> >Is this Professor still alive if you many know? Yes he is...near to 90 years old and still working. He's editing a book written by an Assyrian woman (he doesn't fight with people, if they insist they are assyrian he lets it go) about life in Iraq and especially the schools way back when. We have exchanged emails....I was surprised to find out I'd met him years ago at my grandmothers house and that he is married to a cousin....he even reminded me that we spoke about my then belief that we HAD to be Assyrians. I was so hot and heavy to make the Ashurbanipal monument... he tried to, gently, talk some sense into me but after a few attempts he let it go....think of my own embarrassment now....I'm the idiot who built an Assyrian monument and put MY name on it!!! But that's okay...I do honor the ancients and believe they got a raw deal from the Jews ,especially, who refer to them as savages etc., when they were anything but. Besides, I never said there is NO Assyrian carry-over from the ancients, just that it is ridiculous and racist and bigoted too and stupid to say that ONLY Christians have any of this genetic material in them. --------------------- |
