That is exactly true. It was never about fighting for a nation or for Assyria. It has been a religious thing since the very first time they adopted the name Assyrian. Now, whenever one mentions Assyrian, Christianity pops up immediately and this is very obvious. The more they run their mouths, the more rope they have, the more they hang themselves. It is a popular opinion that the name "Assyrians" was revived around ww1 and the nestorians adopted it. The modern Assyrian fanatics deny this claim and attack anyone who even questions them or brings the claim to their attention. If anyone brings up the popular opinion, that person is automatically labeled as "anti Assyrian" or working for the enemies. However, they forget that they are only proving the point when they disown someone for changing religions or even marry a member of another faith. Isin't this enough evidence to discredit the claim that the modern Christians of Iraq are purely 100% descendants of the ancient Assyrians?

This is very obvious and clear. There is no reason to deny this. They don't want admit that it is a Christian thing and they really want to start another crusade against Muslims. In order to cover up, they hide behind the label Assyrian to make it look as if it's about nationalism. I have been aware of this all along but didn't say anything. I remember before my reversion to Islam, I asked an Assyrian shamasha if Assyrians could be of another belief or religion, he immediately said "mustahil" meaning impossible in Arabic. I asked him why, he said Assyrians accepted Christianity 2000 years ago and every Assyrian is born Christian and baptized, therefore, it can't happen.

Now, I know it's snakes with such mentalities who have been manipulating the Assyrians all along by making them think that it is not possible. Using intimidation and writing their own history based on prejudices of the church. Of course they don't want Assyrians to renounce Christianity, who would want to lose his chair, power, money and empire. I am sure they love when the naive Assyrians kiss the priests hands and worship them as other gods along with the rest of their gods. The bottom line remains that if one has to belong to a particular faith, then Assyrian is nothing more than a Christian denomination. There are a total of 34,000 differen't Christian sects which do not see eye to eye, and Assyrian is just another one. In other words, they are idnicating that today's Assyrian is equivalent to saying Baptist, Mormon, Jehova Witness and the thousands of other cults, sects and denomination.

So after all, one does not have to be really Assyrian to grab the label, but you must be Christian, preverebly Nestorian, and must hate Muslims or anyone else who does not agree with them. One can be Arab, Persian, Armenian, or any race and still be Assyrian if one belongs to the church, but if one is Muslim, atheist, Ashurist, agnostic, Hindu, Satanist or any other religion, one can't be Assyrian. Either way, it's a religious community and not an actual race based on genetics.

I guess is time for me to revive an old label from one of the ancient Mesopotamian groups, but my label will be open to anyone of any religion. Let's see what happens lol.
