Sabrina, your grant father, Doctor Wilson Bet Mansour was an Assyrian parliamentarian in the Iranian parliament. He also was an Editor-in-chief for the Assyrian monthly newspaper, "ATOUR". The eminent, Doctor Bet-Mansour, used to mail his prominent newspaper to me while I lived in Lebanon. Your grand father Doctor Wilson Bet-Mansour was an Assyrian nationalist, and for us all, he still remains as an Assyrian legend and he will forever live in our hearts. I hope your voice echoes the four corners of the Earth. Let the World know.

All Assyrians are very proud of you, Bassma Ganakh

According to western Assyrians, I’m not Assyrian. I’m not white enough.

Aw, my name is Sabrina and I feel exactly the same! My mom is French Canadian and my dad is Assyrian! His side of the family all speak Assyrian and have so much pride, although I’ve never learned it. The amounttttt of times people reply “youre a Syrian?” and I go “no, assyrian!” Nobody ever knows who they are 🥹

Thank you for being Assyrian not only in mouth but in heart too. When it comes to identity, our heritage is part of our identity. I suggest since non of you born in America you should say you are Assyrian-French.

Basma ghanakh!! Khayad! Such an inspiration to all Assyrian youth!

Absolutely amazing what you've done. You're parents are probably super proud of you for educating the world of who are Assyrians and what have they achieved in the world.

Nothing is greater than knowing your identity specially when it is Assyrian ❤ May God bless our beloved nation and united us all together 🤲🤲🤲❤️❤️❤️

Such a great and interesting presentation. Both Doctors, Wilson and Nora Bet-Mansour would be so proud of you.

What an eye-opening presentation! I grew up in Australia finding it very hard to identify with my Assyrian culture. Always believing it to be "too old" or disconnected from the western world. Now as I'm older, I'm learning to appreciate this rare heritage and history that we have and hoping to learn more about what makes our culture so special!

The Assyrian (Chaldean, Syriacs) Nation needs to unite again and work for out own Region in our ancestral Land where we can speak and teach our Aramaic language, so Our children will learn it and preserve it. Tihe Othur Tihe Suryoye God Protect Assyrian and Assyria will RISE If we do IT! ܬܝܚܐ ܣܘܪܝܝܐ ܬܝܚܐ ܐܬܘܪ

So proud of you Subrina. The Assyrian queen Sabrina spoke about our Assyrusn history on TED TALK. You made your grand parents & us proud. My mother survived the Simele massacre of 1933 in Iraq, walking at night, hiding at during the day to Russia. She lived there with her uncles for 7 years and went later back home. She helped us leave Assyria, the occupied land by the Bath party and later by ISIS and corrupted government . For years we dreamed about going back , unfortunately the politic didn't allow that. Now my siblings live in Sweden & I live in US . We were not allowed to learn our language at the church being accused having secret meetings after university hours in Baghdad. I can only speak my language & can't read or write it. The forgotten nation like many others out there by the united nation. There is hope where are young people like yourself.

Assyria, kingdom of northern Mesopotamia that became the centre of one of the great empires of the ancient Middle East. It was located in what is now northern Iraq and southeastern Turkey. A brief treatment of Assyria follows. For full treatment, see Mesopotamia, history of: The Rise of Assyria. Assyria was a dependency of Babylonia and later of the Mitanni kingdom during most of the 2nd millennium BCE. It emerged as an independent state in the 14th century BCE, and in the subsequent period it became a major power in Mesopotamia, Armenia, and sometimes in northern Syria. Assyrian power declined after the death of Tukulti-Ninurta I (c. 1208 BCE). It was restored briefly in the 11th century BCE by Tiglath-pileser I, but during the following period both Assyria and its rivals were preoccupied with the incursions of the seminomadic Aramaeans. The Assyrian kings began a new period of expansion in the 9th century BCE, and from the mid-8th to the late 7th century BCE, a series of strong Assyrian kings-among them Tiglath-pileser III, Sargon II, Sennacherib, and Esarhaddon-united most of the Middle East, from Egypt to the Persian Gulf, under Assyrian rule. The last great Assyrian ruler was Ashurbanipal, but his last years and the period following his death, in 627 BCE, are obscure. The state was finally destroyed by a Chaldean-Median coalition in 612-609 BCE. Famous for their cruelty and fighting prowess, the Assyrians were also monumental builders, as shown by archaeological sites at Nineveh, Ashur, and Nimrūd.

Yazidis are Kurds. Yazidi is ancient kurdish Religion

Semiramis was a historical Assyrian queen of Babylonian birth, who lived and reigned around 800 B.C.E. By the 18th century the legends associated with her life had eclipsed her actual accomplishments as queen, notably due to the popularity of Voltaire's eponymous play, written in 1748. His version of her life centered on palace intrigue, notably the beautiful queen's affair with Assur, and her plot to have him poison her husband, the king. As he dies, the king implores a trusted friend to take his son, Ninias, away from the palace to save his life. Although Semiramis ruled Babylon well for fifteen years, during that time she was stricken with guilt over the murder of her husband and the loss of her son. Her lover Assur, however, plots Semiramis' death after she refuses to marry him and install him as king. To foil his plans, she arranges to marry a young warrior, who is in fact her son, whom she mistakenly believes to be dead. Ninias is warned away from this incestuous marriage by his father's ghost, who then demands that his son avenge his murder. Led by the ghost, Ninias stabs and kills a form he believes is Assur, but is, in fact, Semiramis.

WHAO, a correction is warranted here. There are five (5) million Assyrians total ? The Chaldean population in Iraq and abroad are estimated to be 400k at a minimum (worldwide) and a maximum of 650k but not likely, most agree it’s 500 - 550k worldwide. The Chaldean to Assyrian ratio is Chaldeans are 8 or 9 : 1 Assyrian, so the 5M number needs to be updated.

Aasura vs devas

The vast majority of Biblical scholars disagree "the original Bible was written in Aramaic". The Old Testament was written in Hebew and the New Testament was written almost entirely in Greek. This is the scholarly consensus.

The Kurds want their land. The assyrians want theirs. The Muslim world in the region is full of war. You pretty much want to reestablish the conquering empire of assyria but I don't think it will be possible anytime soon. The kurds managed to get their bit somehow though so let's see

I’m Assyrian from Turkey. The Assyrians were never promised land it was the Kurds who were promised. The Kurds saw this an opportunity to wipe out all the Assyrians so that South East Turkey could be theirs. At this time the Ottoman Empire was collapsing and First World War broke out. Turkey was attacked from different angles and many western countries wanted a peace of Turkey. This was an very unfortunate event that lead to the massacre of the Assyrians. But the Assyrians always wanted to live in peace. Get your facts right.
