chris Kutschera, September 2008.〕 Party for a Free Life in Kurdistan,〔(Iran shells PJAK positions in Iraq ), Today's Zaman, May 4, 2008.〕〔( Inevitable Iran-Turkey-Syria-Russia Alliance ), Fars, No.5, 2007.〕〔(Iran shells border villages near Sulaimaniya ), Radio Aswat Al-Iraq, May 2009.〕〔http://www.pjak.com/default.asp?p=press_so&intArticle=463&lang=SO〕 and sometimes referred to as PEJAK) is a Kurdish political and militant organisation which has waged an intermittent armed struggle since 2004 against the Iranian government to seek cultural and political rights and self-determination for Kurds in Iran.

Most experts describe PJAK as an offshoot of the Kurdistan Workers Party (PKK).〔Jane's intelligence digest:
the global early-warning service, P1, Jane's Information Group, 2009〕 Both groups are members of the Group of Communities in Kurdistan (Koma Civakên Kurdistan or KCK), an umbrella group of Kurdish political and insurgent groups in Turkey, Iran, Syria, and Iraq.〔(Kurdish Info - The PKK and PJAK fighters of Qendil )〕
The membership of PJAK's armed wing, the YRK, is estimated to be 3,000 and come from Iran, Turkey, Iraq, Syria, and the Kurdish diaspora. The group is considered a banned terrorist organisation by Iran, Turkey, and the United States.〔
==Policies and structure==

The exact history of PJAK is widely disputed. Turkey and Iran claim that PJAK is nothing more than an offshoot of the Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK).〔 According to some sources, members of the PKK founded the PJAK in 2004 as an Iranian equivalent to their leftist-nationalist insurgency against the Turkish government.
According to founding members of PJAK, however, the group began in Iran around 1997 as an entirely peaceful student-based human rights movement.〔 The group was inspired by the success of Iraq's Kurdish autonomous region and by the PKK's struggle in Turkey.〔 Discouraged by the failure of previous Kurdish revolts, however, PJAK's leaders initially worked only to maintain and build a Kurdish national identity and to thwart the Iranian government's attempts to re-brand Iranian Kurds as ethnic Persians or Aryans.〔 After a series of government crackdowns against Kurdish activists and intellectuals, the group's leadership moved to the safety of Iraqi Kurdistan in 1999.〔 There they settled in the area controlled by the PKK on the slopes of Mount Qandil—less than 10 miles from the Iranian border.〔 Once established at Qandil and operating under the PKK's security umbrella, PJAK adopted many of the political ideas and military strategies of jailed PKK leader Abdullah Ocalan, whose theories had initially inspired PJAK's founders while still in Iran.〔 The PKK's ideological influence also transformed PJAK from a civil rights movement to a more ambitious and multi-directional independence movement, aided by the transfer of many seasoned PKK fighters of Iranian origin into PJAK.〔
The present leader of the organisation is Abdul Rahman Haji Ahmadi. According to the Washington Times, half the members of PJAK are women, many of them still in their teens.〔(Tehran faces growing Kurdish opposition ), James Brandon, The Washington Times, April 3, 2006〕 The group actively recruits female guerrillas and states that its "cruelest and fiercest fighters" are women drawn to the movement's "radical feminism".〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Meet the Kurdish guerrillas who want to topple the Tehran regime. )
PJAK is a member of the ''Koma Civakên Kurdistan'' (KCK), which is an alliance of outlawed Kurdish groups and divisions led by an elected Executive Council. The KCK is in charge of a number of decisions under the movement, and often, release press statements on behalf of its members.
The PJAK also has sub-divisions:〔(İran karakoluna saldırıyı HRK üstlendi )〕
* PJAK's armed-wing - "East Kurdistan Defense Units" (Yekîneyên Parastina Rojhilatê Kurdistan, YRK);
* PJAK women's branch - "Women's Defence Forces" (Hêzên Parastina Jinê, HPJ), dedicated to serving women's interests within the group and women interests in general;
* Youth and student branch.
The PKK is also a member of KCK,〔〔 and according to the New York Times, the PJAK and PKK "appear to a large extent to be one and the same, and share the same goal: fighting campaigns to win new autonomy and rights for Kurds. The only difference is that the PJAK fights in Iran, and PKK fights in Turkey. They share leadership, logistics and allegiance to Abdullah Ocalan, the PKK leader currently imprisoned in Turkey."
Like the present PKK goals in Turkey, PJAK leaders say their long-term goals are to establish an autonomous Kurdish region within the Iranian state.〔 PJAK leadership claims that the group's goals are mainly focused on replacing Iran's theocracy with a "democratic and federal government", where "self-rule is granted to all ethnic minorities of Iran, including Arabs, Azeris, and Kurds".〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Terrorism Monitor - The Jamestown Foundation )
