Double Standards
When it comes to the Assyrian issue, the voice of the international
community tones down to a hush. They adopt the code of silence. The
international community maintains the conspiracy of muteness. Iran,
Turkey, Syria and Iraq have nearly destroyed the Assyrian nation with
their plunder and cruelty. The four domineering countries, under which
the Assyrians now live, consider the Assyrian territory Islamic
property, part and parcel of the states of the Islamic Abode of Peace.
The quartet acts as landlords, proprietors of the dismembered Nation of
Assyria. They claim free hold on the title deed of the Assyrian
homeland. They either inherited part of Assyria from past invasions, or
added it to theirs in the immediate aftermath of World War I.
In post World War I, and with the help of the West, the four Islamic
states of the Abode of Peace confiscated Urmia, Van, Khabur and Mosul
Provinces of the Assyrian region. They divided the whole of the Assyrian
territory and incorporated it into their four countries. After modifying
their political borderlines, the belligerents annexed the dismembered
parts of Assyria to theirs in full view of the world, and with the
consent of the West.
