Jaani Dushman Kurdish Guide

Bollywood films have a long-standing history of popularity in Kurdistan and Iraq, often dubbed into the or Kurmanji dialects of Kurdish.

The Kurds do not have the luxury of forgetting who their enemies are. Every generation must learn the list: the Turkish general, the Ba'athist torturer, the ISIS executioner, the Iranian prosecutor, the Western diplomat who smiles and then signs a weapons deal with Ankara.

And so, the legend of Şêx Mihemed and his battle against Dushman lived on, serving as a reminder to the people of Kurdistan of the importance of standing against evil and promoting love, compassion, and understanding.
