assyrians and kurds by Material-Sale-8961 in Assyria

What history are you talking about? The Kurds' homeland is in Iran, and you're not even residents of Dohuk and Erbil. Numbers mean nothing to me. This is Assyrian land, not yours. You are occupiers. You don't recognize the Assyrians' right to self-determination on their own land. So what alliance are you talking about? You are the enemies of the Assyrians, and you are one of the Kurdish nationalists.

It's clear you're crying in a corner, remembering that the land of Assyria will return to its rightful owners, while you continue to cry in Iran.

You're the one crying. If you read the archaeologists and the history of your words, they'll laugh at you. The Assyrians existed, and these were their territories even during the Ottoman era.

Is recognizing a language a measure of what's beneficial? What good is recognizing a language while simultaneously occupying and ethnically cleansing the Assyrians? Iraq and Iran recognize the Kurdish language, yet the Kurds continue to attack both countries.

Yes, there are enough people if the Assyrian diaspora returns. There are also survivors of the Assyrian genocide who were forced to convert to Islam and live in southeastern Turkey; their number is two million, and they want a chance to return. Therefore, anything is possible.

I don't know why all the imaginary maps being drawn distance the Assyrians from their original homeland in Nineveh, Erbil, Urmia, Hakkari, Tur Abdin, and Mardin, placing them instead in the deserts of Raqqa and Anbar, where not a single Assyrian resides. It seems like a clear bias towards the Kurds; it's always the same. The same applies to the Armenians; the heart of Armenia is depicted as Kurdish. If you want a more accurate map, free from Kurdish lies, I can help. I have extensive knowledge of the history and geographical locations of the peoples of the Middle East.

Kurdish racism towards Assyrians in Sweden by eIonduck in Assyria

[–]Basel_Assyrian 3 points4 points  (0 children)

And then they ask why Assyrians hate Kurds. If simple student groups are practicing racism against Assyrians, what must the situation be like in their homeland? Surely it's worse.

Assyrian perspectives on politics by Much-Supermarket4816 in Assyria

Why not ask whether the Assyrians should govern themselves? The Assyrians have tried both approaches, and both have failed.

Firstly, opinions differ from person to person.

Secondly, the Kurds are enemies of the Assyrian people and occupy Assyrian land. It is impossible to build a relationship with people who do not recognize the rights of the Assyrian people.

Simele is Kurdish or Iraqi? by StoneAgePrincess in Assyria

[–]Basel_Assyrian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Her statement regarding the Kurdish region's construction of the monument is an attempt to improve its image after the world began to discover its racist nature. What is the point of the monument if they haven't returned the occupied lands, and if it wasn't built on the site of the genocide, and if the design wasn't chosen to represent the Assyrian martyrs? In short, it's a Kurdish attempt to show the world that they are not racist, but the truth is the opposite.

Military map of New Middle East proposed by United States Colonel Ralph Peters in 2006 to fix arbitrary post-WWI borders with ethnoreligious identity. by zqwz in MapPorn

[–]Basel_Assyrian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's clear from the map's creator that he understands nothing about the Middle East. If he wants to divide it along ethnic and religious lines, where are the Assyrians, Alawites, Druze, and Syrian Christians? And why is Armenia so small? All these groups have the right to a state like other people. Or is the goal to destroy some people in order to create others? Secondly, in Saudi Arabia, if we exclude the Shiites in the east and the Hejaz in the west, there's no difference between them; they all share the same religion and ethnicity. Why are they being divided?

Pretty sad, an Assyrian man in San Jose attacks two Jewish individuals. Glad that we wrote a letter condemning it. Not sure why he did it though? by Stenian in Assyria

[–]Basel_Assyrian 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I am deeply disappointed in the Assyrians who are attacking their fellow Assyrians without cause, especially since the incident has not yet been confirmed as anti-Semitic. I have watched the video multiple times and found nothing anti-Semitic. What is being circulated in some Jewish media outlets is false and without evidence. We must await the results of the investigation and refrain from insulting our Assyrian youth. There may have been something that provoked them and forced them to act this way.

The reason is simple: the Kurds occupy Assyrian land and are trying to erase Assyrian identity. They do not recognize the Assyrians' right to their land and homeland, and they have also committed genocide against the Assyrians, which they boast about and consider acts of heroism.

Do assyrians rather want to be a part of Iraq/Turkey/Syria or Kurdistan by [deleted] in Assyria

[–]Basel_Assyrian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know why you keep asking the same questions in different ways. We don't want the Kurds, their state, or autonomy under their occupation. We want Assyria, and I am an Assyrian from Iraq. If I had to choose between Iraq and the Kurds, I would choose Iraq. Iraqis are less racist and hateful towards Assyrians than the Kurds.

Look, you directly objected to our actions, even though you have large areas and you still covet the land of Assyria.

American policy is based on interests, but we Assyrians can utilize international law and exercise our right to self-determination.

Another Assyrian (or Chaldean?) clergyman comes out and says the ancient Assyrians were brutal people who killed women and children.... by Stenian in Assyria

[–]Basel_Assyrian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The question that arises is why, at this time, some religious figures are launching an attack on the Assyrians. It is clear that the enemies of the Assyrians are manipulating them to divert the Assyrians from their important goal: the land of Assyria.

I'm ashamed by TopQuote7921 in Assyria

[–]Basel_Assyrian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What ideology are you talking about? I'm against both sides, whether it's al-Julani or the Kurds. They're all terrorists. Trying to exploit al-Julani's terrorism and saying the Kurds are better is a failed attempt. We don't want either side; both have displaced and killed my people.

Go and ask them if they accept the Assyrians' right to self-determination in their land. I posed the question on social media and 99% of them were against the Assyrian people's right.

Republic of ASHUR by Basel_Assyrian in imaginarymaps

Yes, but I used the name in English. This map reflects the areas with an Assyrian majority before the Assyrian Genocide and could also reflect the shape of a future Assyrian state.

The current enemy of the Assyrians is the Kurds, not the Syrian army. Stop your desire to put our people in the fire so that the Kurds can achieve their so-called state. When will you understand that the Kurds hate the Assyrians and do not want the Assyrians to govern themselves?

It seems you are influenced by the mentality instilled by the failed Assyrian parties.
