Wouldn´t that present us with an interesting spectacle? The first thing that would be different is that none of the Christians calling themselves Assyrians today, would do so. They´d call themselves Christians plain and simple.
No way would they want to be identified with an Islamic country...dare we say it, an ARAB country...even one called Assyria.
We´d be spared the sight of letters going out from "Assyrians" who work at Ford and can´t make safe cars, proclaiming the "gratness of Assra" and their eagernes to kill any poor family anywhere in the world their "government" tells them to. We´d finally have these Christians out in the open...when Madeline Albright (there is an Ashur in heaven) said five thousand dead kids a month were okay...we´d see, " Albright says 5000 dead Assyrian Children A Month in Assyria Okay"...for a headline. That would be accurate at least, and honest...two things our Christians can´t abide now.
We´d be talking about killing Assyrians...starving Assyrians...about Assyrians being a threat to world wide security...about Assyrians sponsoring terrorism etc. You think the Whacki Rabi of Iraqi would admit THEN to being a proud Assyrian...you think Peter the Rabid would?
Think again.
