Hey Jeff,

I think all the points listed hinge on IDENTITY.

Unlocking this secret opens pandora's box for some as well as the holy grail for others.

Whatever the outcome we cannot continue the way we have been, stuck in Christian amber, manipulated and used as playthings by the world's superpowers.

With this view in mind we can finally answer the points listed long ago. We have finally reached a point of understanding that our ancestors haven;t reached since the fall of Nineveh.

IDENTITY - Loss of identity, hatred of Middle East etc.
Answer - We are ethnically the people of Mesopotamia known as Iraqis today. Although our people have become religiously estranged.

POLITICAL - Lack of rights, ill treatment, freedoms, "Arabization/Kurdization" etc.
Answer - We have no political rights because we have not committed ourselves politically yet. Due to our religously-based identity we show more loyalty to Western governments eager to exploit our country's resources then to our own people and nation.

RELIGIOUS - Our people in the Middle East although of the same ancestry are currently fractured across, different religions and sects within these same religions.
Answer - We need to respect everyone's religion and sects in the same way our ancient kings respected all our gods and dieties.

ECONOMIC & SOCIAL - Lack of opportunities, jobs, no future etc.
- Lack of discipline, family breakdown, drugs, peer-group pressure etc.
Answer - Without an understanding of who we are most of our youth either assimilate into the dominant Western country or become aimless as they are caught between two worlds and cultures.


P.S. Please excuse the delayed response.
