...gues why it's fascinating...while Dr Joseph's book is of no interest to her.

there has not been a single inscription found that links the kingdom of Arameans with the word Surai, Surayeh, Syria, Syrian. These words have always meant Assyria/Assyrians.

...this is palpably false as to not even merit a response...how easy it is to make your claims from inside assyria. The Greek histoiran Posidonious said as much...I put the quote here already...whenever you bring the evidence, they merely repeat, "there is no evidence....."

Whereas the modern country of Syria was always referred to by Egyptian, Hebrew and Assyrian inscriptions as the Kindgdom of Aram and its inhabitants as Arameans.

...not the Hebrews who translated the bible into Greek...they changed the name ASram to Syria and so on...in 1970 British scholars changed it back on a new edition of the bible...also the Armenian language, among others, has two distinct, though similar sounding words, for Syrian and Assyrian...Assori for Syrian and Asortestan'ci for Assyrian...also Herodotus makes a clear distinction between the tow and always calls them by their separate neames...what Magpie does is take the "facts" from Aprim...who got them fromm Jassim...who got them from Warda, who may as well pulled them from his arse for the good they do...except to serve assyria.

As Zach Cheery pointed out in his fabulous lecture, the word for Assyrians and their land was first Surayu, then it became Asurayu, then Ashurayu as the Akkadian dialect changed. Even during the second Iron Age, the word Suraya meant Assyrian.

...this so tiresome. What a kick in the ass if we finally produce our first Assyriologist and he turns out to be a christo-nationalist after all....we'll just have to wait and see if he graduates, first of all...and how he fares in his profession. There is ample evidence that Syrian was the name given to the Arameans...whose language the Assyrians adopted...I'm waiting for Cherry to prove that Aramaic is really a dialect of Akkadian...while Parpola proves that Jesus was really teaching Assyrian....in Aramaic.
