All of the history books I have read on the ancient assyrians or mesopotamia made no mention about these modern christians who claim direct descent. The authors usually speak as if there aren't any left or they refer to iraqis as descendants of the ancients. In this book I was reading, it had a picture of an arab peasant who was fishing in the river. It was an iraqi from the south with arab clothing and it was showing him fishing in the same river and using the same methods as his "babylonian ancestors" and that's all. No mention of any christians alone being the direct descendants of the ancient assyrians and babylonians. Assyrian of today is just a name of a church and not anything else. Assyrian and nestorian are basically synonymous, and has nothing to do with the ancients. Good try, though, but doesn't work.
