A Forgotten People?
 

 

World Council and international organizations are reluctant to resurrect the Assyrian case - the case of the forgotten people. The situation continues to deteriorate since the Assyrians have no one to turn to, and no one seems to want to acquaint himself with their plight. They do not want to understand or concern themselves with the Assyrian issue. To them the Assyrian case seems to have been classified as low priority. In their view, there are other more important issues to tackle first. Like Palestine, Cyprus, East Timor, Lebanon, Afghanistan, Rwanda and Bosnia and scores of other conflicts, which if spanned with the time of the Assyrian issue, are all considered new and have just recently emerged.

By the time one conflict is resolved, like South Africa for instance, two or three other new conflicts emerge. They crop up and surface like poisonous mushrooms. They contaminate the world with their wanton action of violence, destroying property and shedding innocent blood. While the world is in turmoil, the Assyrian case is buried under a pile of unresolved problems of the world. Sitting there at the bottom of the tray, or shelved somewhere in the archives gathering dust. Since the days of the defunct League of Nations, the Assyrian dossier is forgotten under an ever-increasing number of new cases. Most of the pending files are marked ‘high priority’, except that of the Assyrian, with little chance of the Assyrian legal documents ever being located and the Assyrian issue raised, offered for discussion and given a fair hearing. The apathy of the UN to the Assyrian question is a reflection of its incompetence and kowtow to the Arab Islamic influence and duplicity of Western powers.
