    This looks more like a PR stunt for Saudi to say, "look we are taking better care of the Iranians than their own government." I doubt any actual aid will go through as they have made many unfulfilled promises to Iraq before about funding building and infrastructural projects.

    💔This is nauseating. There are open rallies in Pakistan where they call for the blood of Shia Hazara refugees are being slaughtered in their place of refuge and the Pakistani government gives more protection to the rally-goers calling for murder of Shia than the Shia themselves.

    Here is the "Century Song" that was sung by ASWJ a few years ago to celebrate the murder of hundreds of Hazaras. In it they openly claimed they will murder more Shias. Instead of State stopping this state actually gave them…

    UAE and Saudi Red Crescent authorities have launched a joint initiative to also help citizens affected in Iran. Does that mean the UAE and Saudi governments are inseparable with the Iranian government? What kind of analysis is this...

    More sources confirm PMU’s deployment to Iran’s Ahwaz province. The PMU are paid by the Iraqi government! That means Iraq Gov’t and Iran’s regime are almost inseparable now.…

    Important thread 👇

    While I don’t endorse a separate southern region, I also do NOT have the patience for any non southern Iraqis belittling and insulting our efforts towards bettering our circumstances. Humble yourselves.

    The arrogance some non southern Iraqis show is both hideous and counter productive.

    “They can’t even play a game of pool without killing each other, they think they can manage their own region?” Have you ever been south of Najaf, honestly?🤨🤨

    It’s not funny, it’s not interesting, it’s not meaningful, it’s just lame. It makes me think your understanding and compassion regarding the south is ..less than average.

    In my heart I wish Assyrians would be proud to be Iraqi but I cannot be mad at them for not wanting to be given that they've been culturally excluded so much.

    If you want Assyrians to feel Iraqi then maybe start treating them like your fellow Iraqis and stop invalidating their feelings towards their lack of inclusion and their identity at every turn.

    To Assyrians, here are documents attesting your identity. Enjoy! Also for the racists, this isn’t for you, fuck you. Mark Gewargis deserves an award for his time/money…

    And now he takes it upon himself to tell Assyrians what to identify as and contests their claims to their own heritage. Luckily made just the thread to counter this.

    Again, nobody said you’re not persecuted. Stop putting words in my mouth. As for the quotation marks, well: you’re Syriac, (سرياني). Not Assyrian, not Chaldean—Syriac. Just because you call yourself after dead and long…

    Remember when Trump kept insisting that Muslims in New Jersey were celebrating after 9/11 and was still elected president? The fault, dear America, is not in our stars, but in ourselves.
