Houzan Mahmoud, representative of the Organisation of Women's Freedom in Iraq, voiced similar criticism in 2004, stating that "the Kurdish nationalist parties have violated women's rights and tried to suppress progressive women's organisations.

More than 8,000 women have died in "honour" killings since the (Kurdish) nationalists have been in control." The Guardian
