We r really having a communication problem, i made a statement becoz of his mentality which he displayed in his post.
Its not about government policy, things posted in this thread cant happen in any nation unless that nation is totally went nuts and governed by a strict dictator with immense power and even so its dangerous.
You cant govern a country with utmost terror, u can try and it wont last long. Doesnt matter what religion u r, or even u dont recognize god. This just doesnt make sense.

*Disclaimer: They were stories.
I have heard stories about Asyrians being deadly foes. From the Middle East, being the worst of them all. In terms of violence and war. But hey, I heard it from an Asyrian. So who knows.Syria cant be next, it doesnt have any oil deposits.

Syria was like a step brother always to other arabs, Jordan also doesnt have oil but they are a merchant minded tribe. Thats why Syria was the most close arab nation to U.S.S.R. Arabs are not known as good warriors, thats why they hired turks as mercenaries when turks moved from Asia to asia minor. In all their history there is only a select few battles and good commanders they produced. Selahaddin Eyyubi, Tarik bin Ziyad and Haild bin Velid.

Nah, we figured out you were talking about libel and slander and not insults...defintely a miscommunication problem, obviously steming from a translation issue.
It is being ruled with utmost terror and using fanatical ancient culture beliefs to govern people. You're right, it doesn't make much sense. Back only 5 years ago Iran was actually becoming less fanactical. College aged students were getting worldly educations, starting to wear jeans and t-shirts, hell women were walking around in public with their faces completely exposed, and even in designer clothes. However, the party in power did not want this, so they decided to kick out all of the people who did not hold the clerics as their "leaders" from their parliment. So when their new "elections" happened the people had no one to vote for except for the clerics and their followers. Thus Iran started to regress politically and you get the situation the world is in now with Iran. It was a shame, they almost turned that country into a productive, prosperous, and educated one. Almost.

:lol: If the US was truly after terrorists they would have invaded Syria, and not Iraq...but then again, the US should have never pulled so many troops out of Afghanstan and Pakistan when it was obvious where the key figures of Al Queda WERE hiding. Man couldn't run a baseball team, how could we expect him to run the leading power of the world. /sigh oh well.

Assyrians are not the same as Syrians. Assyrians are the ancient mesopotatimian culture that was barbarized by the British during the British Occupation of the middle east, to justify to the western world that arabs were barbarians since the beggining of time and therefore the British presence was proper and ok
