I realize it seems like sacrilege to say there isn't any useful point served and a lot of damage done by continuing the idea of Christian Assyrians as a separate Race on earth who've suffered unjustly what no other people have and who must be given "back' what was so cruelly and unrighteously and illegally "stolen" from them...but this is utter nonsense. The only purpose served by this "front" is to give Christians some kind of stick with which to beat Islam with. It certainly isn't helping the people any. Where the people of Iraq, Christians among them, once supported themselves they've all been turned to welfare bums and cheats and stool pigeons...with our own Christians begging and pleading and rubbing their scabs some more to get pity out of Christians in America who'll go "Eat For Assyria" and send them the scraps. And I'm suspposed to keep my mouth shut or be accused of being a "traitor" by THESE people???

Nothing could be less welcome in Iraq right now than money or aid or "translators" closely linked to the American Occupying and Killing Forces over there. It's so damn obvious that only our patrots and hysterians wouldn't see it...or rather would seek to take advantage of it from the safety of a nice warm Christian hideout thousands of miles away to score points for Christ. What does it cost the Aid Society and Narsai to eat dinner one night a week and send the left-overs to Iraq to "save" Assyrians? Especially when the country they eat it in has sent millions and billins to hurt all the people there? Do they really think Iraqis are so stupid not to notice? It would be far more to the point to flood Congress with protest letters at the incalculable harm done to the region and the innocent people there by pursuing a "policy" intended to make multi-billionaires out of ordinary, impoverished billionaires.

But that's too risky a thing for Narsai to attempt at this stage in his career and it isn't going to make any friends for all those gastronomes...or metronomes or whatever high fallutin word they have for people who eat and drink too much and pay too much to do it. It isn't a "worthy" cause at all...it's a shameful one intended to get Narsai some quick and easy feel-good stuff because he really does agonize and cry and get depressed over what's happening over there. But not having made a habit of doing the right thing...even when he knows what that is...he leaped at the chance to do another wrong-headed but easy thing with little chance of being censured for it anywhere...anywhere and by anyone other than yoors trooli right here.

I know Jackie is going to love this as a sign and a warning to all Assrins that I'll "turn" on anybody...even someone who "did so much" for me...but that's the way they choose to see it whenever they expend some of the stuff that's really dear to their hearts...their cash and don't get ten times the benefit from it. I did as much for Narsai as he ever did for me...gave him as good a deal as I got and when I had the chance to go for the gold...to take on another and a far better patron than him, I didn't because I felt I owed us all. And everything I said about him, in his "defense"...wasn't defending him at all...wasn't because he was from my tribe or village or because I felt I owed him or wanted to continue benefitiing from knowing him. I said what I did because it was a simple truth. Francis Sarguis isn't fit to lick Narsai's shoes...as Ghassan isn't to do the same for Janey Golani. I don't have to love someone or hate them to tell what I see as a truth about them...at least from my point of view.

Narsai and Jackie and Dimrod and Golani are all grown boys and girls who can come onto any public forum or start one of their own to explain or defend their actions. They claim to be way too "busy" for such trivial things but that's not it. They're all afraid to open themselves up to scrutiny where they can't control the game and make the rules...or like Narsai, stomp out of a simple converstaion ten times in thirty minutes because he can't bully me in order to get his way. I'll go anywhere and face any of them...I've been written about and slapped about and threatened till I think it's fun...and I don't have half the problems these people do in explaining myself anywhere...and I'm pretty busy myself.

Ashur didn't put me here to kiss anyone's ass...an Assyrian's least of all.
