In Response To: Re: The Assyrian Progressive Nationalist Party -apnp (Joetango)

Dear Joetango:

Shlama ..ܫܠܡܐ

In reply to your question, I will say that I came up with such IDEOLOGY after a long experience in the Assyrian national Field, that as Assyrians or anything you name it, we are UNABLE to achieve anything in our homeland for the following:

> We are outnumbered by those who see themselves as Arabs , Q.....s, Turkomans .

> We don't possess that power to be able to have as some calling for an Assyrian enclave or whatever you call it.

> If we let these Iraqi people establish a Federal System, where IRAQ/MESOPOTAMIA will be turning to the CANTON system, where we will be the only losers, because those who are going to establish those CANTONS , IN A WAY or another are wiping out the MESOPOTAMIAN history which is the only hope for our NATIONAL survival.

This ideology, in a way will serve our Assyrian nation in the following:

> We are opening a door to the local people who most of them are proud with their history of 8000 years or so, and that history is dominated by our people.

> We are not discriminating against the Arabic speaking people that here we are all share such history of ours and we are coming closer than, to say you Arabs came from Arabia and go back where you don't belong to us, in fact they are here as we are .

> At least, you are approaching them with harmony, even if they refuse that at least DON'T hate us any more.

> And remember such movement IS POPULAR and SECULAR movement, the only way we could succeed in a society which is traditionally Islamic or inflamed by the west to be Islamic, and look on us as their agents and Christians infidels.

Finally, I am suggesting an idea which is a unique one so far in all our existing political parties when most of them try TO CONFINE our PEOPLE and ISOLATE THEM from the rest who are belong to us as much we belong to them, in any event, I KNOW IT IS VERY DIFFICULT these days and especially after what IRAQ went through, but we are trying and what we loose by that if we don't gain anything, WE ARE LOSERS ANY WAY.

Thank you again,

Ashur Beth-Shlimon
