Unprecedented Forgery of Ancient Mesopotamian History Expected to Trigger Chaos

September 25, 2008
Under the auspices of the Apostate Freemasonic Lodge which controls the colonial establishments of France and England, a ´holy alliance´ has been forged between the terrorist "Kurdish" organization PKK (practically speaking a construction of the French secret services) and the ´Assyrianist´ organizations of the Aramaeans. This further endangers the survival of the Aramaean Nation, either the nationally integral and conscious Aramaeans or the disoriented and bamboozled ´Assyrianists´.
In this article, we will continue the re-publication of the insightful research which was first published in the Aramaean website www.aranmahrin.org. More particularly, we republish translated (by the Aram Nahrin team - from Turkish) excerpts from the Kurdish newspaper Berxwedan that relate to discussions (lit. proceedings of a meeting held on 22.4.1993) between the "chairman" APO of the terrorist organization PKK and the board of Assyrian Democratic Organization.
The brusque falsification of the Ancient and Christian History of Mesopotamia became apparently the foundation on which the two terrorist organizations intentionally base their effort for another Hell in the multi-divided region. We will complete the present series in a forthcoming article. And in further articles, we will refute the forgeries and demonstrate on what evil purpose they have composed them.

A.D.O (continued): None of these powers have so far recognized us as a nation with culture and civilization. This problem is so far even not haven made discussable. All these matters together caused that our people is being considered as a sort of black (undesired) table. And this also is the cause for their Diaspora. The previously discussed issue of Diaspora does not mean that we want to learn something about Diaspora, but that our people return to their motherland that is what we want to say. It is difficult to explain this to our people. To explain the matter more accurately in this regard, it is necessary also to give account of the in history known Arameans.
Chairman APO: Of course, I wish also to hear about that.
A.D.O: The Arameans are also a part of the Assyrians.
Chairman APO: In which era did they live?
A.D.O: In the history they appear in the year 1500 BC. They were living in the area of Assyrians, that is to say, the two rivers (Tigris, Euphrates). Even if the Arameans are considered as a separate people, they thoroughly were connected with the Assyrians as regards their culture and civilizations and after that they vanished anyway.
Chairman APO: Okay, what is their origin?
A.D.O: We can say that they are the descendants of the Assyrians of Mesopotamia. For sure, they are no Arabs. The meaning of the word "Oromoye" (Aram) in Syriac is "Big", "High". At the same time "Aram" is also a name. For this reason they apply this name to themselves.
Chairman APO: One of our neighboring village also has a name Aram. In that case this word must also have been originating from Syriac. In other words, you say that the Aramean are not Arabs.
A.D.O: Absolutely, they are no Arabs. Their language is also called Aramaic. Also our language which we now speak is actually Aramaic, yet in our days it is called Syriac. We can put it like this: in literature Aramaic is also being called Syriac. In the church still Aramaic is used.
Chairman APO: I thought that many Arameans lived in Urfa, for there still traces of civilization can be found.
Page 18, Column 2
A.D.O: Yes. They lived in the area of Hakkaria to Urfa. In particular they were concentrated in the environs of Midyat. The Syrians have made this land known as "Aram", that is to say "High", they accepted it as a holy country. In this sense, it also becomes clear the holiness of the name Aram. Even in the year 700 BC the Assyrian king Senherib officially adapted the Aramaic language as the language of the region.
Chairman APO: Is Aramaic much close to Assyrian?
A.D.O: It is the same; it is only a dialect of it.
Chairman APO: Do you understand the survived texts also today?
A.D.O: In the beginning they used the cuneiform (script)
Aramaic is a modern form of Assyriac.
Chairman APO: What I want to say is whether you do understand the Aramaic words?
A.D.O: Yes, the current language we speak is Aramaic. At the times of Alexander the Great they called Assyriac "Syriac" language, Aramaic was officially recognized. Hereafter the Syrian people started to implement this concept in the area. The Aramaic language has two dialects: East- Aramean and West- Aramean. In the year 452 AD, at the times of Byzantines, a meeting was held in Macedonia in the church most allied to the Byzantine church. In these times the Syrians got divided into three groups and also in these times the Nestorians emanated. The Syrian Orthodox also became known as Jacobites. The Syrians who followed the Byzantine emperor were called Melkites. The meaning of Meliki (Melko) in Syriac is "principality" or "sultan".
Chairman APO: That is to say that the word Melik originates from there?
A.D.O: Yes. Since the times of Ural, the followers were called so.
Chairman APO: Whom of them is the collaborator?
A.D.O: The Catholics, that is to say those who followed Byzantines are the collaborators. The Orthodox did make concessions, until today they are Syrians.
Chairman APO: The Syrian Orthodox still being radical…
A.D.O: Yes.
Page 18, Column 3
Chairman APO: That is to say, who are the collaborators?
A.D.O: The Rum Orthodox who live in Damascus, Aleppo, Lebanon, Hama and Laodicea. These are the followers of the Melkites. However a part of them again is Catholic. After this the Catholics also got divided into two groups. At this moment a part of them is Rum Orthodox and the other part is Rum Catholic. This division came into being in the year 1500. Both groups have completely forgotten the Aramaic language, totally lost awareness of their ethnic origin. The Melkites believe in the 6th century St. Maron. The Maronites in Lebanon are their followers, that is to say the Maronite Syrians. Their churches still bear the name Syrian- Maronite. However as regards their ethnic traditions they are drawn apart from the Syrians. On the other hand a part of the Assyrians accepted in the 14th – 15th century the pope of Rome. A part of the Nestorians becomes Catholic. The pope gives them a new name. The Chaldeans of Babylon.
This situation caused the people again being divided into two (groups). The separated Catholics do not consider themselves as Assyrians, it is sufficient if we "call ourselves Catholics", they say. Their consciousness of their ethnical origin is completely being put aside. In short, the truth about our people, culture and history can be explained in this way. I am hopeful and I again repeat: Hereafter we have to help extra the country to progress, to improve the real status, this on the fundament of liberation to blow a new life in it.
Chairman APO: The Assyrians do not descend from Arabs, do they?
A.D.O: The Assyrians are older than Arabs. The Arabs originate from southern Mesopotamia. Those who gave the name "Arabic" to the Arabs were also Assyrians. They called them "Arboye" and the meaning of this is "southerners". Another meaning of the word "Arabic" in Assyriac is "Sahra". In this regards the Arabs are called "Sahra People", "desert people".
Chairman APO: That is to say, this words originates from Assyriac?
Page 18, Column 4
A.D.O: Yes, absolutely. This has two meanings in our language, one is called "the Southern" and the other one "desert" Arabs and even the Arabs living in Sahara are still called "Araboye" (Arabs), that is to say "the people of the desert".
Chairman APO: The Babylonians, Akkadians, Sumerians are absolutely not Arabs, right?
A.D.O: No……
Chairman APO: But the Arabs appropriate all of them to themselves. They claim that such a history exists.
A.D.O: They are absolutely no Arabs.
Chairman APO: Is there language different than Arabic?
A.D.O: Yes. Many of their books are written in Syriac.
Chairman APO: They all differ from Arabic?
A.D.O: Yes, that is so.
Chairman APO: There is cuneiform, there is Aramaic; these are not Arabic, and in those times Arabic did not exist in written form, right?
A.D.O: Yes. In reality Arabic originates from Syriac language.
Chairman APO: Is that so? Arabic originates from Syriac. Okay, is that definite?
A.D.O: Definitely. The origin of their script is in particular derived from that. On the other hand the words of these two languages have many similarities, yet in reality Arabic is being derived from. The Arabs have derived some of their characters from Syriac.
Chairman APO: Is that so? It is miraculous. In that case the Bible is to a great extent also written in Syriac, right?
A.D.O: Of course, it sounds like that.
Chairman APO: In that case we eventually can say that a great part of the Bible originate from Assyrian sources?
A.D.O: Yes, it is from Assyrian sources. Even Jesus Christ is originally an Assyrian. In these countries, also Assyrians lived then. Firstly, in those times there were also Assyrians who waged wars. Also the old testament mentions this, the war between Assyrians and Jews was fierce.

After the advent of Islam a major part of the Syrians was forced to Islam. Along with the Islamisation they also got Arabised. The Arabised Syrians were considered as those who made a considerable contribution to the Arabic civilization. The typical indigenous Syrian working fields were Arts and various other fields.
Chairman APO: Understood. The Arabs have received their knowledge to a great extent from Syrians. Okay, where do this people live?
A.D.O: In Homs, Damascus, Aleppo, Baghdad, Mosul and in Lebanon.
Chairman APO: In other words, we understand that the Arabic civilization clearly for an important part originates from the Assyrian (Syrian) civilization. One may wonder, how did this influence take place in such a great extent? I want to say that there exists a great Arabisation.
A.D.O: Yes, that is true. The rich Syrian class accepted for a important part the Islam to protect they money they had.
Chairman APO: It is exactly the same happened with us, right? Likewise it happened with the many arabised, Islamized (Kurdish) Sheiks and Aga´s, in the same way it did happen with the Syrians. There are also Islamized Syrians, right?
A.D.O: There are. By thousands, even by hundred thousands. The situation of Syrians in Iraq and Syria is comparable to that of the Copts in Egypt. When the power of Egypt increased, many Copts became Muslims.
Chairman APO: The situation of Syrians reassembles also to theirs. They are not Arabs, but are being arabised. This situation also exists in Algeria, right?
A.D.O: That is true, this situation also exists in Algeria. Only the culture, the customs, the language of Syrians differs from that of Arabs.
Chairman APO: In this case, it is the closest nation living among the Kurds. When the Assyrians extended their civilizations in the steppes, the Kurds remained (underdeveloped) behind in the mountains. The Assyrian questions should be considered as serious matter within Kurdistan. As far as I understood, the situation of the people represented by the Assyrian Democratic Organization resembles little bit with our situation. We also rebelled against groups, denominations, tribes and (harmful) effects of the faith can be evaluated as follows: The truth about nationality was annihilated.
The damage caused to the Syrian people by the fake clergy is very severe. Perhaps did the Orthodox faith gain more ground, however this should be met with constructive critics. It is not correct to completely deny the faith. "Faith is culture, is a kind of way of life", I participate in the meetings, yet I cannot say with certainty that they are faithful, that is to say, we should also not forget those who cause damage by taking the fait out of its context and misusing it. It is necessary to establish within every denomination a democratic movement. That is to say that it is important that their acts should be founded on a modern foundation.

It is also good to prevent Diaspora. That resembles also to our situation. It is necessary to pay more attention to this, to extra underscore. However, this is not only a physical Diaspora, it is also important to revoke as regards the spiritual well-being. That is to say, it is necessary to improve this. In this matter it is well to be more open-minded. To my opinion it is also necessary to pay attention to the issue of denomination. Some of them have interests, they are the leaders of Diaspora, and again they are the leading figures of faith.
A proper critic towards this kind of people is correct. We can say that this people are collaborators. I believe that also within your people in the past treachery was huge. Such as the collaboration with the Byzantines and Romans. Those whom we are talking about who care only about themselves, their home, their money and hearth, resemble to fake Muslims.
All these issues were harmful to the people. Limited kind of nationalism is also wrong. I consider limited form of nationalism little bit dangerous. Because there are some who withdraw from the reality of the region, form the reality of the people. Doubtlessly, the role of killings and attacks is obvious. However, in spit of all these matters, we should not give up and hide. For example, in spite we are being persecuted in Turkey, oppressed, we gave a very detailed explanation, informed the Turkish people. There are with us also many Turks. That is to say, the promotion of political explanation, the political revelation.
This also has a cultural foundation and for this as strong basis required. The Kurdish issue in particular needs such an explanation (from your side). I believe that the explanation of Armenians in the south and of the Assyrians in the north would change (positively) our fate in the history. Anyhow, the history became in a era of great darkness by the break of the ties. If we repair again these ties, than also again light will shine in the history.
It is necessary to build up this tie. It is clear that the Syrian contribution (to the PKK), to the new building up ( of the region) in the liberation of the people may play a pronounced role. It is necessary to consider Kurdistan as a common country. Sometimes I say, Kurdistan is Armenia, is Assyria.
From time to time I repeat these words. Because this is a common country. On places where fife- ten Syrian villages can be found, in the environs there are also equally Kurdish villages. Such as in Heseke, in Cezire the Syrians and Kurds live among each other. This is also the case in the Iraqi part, they completely live
among each other.
In Hakkaria many live among each other. In this matter, it is wrong to say that we are dealing with two countries. In the same area two people live among each other, this is the correct approach. We are considering (within ourselves) that the way you becomes a democratic movement, it is necessary that the Kurds also in that same way become democratic. That is to say, it is not only from within, but also necessary from outside to extend.
Of course we have to remember that the rapprochement according to the old religions, the limited form of nationalism did not provide extra opportunity to this. However, our ideologies and politics are in the end transparent. In particular the Assyrian Democratic Organization prepares on this a strong reliable foundation. Also the establishment of PKK movement took place in a such atmosphere; yet I can put it in this way that it has become a very remarkable and huge movement.
