In January 2008, seven simultaneous attacks were made again on churches and monasteries. Assyrian children and clergy beheaded and dismembered. Assyrians kidnapped for ransom and murdered. Young Assyrian boys crucified. Women and young girls raped. Assyrian men and boys tortured. Infants burned. Assyrians intimidated and threatened. Land and property confiscated. Business destroyed. Forced migration in a large-scale exodus from Iraq that at one point escalated to 2,000 Assyrians each day. Muslims carrying out threats of Convert or Die. Forced Islamization by way of Assyrian Christians ordered to pay a jeziya, a tax levied on Christians, a practice that is entrenched in ancient Islamic practice. Despite all the crimes against the Assyrians in Iraq, this small nation has continued to remain peaceful, patient and tolerant witnessing its own demise through a modern day ethnic cleansing with the full knowledge of the U.S. and the Coalition Forces making them silent accomplices to these crimes. Since we so concerned, how many mosques, hospitals, homes and Muslim lives have been taken since 2003? All the above things are bullshit and they are happening to all Iraqis not just Christians. as for the 'convert or die bullshit" that is another lie which is a joke. I have relatives there, my friends have relatives there and such a thing is unheard of. My cousin was just in Iraq visiting. I have even friends in Basrah and they are Christian. Why haven't they been killed or forced to convert? As if Iraqis are that desperate for the few racist Christians to convert TO Islam. I guess 1,400 years wasn't good enough to have erased the few Christians of Iraq. the truth is that all Iraqis are dying and suffering, not just Christians. If we go by religious populations, Muslims have lost most and are suffering most. You people supported the war because you wanted to see Muslims dead, and now you you taste your own medicine. It is because of such people that the few Christians in iraq are in danger. >Today's Assyrian Genocide in Iraq is reminiscent of the Assyrian Genocide of 1914-1918 in Ottoman Turkey and northwestern Iran where two-thirds of that nation were exterminated. Silent accomplices to those crimes were plentiful. There was never a genocide in 1914-1918 and there isn't one now against the Christians of Iraq Unless the Christians killed by American 'friendly fire" will qualify as "genocide" victims too? Learn the definition of genocide and stop making fools of yourselves because it does not apply to you people at all. >Since the liberation of Iraq, hundreds of thousands of Assyrians, who were once productive members of society in their homeland in Iraq, have become refugees, stranded and now abandoned in Syria, Lebanon and Jordan. They once owned businesses, homes, communities, schools, and churches. Now they live in absolute poverty, forsaken with no hope on the horizon as they face deportation from those respective countries. Same goes for Arabs and Muslims as well. Atlanta is filled with Iraqi Muslim refugees who had barber shops, restaurants, were doctors, engineers and lost everything. What is the difference between them and the rest? Is it because they are not Christian and therefore they do not have feelings, love and things they like? >Perhaps Congressman Donald Payne's June 30, 2006 comment on the record to me was more apropos when he stated, "The wheels of justice sometimes grind slowly." In the case of the Assyrians, the wheels of justice have stopped. I think an American Congressman is the least to be speaking about "justioe" because the they imposed sanctions in Iraq which murdered hundreds of thousands of Iraqis, mostly Muslims. Yet this Christian has the face to talk justice? >In June of 2007, a year after my Congressional Testimony, the U.S. Congress approved a $10 million aid through a Sub-Committee on State and Foreign Operations to assist the minorities in the Nineveh Plain in Northern Iraq, namely the Assyrian Christians. Compared to the destructions of lives brought upon the Assyrians in Iraq by the U.S. invasion, a $10 million aid is a band-aid solution to a much deeper, and far more serious problem. Good for you guys, go buy a cookie. That was Iraqi oil money and you are happy for that? >The Leave or Die message regularly delivered to the Assyrians of Iraq by the Muslims is a daily reminder of the instability the U.S. has created for that Christian nation. Unless an immediate plan is put into action to establish an Assyrian administered region in Iraq, with a police force drawn from Assyrian towns and villages in the Nineveh Plains, this ancient civilization will without a doubt disappear. Again that is a lie. More than 700, 000 Muslim Iraqis have dies since the war began as if they worried about few Christians converting to Islam. There are no such events going on. It is people like you guys that make it harder for Christians in Iraq, and including my own relatives. They have lived with Muslims all their lives and still do. Not one has been forced to convert or die. Iraqis are all suffering and Muslims have lost more and experience kidnapp too, so what is the difference? >The simple fact is that when the United States, a Christian country, attacked Iraq, it was seen as an attack on Islam. The Assyrian Christians of Iraq including all the various religious denominations have become a target of retribution against the western Christian invaders. The reluctance on the part of the U.S. to save the Christian minorities in Iraq may stem for the simple fact that the Muslim Iraqis will view this as the U.S. "helping one of its own." Could this be one of the reason the U.S. government chooses to not deal with this embarrassing disaster? Last I checked, this war was supported by these "Assyrian Nationals" so no need to complain now. You people are always ready to bend over for White people because you guys worship them. They brought this war, they are Christians and you people cheered them on in hopes to kill Muslims, yet now you people expect a cookie? If Iraq is a disaster for Christians, what is it for Muslims? >he Christians in Iraq did not start the war in Iraq. Today they are caught in the line of fire while the U.S. continues to evade the human tragedy of the genocide it is directly responsible for when President Bush first ordered the attack on Iraq. Neither did the Muslims start the war. It was American Christians who invaded another country while Iraqi Christians like Fred Aprim and others cheered them on. Taste your medicine. It is sad for the few good Christian Iraqis who loved their country that they are suffering but then again Muslims are suffering and even more. >The actions of the U.S. government are nothing less than irresponsible. Why should the Assyrians have to pay the price of this war with such heavy losses? These losses will never be recouped. Too late to realize now because they already invaded and the Christians from the west started this war and supported it. >As an American citizen and as an Assyrian, I am outraged at the callousness of my government in addressing the predicament it has placed my Assyrian nation in. If the intention of the U.S. is to continue to act as though it does not notice this problem, then before washing its hands completely of the chaos it has created in the Middle-East firstly it must train and arm the Assyrian Christians fully so that they can combat and cope with the daily attacks. Secondly, it is imperative that the U.S. and Iraqi governments immediately deal with the Assyrian issue in the same manner as they did in dealing with the Kurds back in 1991, by establishing an "Assyrian Safe-Zone." With the help of the United Nations, the prosperity of this region can slowly begin, and perhaps finally the Assyrians will be able to once again become a thriving nation on their own, much like the Kurds. Lool, with barely enough people to organize a soccer team, you will organize an army with mostly elders and women? Looks like we have a Rambo now. You sure as hell are not going to get what the Kurds have because the Kurds had an actual army, they fought, they have the balls and they didn't lie. So keep dreaming to be like Jews or Kurds, but since you are so into human rights and justice, why not first your Christian White government repay the Blacks in their own country, and maybe you and them can leave California and America in general because you are living on stolen property. You are living on non-White, and non-Christian lands. Leave America, Canada, Australia and other stolen lands if you are so concerned about justice. >Rosie Malek-Yonan is an Assyrian actor, director and author of The Crimson Field.

What a joke but I gotta thank the person who emailed me this crap and showing me how they still don't understand dictionaries even if they have degrees. Do words have any meaning to these people? --------------------- |
