++++Arabs are from Arabia...Assyrians are from Iraq...and a few other Muslim nations.
Why then, why, a million times why, does the government of Iraq insist that there be only one ETHICITY, not religion,not language, ETHNICITY - ie Arab - in Iraq? Yeah, they embrace other religions, but only under an "Arab" context. Only under enormous pressure from another ethnic group, the Kurds, was it then KIND OF ok to add Kurdish.
And don't tell me it's because the "Assyrians" are enemies of the State colluding with the divisive nasties in the West..
