Our brother Assyrian Muslim wrote:

" In my most recent conversation with this Assyrian Christian, I had this individual accusing me of being a sell out and my "Assyrian pride" was going to "die" soon just as all the Assyrians who became Muslims in the past. I asked him where was this "Assyrian pride" in the lat 2,000 years? Why were they able to build monuments as Christians and walk all the way to India to preach Nestorianism . "

REPLY >>>

This is the way HUMANE beings operate, a nation CAN'T achieve glorious history always, there is a passage in the BIBLE/ NEW TESTAMENT, which says, " Nations will rise and nations will fall but the KINGDOM of CHRIST will stay always ."

No question, when we became CHRISTIANS , we submitted to it even to a point preferred to die for it, and Christianity is not EARTHY ACHIEVEMENTS, but hoping that to be rewarded after death.

It is true we as Assyrians in the last 2000 years or more never did anything to be proud of, the same could be applied to the Arab Muslims who achieved a vast empire in a short time in history , but in the span of ( 1300 ) YEARS never did anything, they never produce another Khalid Ibn Al-Walid , the only pride they got to call the ATATURK /KAMAL MUSTAPHA of TURKEY a KHALID of the ARAB MUSLIMS ! like calling George Bush our king SARGON or TIGLATH !

It is crystal clear that the Arab Muslims also recorded the most devastated defeat and humiliation IN SPITE of their enormous in numbers when they faced ISRAEL in 1967 of less than three million people , do you remember that !

I remember a very funny story in the first years I was here that I have a Friend from JORDAN who told me that Mohammed Clay( a Boxer ) defeated his opponent , because he was a MUSLIM, and that was about few months after the six day war of 1967 , then I replied to him and said are you serious ? he said yes, then I said COULD YOU TELL ME WHY YOUR ISLAM didn't save you from less than three million Israeli ? He was silence and didn't say a word !
