Well, its been quite a while that I've been posting-
I am only posting this to clear up two things:
one: Fred tried to bring up issues of Assyrians and why I post here if Im not Assyrian- and let me explain this:
He had welcomed many people, especially nonAssyrians, to this forum, and has emphasized in the past how non-Assyrians were to be given more credit than Asssyrians themselves for taking an interest in Assyrian affairs....Basically, he is presenting a different stance only to try to irritate me, which is not going to happen. In fact, this post is beneath me, but I figured Id at least clear that up....In case anyone believes him.
second: As for posting as a non-Assyrian, since I have been welcome to these forums for this long now, being non-Assyrian is no reason for me not to post here, and I would continue to do so even if Fred insisted I was not Assyrian and shouldnt post here, since I didnt post here because of anything related to Assyrians in the first place. It was an 'open' forum to discuss ideas and the reason I posted articles from other places in the world is to give a broader picture of the world, beyond Assyrians and Iraq, simply for general knowledge or for whoever wanted to read it. As for my having an interest in Assyrians, I have no more interest in Assyrians than I have an interest in Iranians, Greeks, Spaniards, Americans, or anybody else- everybody is on the same earth, and we all have to live with each other, and I do not divide people along segregation lines.

As for why I had posted those "eunuch to master" posts earlier, contrary to what some might think, I did not post them to illicit any response from Fred or anyone else.
I simply was annoyed over something someone had said on the forum, and so I posted those out of irritation as a sort of "venting." It had nothing to do with Fred, and I told him not to take it personally. He did so only because of his low self esteem, immature mentality, and rude nature.

Lastly, in consideration of the fact that Fred is attempting to act as if Im an outsider intruding on Assyrian affairs, I would point out that this seems to confirm my earlier opinion that this forum is more of a 'clique' than anything else, since it is based around mostly things concerning Fred's art and social issues- which is not necessarily negative, but it seems to exclude other people who might want to contribute information to the forum, since those who do so are usually disrupted by Fred's behavior enough to the point where they do not bother posting anymore. Some I would mention are Andreas, Sadie, and a number of others, including myself. Just imagine what good could come of a forum that facilitates information gathering and understanding of such information, where Andreas could inform us with news articles, Sadie could inform us of environmental concerns and health issues, and I could provide general news from around the world. A network of posts, filled with information. Instead, we have a forum where only the issues of one particular man seem to keep resurfacing, and stay on as the main objective of the forum. Other than the occasional wanderer into the forum, or the few regulars who belong to the 'clique,' there really is no "culture" to the forum, in all sincerity. It seems that this is the effect of Fred's "ethnic cleansing" in regard to the harrassment of other posters, similar to the type of harrassment that got him into the lawsuit he is involve with now.

And finally, in case anyone ever wondered why I posted such "silly" posts occasionally, Ill just say this:
If you have a tolerance level where you can accept someone's posts if they are silly and if you understand that since there is not much content on this forum to begin with- then maybe it is not so unusual to get the occasional "silly" post where someone posts out of boredom with respect to the forum. If anyone was ever offended, or took any of the posts seriously, then I apologize for the former, and as to the latter, I suggest you establish the ability to perceive when one is itentionally mocking himself in a post, such as when I pretended to be other posters and regarded myself as 'great.' That said,
adios.
