On her Facebook profile, it says “When we can’t dream any longer we die”. Now Kurdish nationalist media and parties are using this brutal murder for their own nationalist agenda that spreads hates towards Arabs and does not want to see a diverse Iraq. Sheelan was clearly an activist of the Iraqi October Revolution where she was fighting against all those in power, defending her dreams for a just an peaceful life. The pic in her profile shows the Turkish restaurant in Baghdad that had been occupied and transformed into a revolutionary space. Her death is tragic as the hopes of Iraq’s revolutionary youth are being smashed again and again. The instrumentalization by Kurdish nationalist media and parties is disgusting.
