: Shmee, the British Museum preserving Assyrian relics is about as relevant as the Sunni Arabs doing it in Iraq.... in their view, ancient Assyrian relics have no relevance to anyone living on Earth today. It's like "Oh how quaint these relics are... too bad these suckers don't exist anymore
+++And whose fault is that? You're now going to blame the Brits because we're too busy blending in everywhere we go?
..." Noone dreams that they are part of a chain with the ancient Assyrians... except for some modern Assyrians and even less 'Aramaens' etc ...far less so the AAA-rabs!! When you read Saddam's son's 'scholarly journal' Babel, in the forward is written "oh heil great Lord Saddam, this journal is dedicated to our great Arab culture descended from the Babylonian culture'... or some such drivel.
+++Read a book Bush writes some day...read what newspapers are printing. Again you compare our best with someone else's worst.
++++The culture of Iraq is indeed descended from Babylonian, Assyrian and Abbasid...which is simply Assyrian, Babylonian and Muslim/Arabian.
+++How much sillier is that than saying you are Assyrians because you descended from an Israeli? I mean really!
