The recognition and acceptance of a genocide, and mass murder of nations is not to merely point a finger at a tyrant guilty of those crimes. It is acceptance of facts and truths with the ultimate goal to mend bridges between the races. It is not to merely condemn but to create the first step towards world peace.

I am an Assyrian. That is not negotiable.

The Crimson Field (2005)

Anytime the western countries go to war in the Middle East, it becomes a religious war.

Iraq's 'liberation' has become the 'oppression' of Assyrians.

The Plight of Religious Minorities (2005)

When we perpetually allow the practice of genocide and holocaust and consent to the denial of such actions to linger for decades as in the case of the Assyrian, Armenian and Pontic Greek Genocides, we are in essence consenting to denial as a compromise. Denial is not compromise.

I may not have a country with boundaries, but my country is in me. My country is in my soul and in my heart. I am Assyria.

The Crimson Field (2005)
