AN INTRODUCTION TO ZINDA = MAGAZINE'S NEW=20 SECTION:
REFLECTIONS ON ASSYRIA

This introduction will attempt = to describe=20 what can be expected to appear under this heading as a more or less = regular=20 feature.  The "reflections" in the title will consist of short = essays on=20 our condition as Assyrians in the world today and we are the "Assyria?." = Not the=20 ancient empire, not even any geographical location today, just = us...scattered as=20 we are throughout the world.  We are what is left of Assyria, we = are the=20 future of Assyria as well, wherever and however that may exist in the = time to=20 come Any topic will be fair game and every approach except sentiment and = pity=20 will be used.  People will be named, specific incidents explored = while=20 every effort will be made to be clear and fair.  However, by its = very=20 nature this column will offend some people. But, as there are several = facets of=20 our present condition which are highly offensive, this small venture = shouldn't=20 bring the world, as we know it, to an end.  The goal isn't to be = offensive=20 or confrontational.  It is, rather, to say what may need to be = said, what=20 some would rather not hear, but without which the survival of a = meaningful=20 Assyrian consciousness could be jeopardized even = further.=20

There will have to be a little = tearing=20 down, a bit of house-cleaning as we go along,  before a new = structure can=20 be built the old site has to be cleared of debris.  There is = another reason=20 besides clearing away old matter that this must be so.   It = seems an=20 undeniable fact of our modern existence that we are our own = enemies.  We=20 betray each other, withhold support and knee-cap our brethren faster and = more=20 effectively than anyone else can do to us.  Even before we can = venture out=20 into the world to make other enemies or friends, someone in our own = group tries=20 to undermine us.=20

The people who engage in this = sort of thing=20 aren't formidable adversaries, they do not present any serious obstacle. = . .not=20 if they are dealt with, that is.  But left unmolested they do their = damage=20 behind the scenes. Their betrayals come at crucial moments, when we are = facing=20 challenges to our very existence or engaged in some positive = direction...when we=20 would least expect it and from a source which most perplexes and wounds = us all=20 the more because it comes from our own.  It is then that quietly, = without=20 any finesse, even lacking great malicious intent, they trip us up.  = It will=20 be easy to deal with them, to reveal their methods, to make it harder = for them=20 to sneak around corners, and then they will disappear altogether.  = With a=20 little exposure and the heat which it brings, most of them will be gone, = for=20 they are not motivated by any deep passion or conviction...just a vague = fear of=20 being shut out or relegated to a less exalted role than they think they = deserve=20 or were able to fill because no one cared enough to challenge=20 them.=20

In any piece of writing the = question=20 arises; who is one writing for or to?  These essays, poor as they = are, are=20 for everyone.  But their intended target, the bull's-eye, is those=20 Assyrians who feel compelled to deny or ignore their heritage.  = Those who=20 can see well enough how to succeed at business, politics or a profession = but who=20 don't know what it is to be successfully Assyrian, or what that could = possibly=20 mean.  Certainly, there is a kind of definition out there, but the = target=20 group find it unattractive or inadequate.=20

Since the thoughts contained = and the point=20 of view will be mine, or expressed by me, some introduction may be = necessary. I=20 am 53 years old, born in Baghdad, Iraq.  Half my people escaped = there from=20 Urmia in 1915, the other half...those who survived, remained.  I've = been in=20 the United States since 1958.  Though I've attended a few = universities,=20 junior and regular colleges, the closest I ever came to a degree was in=20 Sociology.  In Seattle I worked with the Public Defender = organization to=20 see if lawyering held any interest.=20

I was licensed to, and did for = three years,=20 run a group home for delinquent youths and received a federal grant to = strand us=20 all on a deserted island for eight weeks. I attended art class for two = days at=20 U.C. Berkeley before moving to New York where I copied sculpture at the=20 Metropolitan Museum for four years while working at various art = foundries. =20 Since 1983 I've been intimately and rather uniquely involved in the = Assyrian=20 community nationwide with both individuals and organizations through = attempts to=20 create Assyrian public monuments.  In 1988 the Ashurbanipal = Monument was=20 installed in San Francisco and, to date, the Sumuramat is still seeking = a home,=20 though the city of Chicago would dearly love to have it.  Work is = also=20 underway on a monument of Hammurabi, my last I swear = it.=20

I am married, have five = children, and live=20 in California...for now.=20

ASSYRIAN SOCCER PLAYERS = KILLED IN CAR=20 ACCIDENT

(ZNDA:  Syria)  On = October 10, a=20 bus carrying 12 to 15 soccer players of the Assyrian Athletic Club of = Khabour in=20 Syria was involved in an accident which resulted in the death of six of = the team=20 mates.  Many others were critically injured.  The team was = traveling=20 from Tel-Tamir to Ras al-Din where a soccer match was to be held.  = The=20 injuries remain serious.  The oldest member of the team was in his = early=20 20's.=20

The driver of the van, a = Kurdish man from=20 the same area, attempted to cut in front of a large trailer truck, but = was=20 unable to avoid a head-on collision with another incoming vehicle.  = His van=20 was caught in between two large vehicles.  The severity of the = impact was=20 so large that the roof of the van carrying the Assyrian players is said = to have=20 been torn off.  The Assyrian coach, in his 20's, was also killed in = the=20 accident.  All victims were from Tal-Tamir except one who was = identified as=20 a resident of Tel-Tawil.  The brother of one victim lost both=20 legs.=20

At Zinda press time the = identities of the=20 victims and the injured was not received.  The funeral for the = victims was=20 held in the Church of the East in Qamishly and Tel Tamir.=20



ASSYRIAN TABLETS FOUND IN = EXCAVATIONS IN=20 DIYARBAKIR

(ZNAN: Diyarbakir)  = Fifteen tablets=20 written in Assyrian language and various other historical artifacts were = unearthed in the excavations carried out in Hasankeyf township of = southeastern=20 Batman province and Bismil township of southeastern Diyarbakir=20 province.=20

Many historical artifacts were = unearthed in=20 the excavations which were held in ten different spots in Hasankeyf and = Bismil.=20 Andreas Schachner, the head of the excavation team, said on Friday that=20 they
found = architectural=20 constructions built around 5000-4500 B.C. in Grecano Tumulus in Bismil = township.=20 Schachner noted that they found 15 tablets written in Assyrian language = in the=20 tumulus and that a German expert read one of these = tablets.=20

The tablet was about an = Assyrian merchant=20 lived in eight century B.C. and his commercial deals, Schachner stated. = They=20 think that all the tablets found in the tumulus were private archive of = a person=20 who lived those days, Schachner said, adding that but he thinks all the = tablets=20 were about different issues.=20

Schachner emphasized that they = hope they=20 can learn significant information about those days from these = tablets. =20 Schachner added that the excavations carried out in the region and the=20 excavations are very important since they aim at receiving information = which=20 will illuminate the history of the region.

MID-EAST CATHOLIC = PATRIARCHS MEET IN=20 LEBANON

Courtesy of Zenit Vatican News Agency=20

(ZNDA: Beirut)   The = Council of=20 Eastern Catholic Patriarchs began its 10th assembly this week amid = unrest in the=20 Mideast.  Patriar= ch Nerses=20 Bedros XIX, Patriarch of the Catholic Armenians, inaugurated the = assembly in=20 the convent of Notre Dame de Bzommar in Lebanon.=20

The participants from Lebanon = and Syria are=20 evaluating a decade of ecclesial and pastoral activities. A key topic is = the way=20 the guidelines and teachings, expressed by the patriarchs in pastoral = letters,=20 have affected the lives of the faithful.  The evaluations will be = made=20 according to three reference points: the testimony offered by the = faithful, the=20 ecumenical movement, and openness to the faithful of other=20 religions.=20

On Monday, the seven leaders of = the=20 Mid-East churches prayed together for the political situation in = Lebanon. They=20 expressed hope for the establishment of a representative government that = will=20 include "all political tendencies" and be able to bring about national = unity.=20 The assembly ends Friday.=20

A week prior to the Assembly, = the city of=20 Istanbul dedicated a street to Pope John XXIII, who once worked in the = Vatican=20 diplomatic service in Turkey. The gesture was in commemoration of the = recent=20 beatification of the "Good Pope," who worked in Turkey from 1935 to = 1944. The=20 Pontiff began to learn Turkish to "give example." The street is in the = Sisli=20 neighborhood. The Turkish Embassy in the Vatican has organized a series = of=20 meetings in Rome to honor the memory of the new blessed. =

SURF'S=20 UP!

=93I read your current issue with great = interest as=20 always. There is one story that I would like to comment on. It was very=20 interesting to find out that an Assyrian, Mr. Robert Miner was a = cofounder of=20 the Oracle Corp. It is always good news to hear about the success of our = fellow=20 Assyrians. However, in this case I am not terribly impressed not because = Mr.=20 Miner's achievement was not great, but because of his failure to = contribute to=20 the advancement of education among Assyrians. What a great gift it would = have=20 been to his memory, his family name, his people, and to the future of = Assyrians,=20 if the gift of $5 millions was given to a university for advanced = studies in all=20 fields for Assyrian students. It appears to me that when Mr. Miner = dropped his=20 Assyrian name and adopted a foreign name he also severed his ties with = his=20 heritage and the future of his nation. Nothing unusual about changing = names, it=20 happens all the time in this country; however, that does not mean that = you=20 should deny your national identify. The behavior of the late Mr. Miner = is not an=20 isolated case. There are so many successful Assyrians that do not = acknowledge=20 their national identity and distance themselves from Assyrians. Andre = Aghassi is=20 a prime example. Let us pray that in time, all these lost souls will = recognize=20 that there is nothing to be ashamed about being known as an Assyrian. A = people=20 with a great heritage, a force in the civilization of the world, a prime = factor=20 in the spread of Christianity, and above all good, descent and loving = people. I=20 am always grateful to the Creator for being kind enough to have created = me as an=20 Assyrian.=94=20

RED HAIR:  FROM = ANCIENT=20 BET-NAHRAIN TO BROADWAY'S ANNIE

From an article entitled:  "Scarlet = ladies' historic=20 roots: by Alex O'Connell, for the Times of London; October 11, = 2000=20

Ancient Egyptian, Assyrian, = Persian and=20 Byzantine women won male approval by dipping their wigs in henna. And as = part of=20 the dating game, Assyrian and Persian men would dye their beards red to=20 match. =

But by the time Shakespeare was = writing,=20 red hair was associated with liars and witches. The playwright describes = the=20 strawb-topped Rosalind in As You Like It as having hair of a dissembling = colour.=20

Red locks came into fashion = briefly while=20 Elizabeth I was on the throne =97 she had nearly 100 rouge wigs to = conceal her own=20 bald patches. But by the 1800s red hair was mostly associated with = harlots and=20 ladies of poor character.=20

It was the Pre-Raphaelite = artists,=20 including Rossetti and Burne-Jones, who brought back scarlet fever. They = established the redhead as the artist's preferred muse. Rossetti's = depiction of=20 his auburn-haired sister, Christina, as the Virgin Mary and his Beata = Beatrix=20 and Monna Vanna paintings created a vogue.=20

Redheads became the essence of=20 fin-de-si=E8cle beauty. This look replaced the Victorian painters' = fondness for=20 blondes and brunettes, and inspired Degas, Renoir, Toulouse-Lautrec and=20 Klimt. =

The mid-20th century's = best-loved redhaired=20 heroines include the part-time scarlet ladies Rita Hayworth, Lucille = Ball and=20 Ginger Rogers.=20

In the 1970s Johnny Rotten = turned Red Hair,=20 No Future into an anarchic punk slogan; then in the early Eighties it = became a=20 colour choice among pre-teens with the opening of Annie, the musical, = featuring=20 a ginger-haired orphan child.=20

Redheads have often been = branded outsiders=20 and have been psychological and physical punchbags for school bullies. = Redheads=20 smell of fish, is one of the kinder sayings.=20

Even the beautiful Australian = actress=20 Nicole Kidman has admitted that her ginger corkscrew curls made her = unpopular as=20 a child. Robin Cook, the Foreign Secretary, Chris Evans, the = broadcaster, and=20 Duchess of York regularly receive a media battering for their hair=20 colour.

REFLECTIONS ON=20 = ASSYRIA

SEEING=20 PURPLE

It would betray a fatal naivete = to say one=20 could be shocked, saddened or angered by news that representatives of = ZOWAA=20 removed a painting from the art show at the recent AANF convention in = Chicago by=20 a nineteen year old Assyrian artist named Rabel Shamuel, a native of = that=20 city.  They did this because he used the color purple in what was = deemed to=20 be a negative or unflattering manner.  Purple is apparently ZOWAA's = color,=20 though what that means exactly I can't say.  It was enough that the = use of=20 this color upset one or two officials, who were backed by Sargon Lewie, = former=20 president of the AANF.  Would it surprise anyone to learn that = these=20 tactics were picked up at Saddam=92s knee and that calling themselves = democratic=20 could just be a ruse.  If not, this is the risk they run by = engaging in=20 this sort of dismal behavior. We shouldn't be surprised by anything = Sargon=20 Lewie, John Nimrod, Lincoln Tamraz or any number of Assyrian leaders and = organizations do.  We should be concerned that the rest of us allow = this=20 kind of thing to happen again and again.  The people who engage in = this=20 type of shameful behavior have franchised what it means to be = Assyrian. =20 They determine what is good for Assyrians and what isn't...what they = should see=20 and what they can't. And it is these people who represent us to the = outside=20 world.  Would anyone trust the meanest product or gizmo to these=20 "salesmen", and do we hand over our six thousand year old heritage to=20 them.=20

How can ZOWAA and their local=20 representatives behave in such a fashion. Do they think this is = Afghanistan?=20 Would it be too much to ask our Assyrian organizations to behave in = accordance=20 with the basic tenets of the United States Constitution, whose flag they = all but=20 genuflect before?  Is the degradation of our heritage, the = suffering of our=20 people to be a meal ticket for them?  Are our children dying from = easily=20 preventable causes so that mavens of misery can have a good cry, or to = provide=20 humanitarian resume enhancement for our would-be civic=20 leaders?=20

People deserting a sinking = Middle East=20 flock to America in order to reap the benefits of a = polital/philosophica1 system=20 they apparently care little for, except for what they can take from = it.  It=20 is defense of free speech and a relative lack of censorship, with all = its flaws,=20 which helped shape this nation.  The mayor of New York recently = made a fool=20 of himself in a failed bid to remove a painting of the Virgin Mary = because the=20 artist used elephant dung. As much as one might dislike the example, the = incident proves how powerful this country's respect for free speech = is. =20 Can the use of the color purple, any use of it, really harm a heritage = as old as=20 ours and having suffered countless real dangers?  The color won't, = but the=20 wounded idealism of our young people can...and it is hurting us. ZOWAA, = aside=20 from what else it might do, gives local Assyrian men a chance to talk=20 tough.  Photos of Sargon Dadesho back home sporting a gun or young = men=20 astride a pick-up truck brandishing rifles so fires the imagination of = our men=20 as to tighten their pants and loosen their heads.  We had heroes = once, but=20 any nation as old as ours, having suffered untold calamities, lost its = best=20 years ago.  They were the ones who responded first in every crisis, = and=20 died first.  The rest ran or hid, cowering at home.  These men = survived, married and spawned children, and we are the descendants of = those who=20 ran.  Only our women have a glimmer of courage, perhaps because it = comes=20 with maturity and they were forced into it faster by having to reconcile = themselves to the injustice and bitterness of catering to brothers, = brothers who=20 became princes and heroes by default.=20

Assyrian men posture and strut, = striking a=20 pose of manliness with each one careful not to betray himself by = exposing the=20 other as a fraud. They share the lie and pretend to one another.  = They=20 don't expect to be taken seriously, just admired and petted by their = mothers,=20 sisters and wives. Is there any reason to believe that the current crop = of=20 Assyrian heroes and nationalists will not once again betray those back = home who=20 are hopelessly outnumbered and who will either be overwhelmed or run = away when=20 the real trouble starts?  How often in our past have we postured = and=20 thumped our hairy chests only to hightail it, leaving the weak and = helpless to=20 pay the bill?  Where will Sargon Dadesho and Sargon Lewie be if the = Kurds=20 or Saddam move against us?  They'll be here...safe.  When it's = over=20 they'll come to us with crocodile tears asking for a few measly bucks to = hand-deliver back home to their "poor needy brothers and=20 sisters".=20

Violence and the threat to use = force isn't=20 a posture and cannot be justified when so many other avenues haven't = even been=20 tried. When starry-eyed American boys raised on John Wayne movies went = to Cuba=20 to join the revolution they were told by Che Guevarra to go back = home.  If=20 they wanted to help the best way was to go to Washington D.C. to the = very seat=20 of power where the Cubans couldn't go.  He urged them to use the = refined=20 methods contained in this system of government if they really wanted to = be of=20 help. My argument isn't with these people for every nation, every ethnic = group=20 has their equivalent.  It is with the rest of us, myself included, = who know=20 better but do nothing.  Those who abandon this unique heritage = because=20 they're embarrassed by the excess foolishness of some, opting to keep = their=20 ancestry a secret.  Those who think they've served Mother Assyria = by=20 attending conventions, at reduced rates, losing sleep and being = inconvenienced=20 once a year.  The Halls of Power...government agencies, private = foundations=20 and the Media in all its forms are open for business.' That is where = intelligent=20 appeals could be made and are being made by any number of ethnic groups. = But not=20 by this crop of leaders and two-bit organizations, and they themselves = know it=20 well.  Their only hope for sustaining themselves in the heroic = posture they=20 adopt is to define Assyrian as what they are and the rest of us as some = sort of=20 traitors to the cause.  They keep the bar so low that even they can = step=20 over it.=20

We, our indifference, gave that = ZOWAA=20 representative permission to remove the young man's painting,  He = knew we=20 would stand aside and let him. We've told everyone, by not telling = anyone, that=20 we don't give a good damn what's done to our heritage or in its = name. =20 Rabel deserves an apology, but from whom?  He should, at the least, = be=20 invited back to show his painting. Among other beneficial results of = such a=20 course would be a valuable lesson in democracy and basic civics = (something not=20 only ZOWAA needs); that censorship is always=20 counterproductive.=20

In his article in Zinda = Magazine Rabel took=20 great pains to honor ZOWAA's goal and efforts and he should be commended = for=20 being so fair minded and generous. I have higher expectations of those = who=20 presume to speak in our name, and especially in this country.  I = would=20 remind them that the real, untapped resources here for them are our = hearts and=20 minds, not a few paltry dollars. If they really want to help our people = they can=20 begin by sending better representatives.  If these are the only = kinds of=20 people they attract then there is something terribly the matter.  = Guns,=20 foolishness, vain authority, male posturing will not do.   And = the=20 next time they profess to be concerned about our heritage and choose to = throw=20 their weight around, they should pick on someone else...make sure it = isn't an=20 Assyrian.=20

REFUGEE CAMP AT = BAKUBA
=20

Midsummer 1918 saw the arrival in the occupied = territory of=20 Mesopotamia of some 45,000 Armenians and Assyrians from Asia Minor, Lake = Van,=20 and Urmia. The majority of these refugees are Christians, who for many = years had=20 been fighting against the oppression to which they were subjected by the = Turkish=20 and Persian Governments. In the great war these small nationalities saw = an=20 opportunity of freeing themselves from the Turkish yoke, and did their = utmost to=20 aid Russia in her campaign on the Caucasus and on the Persian fronts. = Both=20 Assyrians and Armenians, especially the Turkish Armenians, suffered = cruel=20 hardships during the war, and time after time were in imminent danger of = total=20 extermination. The Russians would occupy a certain area, retreat = suddenly,=20 leaving their unfortunate allies to the mercy of the vindictive Turks, = who=20 looked on them as renegades, traitors, and, above all, Christians. Then = would=20 ensue a series of gruesome massacres, which would continue until such = time as=20 the Russian armies again advanced to reoccupy the evacuated territories. = The=20 Kurds, who all through the campaign had been intriguing with the Turks, = were on=20 all occasions employed by the latter on punitive expeditions against = these=20 unfortunate people.=20

Early in November, 1917, the Russians having decided = to=20 withdraw their forces from North Western Persia, the serious question = arose as=20 to what the Assyrian nation would do. It was eventually decided that = they would=20 remain and along with the Armenians in the North endeavour to hold the = Persian=20 frontier against the Turk. This decision aroused the wrath of the = Persian=20 Government, and led to many disturbances. But for Persian interference, = the=20 combined force of these two small nations would, undoubtedly have = succeeded in=20 holding the Turk back. As it was, they succeeded in inflicting a severe = blow=20 against a Turkish force at Ushnu in April, 1918, and proved themselves = the most=20 capable of all, the National Troops, which the Allied Governments = attempted to=20 form out of the various Caucasian and Persian frontier tribes, after the = outbreak of the Russian Revolution had necessitated the, evacuation of = all=20 Russian troops. Eventually, however, Turks, Kurds, and Persians proved = too much=20 for them to deal with single-handed and without adequate support in the = way of=20 arms and ammunition, and these Christians were finally forced to leave = their=20 homes the Urmia plains, and to start of on their long southerly journey = through=20 hostile country to seek shelter behind the British. A site on the right = beak of=20 the River Diala about three miles from Bakuba (35 miles N.N.E. of = Baghdad) was=20 chosen for the Concentration Camp, where these unfortunate people were = to=20 live.=20

There they lived under British control, and even = after the=20 Armistice, when the Turk was compelled to evacuate the territory = formerly=20 inhabited by them, were still unable to return. There is every reason to = believe=20 that it will take time to repatriate them, owing to the prolonged = hostility of=20 the Kurds, who naturally resent giving up areas which they have acquired = by=20 virtue of their doubtful allegiance to Turkey. Persia likewise presents = an=20 obstacle to the scheme of repatriation as far as the Van-Bitlus area is=20 concerned, but it has been found possible to repatriate some Armenian = refugees=20 north-westwards into Asia Minor. One of the most remarkable triumphs of=20 administration has been accomplished in regard to these people. During = an=20 amazingly short period, they have, thanks to British tact, assimilated = Western=20 ideas which, normally, it would have taken them centuries to acquire. It = is=20 interesting to note that the Administration of the refugees in the = Bakuba Camp=20 is now carried out by the refugees themselves, with a minimum of British = supervision. The refugee areas have been definitely grouped into=20 Mountaineer-Assyrian, Urmi-Assyrian, and Armenian. Labour, clerical = work,=20 education, and internal administration are entirely in the hands of the=20 refugees, whose chiefs are responsible to a British Administrator. The = refugees=20 are able to find any amount of employment as sub-ordinates in the = transport and=20 animal camps, in hospitals, and in the telephone exchange. All children = over the=20 age of 7 are made to attend school. The schools are entirely secular, = and=20 physical training is insisted upon. Three hundred acres of ground have = been put=20 under cultivation, and any refugee with a trade has the opportunity of=20 practising it; while others who have no trade, are afforded every = facility in=20 learning one. From the above it may be gathered that the main efforts = made in=20 the camp are directed towards enabling the refugees to look after = themselves=20 pending and after repatriation, so that when they are able to return to = their=20 own country they will form a greatly more civilized series of little=20 nationalities than they were while under Turkish rule.=20
