...these are comments or ideas so purely stupid as to only apply to assyrians, or come from them.

There was a nationalist some time back, Hanna Hajjar by name, who finally and in exasperation, thought to settle an issue by saying assyrians "have our own dictionary"...a statement so true and so stupid as to qualify as an assyrianism.

We were discussing such terms as "martyr" and "nation" and a few others...I was citing actual dictionary definitions to show Hajjar literally didn't know what he was talking about, when he blurted out what he didn't realize is the main operating system of assyrian nationalism....their own "dictionary", where words mean what you need them to mean.

Though Magggie has never tired of telling us she has an AA from a JC in sociology, I think, and though she appears to have read at least one more book than your average assyrian "intellectual" she favors us at times with a call for assyrians to hold "parliamentary elections" and choose a "government in exile"....again, not knowing what either means and how neither applies to her mental condition....another pure assyrianism.

...there are more.
