I don't know what to say to you brother Pancho, I was just reading this book late last night and I was going to post a message about this but you did a greater job. What I find most interesting about this professor is that under each page there refernces etc from where the info came from. Now the nationalists make all kinds of absurd claims against him, but whether we like him or not, his book is not based on his own opinion but it's based on facts. As for myself, I personally don't think the man has any hidden agendas nor is his book based on his own hatred or prejdices. Anyone who calls himself "open minded" can read the book and compare it for example with Fred Aprim's book which was published by one of those knock off publishers who will even publish for the kkk. Just compare the two with an open mind and see the difference. One is writing out his own hatred, bigotry and views and the other is writing based on reality and his book is supported by historical facts. I guess the nationalists view people like Aprim and others as historians, but they either don't know what historians really are made of or they just speak the things they want to hear. In the case of Dr. Joseph, the man was brought up with the same beliefs as all other "Assyrians" and he decided to go against family tradition by getting educated and decided to write the book. I don't know him personally and I have only heard of him recently but I been reading his book and I must admit to myself that the man is sincere at what he is doing. He can be accused of whatever they want to accuse him of but that don't change the fact that his book is not based on his own opinion but it is as supported and based on facts. He had other professionals help him write the book and his book is of scholarly work. Such people are historians and being free of biases is what makes them historians and their works are reliable. They don't just pick up what their parents or priests in church taught them but they went to school, got educated and are open minded. Let's assume for a moment that Dr. Joseph is working for the Zionists or as they say for the Jews and other enemies. What do the zionists have to be affraid of the few Syriac speaking Christians who now like to call themselves Assyrians? They have reasons to fear China, Russia, or islamic ideaology but why fear these few people who are merely unimportant? What can these people possibly do for the Zionists to be affraid of? For example, with Islam it is differen't. We know that the Zionists see Islamic idealogy as threat because it doesent go hand in hand with their desires. That is why they pay billions of dollars a year to fund all the governments in the "Islamic world" so that an Islamic government doesent come to power and bring what is true "success" to Muslims. They also fear communism as well but it is not a big thread as Islam is to them. Now what reasons do they have to fear a few Syriac speaking Christians who are of no threat? It is obvious that the behavior that these nationalists display toward this well respected professor is based on pure prejudices and hatred. The man is clearly writing something that doesent go hand in hand with their desires and agendas and they are calling him all kinds of names. They may call him whatever they like but they are unable to even come back with one good comeback to refute just one of the subjects he adresses in his book. They only do so on their own web sites and forums where they can freeky take out of context, delete, ban and make an idiot look like a champion. That is why I like live debates or lectures where a person go and watch/listen for him/herself without having to fear anything. Or it should be a place like this forum where anyone is free to post and speak freely. I must admit that this is the best Assyrian forum that I have ever seen and the reason for that is that it is "free" to write anything. This is the first forum and only forum I have written on in the last 4 years and I mean this kind of forum which deals with politics, Assyrians etc. So, once again thanks to Pancho for doing a great job at this forum and for posting these parts from Dr.Joseph's book which I was planning on doing today but you did the job for me already. --------------------- |
