Complementing Western European colonial policies that date back to
the 16th century, the US intervention in Mesopotamia (falsely called
Iraq) against the tyrannical Pan-Arabist regime of Saddam Hussein
ended up as total disaster for the massively emigrating Aramaeans,
whose historicity in the area goes back to the last centuries of the
2nd millennium BCE.

The Aramaeans defended Nestorian Christianity (fallaciously considered
as heretic by the Constantinopolitan and the Roman patriarchs) against
the Sassanid Persian oppression and the Eastern Roman persecution.

Due to the fact that for more than 300 years the Eastern Aramaeans had
been persecuted by the then world´s two main power,s which succeeded
one another in these territories of today´s SE Turkey, Eastern Syria
and Northern Iraq, the acceptance of the Islam was easy at all levels,
religious, linguistic, economic and political.

Arabic is a close Semitic relative of the Aramaic; the taxes that
the Aramaeans had to pay to the Islamic Caliphate´s authorities were
lower than the heavy tributes leveraged by the Eastern Romans and the
Sassanid Persians; the Islamic Caliphate was an oasis for the Eastern
Aramaeans, and the Nestorians – rejecting the theory that Jesus was
God – were very close to basic concepts of Islam that presents wide
affinities with the Nestorian Christianity – which was a matter that
the Western Christian churches and Freemasonic academia did their
ingenious best to hide from the average Western people.

Thus, many Aramaeans became progressively Muslims, contributed to the
rise of the Islamic Enlightenment, Arts and Sciences, and gradually
forgot Aramaic; however, the Nestorian Aramaeans were still numerous
at the Ottoman times, representing more than a third of the local
Mesopotamian populations.

Targeted by the cruel colonial policies of France and England,
they have been decimated over the past centuries due to the
colonial practices of ´divide et impera´. For the evil plans of
the Freemasonic colonial elites of Europe, the Nestorian Aramaeans
have to disappear totally, and if this is not possible, to emigrate
from their homeland and get dispersed.

In forthcoming articles I will focus on aspects of the Anti-Christian,
Freemasonic policies of the colonial powers France and England,
but here I reproduce two recent features from IRIN and one report
from AFP that make state of the calamitous situation to which the US
paranoia in Iraq constrained the last remnants of a most illustrious –
and most envied by the French and the English – Nation – the History
of which has been monstrously falsified in the supposedly trustful
universities and academic centers of the West.

Iraq: Attacks Drive Thousands of Christians out of Mosul

d=80872

Baghdad, 12 October 2008 (IRIN) – Nearly 750 Christian families, about
3,750 individuals, have fled their homes in Mosul, a city about 400km
north of Baghdad, as Sunni Muslim extremists have increased attacks
against this religious minority since 4 October, a local official
said on 11 October.

"We have registered so far 744 Christian families who left their
houses in Mosul due to the recent attacks. Most have ended up either
in relatives´ houses or churches or monasteries in nearby towns
and villages where there are many Christians," said Jawdat Ismaiel,
provincial director of the Ministry of Displacement and Migration.

Ismaiel said these new internally displaced persons (IDPs) are
distributed in seven towns and villages to the north and east of Mosul,
the provincial capital of Ninevah province. He said there were about
200 families in Qaraqoush, 187 families in Tal Skouf, 145 families
in Bartila, 96 families in Baashiqa, 47 families in Karam Less,
37 families in Tilkaif and 32 families in Alqoush.

Ismaiel added that his teams are visiting all the towns and villages
that have offered safe haven to Christian families in order to track
their number, which is "increasing dramatically hour after hour".

Aid deliveries

He went on to say that 150 food and aid packages have been distributed
so far to these families and at least 50 more were expected to be
distributed later on 11 October. Each package includes four bed
rolls, four blankets, four pillows, hygiene and kitchen materials,
cans of food, lanterns, tomato paste, clothing for adults and children
and toothpaste.

In addition, Ismaiel said the displacement ministry is planning to
build a makeshift tent camp in Bartila if needed.

An accurate estimation of the Christian population in Iraq is not
available but hundreds of thousands of Christians are known to have
fled the country since the US-led invasion of the country in 2003
for fear of attacks by both Sunni and Shia religious extremists.

A local police officer in Mosul said that since 4 October police
had found seven dead Christians who appeared to have been kidnapped
by gunmen and killed execution-style. The latest was a construction
worker killed on 8 October.

The officer spoke on condition of anonymity as he was not authorised
to speak to media.

Following these recent attacks, Ni´ma Noail, a 50-year-old Christian
civil servant, decided to leave his house in Mosul and has ended up
in a room in a church in Bartila.

"We left everything behind us. We only took our souls," Noail,
a father-of-three, said. "Relatives in other cities and friends in
Mosul, including Muslims, advised me to leave after recent events."

He called on the government and US-led forces to "honour their word
to offer protection to Christians".

Iraq: More Food Aid Needed for Displaced Christians – official

rtID=80882

Baghdad, 13 October 2008 (IRIN) – Calls for more humanitarian aid have
been made as an increasing number of Christians flee their homes in and
around the northern city of Mosul due to attacks by Sunni extremists.

"As of today [October 12], the number of Christian families who
have fled their homes in Mosul has reached 1,094 [about 5,470
individuals]. They are still fleeing to nearby Christian towns and
villages fearing attack by gunmen," said Jawdat Ismaiel, provincial
director of the office of the Ministry of Displacement and Migration.

Ismaiel told IRIN he had appealed to the ministry, the Iraqi Red
Crescent Society (IRCS), and the International Organization for
Migration to help with more food and other aid for these families.

"The most needed items are food, blankets and bed rolls… We have
distributed 350 items so far and we will distribute at least 200 more
tomorrow," Ismaiel said.

Falah Hilal, head of the IRCS office in nearby Ninevah Province,
said his teams had supplied 525 families with aid in two towns.

"These families are going through hard times, with panic, sadness and
misery obvious in their faces," Falah Hilal told IRIN. "They have left
their properties and their children are out of school… displacement
is still under way."

Each aid package includes four bed rolls, four blankets, four pillows,
sanitary and cooking materials, canned food, a lantern, tomato paste,
and clothing for adults and children.

Investigation

Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki has ordered an investigation
"to adopt immediate and necessary measures to enable the Christian
families displaced over the past few days to go back home," a
government statement said.

Ali al-Dabagh, a spokesman for the Iraqi government, on 12 October
condemned "criminal groups trying to harm the coexistence and
forgiveness principles among Iraqis".

Al-Dabagh accused extremist groups of targeting "an essential segment
of Iraqis, Christians with whom we have a long history of brotherhood
and coexistence."

In Mosul, an Iraqi army officer who preferred anonymity said: "We will
protect Christians and their properties, and hunt down the terrorists
behind these criminal acts, so as to help those who have fled their
homes to return."

Whilst there is no accurate data on the size of the Christian
community, hundreds of thousands are believed to have fled the country
since the US-led 2003 invasion. There were around 800,000 Christians
in Iraq in 2003, according to Chaldean Archbishop Louis Sako.

A police officer in Mosul who preferred anonymity said that since
4 October police had found seven dead bodies of Christians who had
been kidnapped and apparently killed execution-style.

Iraq Pours in Police to Protect Christians

Vy7yWCvTc6j79CDdEJJoGDIXUQ

Mosul, Iraq (AFP) — Iraq deployed around 1,000 police in Christian
areas of Mosul on Sunday as thousands of members of the minority
group fled the worst violence against them in five years.

"Two (national police) brigades were sent to Christian areas in Mosul
and churches were surrounded and put under tight security," interior
ministry spokesman Abdul-Karim Khalaf told AFP.

He said the reinforcements had been deployed from midnight in the
restive northern city, considered by US and Iraqi commanders as the
last urban stronghold of Al-Qaeda in Iraq.

Khalaf added that two investigation teams, one security and the
other criminal, had also been deployed to probe a spate of attacks on
Christians in Mosul since September 28, in which at least 11 people
have been killed.

An AFP correspondent said police had set up checkpoints at churches
in the city’s four heavily Christian areas and were patrolling the
streets on foot.

Nearly 1,000 Christian families have fled their homes in the city
since Friday, taking shelter on the northern and eastern fringes of
Nineveh province, according to provincial governor Duraid Kashmula.

He said the violence was the worst against Christians in five years.

"(It) is the fiercest campaign against Christians since 2003,"
Kashmula told AFP on Saturday. "Among those killed over the past 11
days were a doctor, an engineer and a handicapped person."

At least three homes of Christians were blown up by unidentified
attackers on Saturday, security officials said.

Mosul military command spokesman Khalid Abdul-Satar said he did not
know who was behind the violence but pledged to protect the Christian
community.

"We told the Christians through their churches and priests that we
are ready to provide security to any house or individual that needs
our protection. We have enough forces to do that," Satar said.

At the Vatican, Pope Benedict XVI on Sunday condemned the violence
against Christians in both Iraq and India.

"I invite you to pray for peace and reconciliation as situations
cause concern and great suffering…. I think of violence against
Christians in Iraq and India," he said.

Yunadem Kanna, one of only two Christians in the national parliament,
said he had held urgent talks with Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki on
the violence.

"I just met with Maliki and he promised to deliver," he said, adding
that the army and not just police had to move into the area in force
if the law was to be upheld.

The flight of Christians from Mosul came as Chaldean Archbishop Louis
Sako last week called on the US military as well as Prime Minister
Maliki’s government to protect Christians and other minorities in
the face of a rash of deadly attacks.

In an interview with AFP, Sako called on US forces to do more to
protect Christians and other minorities.

"We are the target of a campaign of liquidation, a campaign of
violence. The objective is political," Sako said.

Since the US-led invasion of 2003 more than 200 Christians had
been killed and a string of churches attacked, with the violence
intensifying in recent weeks, particularly in the north, he added.

There were around 800,000 Christians in Iraq at the time of the US-led
invasion, a number that has since shrunk by around a third as the
faithful have fled the country, the archbishop said.

In March, the body of the Chaldean archbishop of Mosul, Paul Faraj
Rahho, 65, was found in a shallow grave in the city two weeks after
he was kidnapped as he returned home from celebrating mass.

Iraq’s Christian community includes various denominations, including
Syrian Orthodox and Catholic, Armenian Orthodox and Roman Catholic
congregations.

From:

The Holy Apostolic Catholic Assyrian Church of the East, current
presided over by Mar Dinkha IV is an Aramaean Christian church, and one
of the earliest churches to separate from mainstream Christianity. It
that traces its origins to the See of Seleucia – Ctesiphon, said
to be founded by Saint Thomas the Apostle as well as Saint Mari and
Addai as evidenced in the Doctrine of Addai. This church is sometimes
referred to as the "Nestorian Church", the "Syrian Church" or the
"Persian Church."

It has also been referred to, inaccurately, by a number of other
names. These include Assyrian Orthodox Church, which has led some
to mistakenly believe that it is a body of the Oriental Orthodox
community. The church itself does not use the word "Orthodox" in any of
its service books or in any of its official correspondence, nor does it
use any word which can be translated as "correct faith" or "correct
doctrine", the rough translation of the word Orthodox. In India,
it is known as the Chaldean Syrian Church. In the West it is often
known as the Nestorian Church although the Church itself considers the
term pejorative. The church declares that no other church has suffered
as many martyrdoms as the Assyrian Church of the East, which was the
traditional name of the Christian Church of the Eastern Aramaeans.
