Sepa12, the distinction between Assyrians, Chaldeans, and Babylonians—variously used as ethnic and political terms—goes back far beyond the beginning of the Catholic church. It was not imposed by any pope, but is reflected in the political and military clashes between the dynasties with power bases in Assur and Nineveh (northern, Assyrian) and those in Babylon (southern, Babylonian). Admittedly, in an 8.5 minute video, there are oversimplifications, but we shouldn't erase all distinctions.

B.C.E. my ass you christ denier! It's B.C.!

[drchrisheard]

@Elinitsam I don't deny Christ in any way. I'm a big fan, in fact. And I don't think that using "BCE" instead of "BC" makes me a Christ-denier any more than using the name "Wednesday" for the middle of the work week makes me an Odin/Wotan-worshiper. And, I must say, cussing out those who don't use the abbreviations you prefer seems a strange way to honor Christ.

@myASSYRIANpride Leaving aside the point that claiming "your" empire fell 18 years earlier than I stated is a very strange way to show "pride," the fact is that you're wrong. The last Babylonian surge against Assyria indeed began around 625, but Nineveh didn't fall until 612, and a cohesive Assyrian military held out farther west until the battle of Haran c. 607.

Jews have always brought war on them selfs by wanted to expand territory . They have infiltrated wars and have had America fight wars for them by this infiltration. As you see whats happening today .. Israel is trying to push the USA into war with Iran . They have pushed the USA into war with Iraq , Afganistan , and Libya . Now its Iran . Israel does not exist . Its a stolen state that belongs to the Palestinian people and the world knows it . Jews also like to play there holacust card .

The fall of Nineveh shocked the ancient world. The Jewish prophet Nahum described the Median armies advancing to the city that had once ruled the Near East.

An attacker advances against you, Nineveh. [...]

The shields of his soldiers are red;

the warriors are clad in scarlet.

The metal on the chariots flashes

on the day they are made ready;

the spears of pine are brandished.

The chariots storm through the streets,

rushing back and forth through the squares

They look like flaming

[Ashuralia]

For as Jonas was three days and three nights in the whale's belly; so shall the Son of man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth.

The men of Nineveh shall rise in judgment with this generation, and shall condemn it: because they repented at the preaching of Jonas; and, behold, a greater than Jonas is here.

—Gospel of Matthew, chapter 12 verses 39-41
