>>>This is "Cover Your Ass 101". Never mind attacks against Assyrians and their "country" for last several years, the thousands starved burned and killed...never mind all of that...just rush out now and show solidarity with the people who've been doing it.
This strikes me as such a cynnical approach, an ass kissing venture of monumental proportions. Of course we grieve for the innocent victims in the United States...who wouldn't? I just can't fathom for the life of me why we don't show any concern for our own victims.
And I appreciate the touch about being careful not to call down retaliation because thousands of Assyrians live in the Middle East...No Shit!! Did they just move there in the last two days?
