Who is Responsible for Misinforming our People

I am so angry because we seem amazingly to be unaware of what is happening around us even when we are living in the middle of it all. I cannot understand how is it that Assyrians in Iraq do not understand who is who in Iraq.

...you have a harder time understanding who isn't who in America...as in: you are NOT an "author" when you PRINT your own book. Any Hitler can do that.

I had a chance to speak with an educated old friend in Iraq last Sunday on the occasion of the Feast of Resurrection (Easter). He began to talk about the good deeds of Sargis Aghajan and Ishtar TV. He carried on and on implying that this man came as a savior for our people. I just could not believe my ears; I was furious.

...did you hang up? Did you cut his telephone line? Did you stay on the phone and try to educate YOURSELF? Just wondering. It seems that you and only you know "who is who" and what is what.

When I told him that this money is neither from Sargis Aghajan's nor Kurdish pockets and that it is Iraqi oil money for various reconstruction projects for Iraqi communities, he was surprised and even attempted to contradict me.

...The Kurds get this money from the same place they got Kurdistan...from Bush. Had Bush given Iraq's money to YOU...you wouldn't have found it odd at all. The Kurds are bought and paid for by the United States...while America is busy getting shot up in the south, the Kurds maintain calm and control the north...saving America an even bigger disaster. I'm sure you and the boys would LOVE to be where the Kurds are today...but Bush knew better...to have put you children in charge would simply have meant you would fought each OTHER over your churches and the north would have gone to hell as well.

I do not understand, what kind of information is being spread among our people in Iraq and who is responsible for the lack of information our people are receiving.

...did you care who "saved" you? Are the Iraqis supposed to care where the money comes from?

He then told me that for decades Assyrians were unable to travel to northern Iraq and visit their villages and that today Aghajan is rebuilding their villages and homes; the poor Assyrians are very happy! I told him so what if few hundreds or even thousand homes and many churches were built for Assyrians if these were in the middle of tomorrow's "Kurdstan". Yes, I understand that the hungry look at things differently than those whose stomachs are full.

...good of you to take notice. Under the Kurds Assyrians have had their own schools, using their own language...with this money there is a chance for jobs and full stomachs...i suppose to you, eating comfortably in California, the idea of Assyrians caring more that their children are well fed and cared for in Kurdistan, rather than starve nobly in Assria, is of paramount importance....well, there goes your next book.

Ishtar TV has been on the air few months and it already poisoned the minds of our people, even the educated.

...that's nothing. Look at the poison you've been spewing for years now. And you bring no benefits with your poison.

Meanwhile, our established and claimed Assyrian patriotic TV stations that brag proudly about how they were the first in everything have been busy attacking each other or busy praising their local kings and heroes for the last three years. Damn you and damn us all.

...and damn you too. When there was a time for thoughtful and probing debate you found it much easier to throw fits and demand that anyone oppsoing you be removed or else you'd hold your breathe till you turned red white and blue.

I told you back then...that if you couldn't have YOUR way...you'd far rather see the entire country damned. That healthy and alive and happy PEOPLE are of no interest to you...what you want to do is WIN the ridiculous argument that you MUST be Assyrian because you SAY you are...and it seems, also like I told you, no one gives a damn for your bloodline or hysteria...and like any bad boy, if YOU can't win at marbles, you'll kick the game over and get sand in everyone's eye...if YOU can't have your way, then NO ONE should prosper.

Fred
