  • Sister Nazek Matty About Her Return in Iraq
    Sister Nazek Matty about her return in Iraq: Sometimes we find it difficult to share our unusual experiences, simply because we have no words to describe them. In these few lines, I will try to share the most unusual experience I have ever lived in my life. In so doing I am taking this opportunity to extend my thanks to those kind people who helped me grow in many ways. I finished my doctorate programme in February 2014. The title of my thesis was: Historical Reconstruction of Sennacherib’s Campaign against Judah and Jerusalem in 701. I returned to my country, Iraq, in March 2014. I was so grateful to the Lord that he put on my path extremely kind and generous people who helped me study and achieve my ambition to be a biblical researcher. When I arrived in Iraq, I was really happy to be reunited with my Dominican Sisters and my family. The conditions were not settled, yet I was hoping, like other Iraqi Christians, that they would improve. In few weeks I was asked to teach Introduction to the New Testament at a Catholic Centre in Qaraqosh/Nineveh (about 30 km from Mosul); also, I was offered to teach as a lecturer at Babel College (a Catholic college based in Ankawa/Erbil) for the academic year 2014-2015. I was glad that things were going as I had hoped. But summer came in Iraq with wicked winds that disturbed everything and made us all reconsider what we had planned. The ISIS entered Mosul and captured it on the 9th of June, and then we had to face a new reality realizing that our presence in Iraq as Christians was openly and rigorously threatened.

  • Abstract Title of Dissertation: NEGOTIATING the PLACE OF
    Abstract Title of Dissertation: NEGOTIATING THE PLACE OF ASSYRIANS IN MODERN IRAQ, 1960–1988 Alda Benjamen, Doctor of Philosophy, 2015 Dissertation Directed by: Professor Peter Wien Department of History This dissertation deals with the social, intellectual, cultural, and political history of the Assyrians under changing regimes from the 1960s to the 1980s. It examines the place of Assyrians in relation to a state that was increasing in strength and influence, and locates their interactions within socio-political movements that were generally associated with the Iraqi opposition. It analyzes the ways in which Assyrians contextualized themselves in their society and negotiated for social, cultural, and political rights both from the state and from the movements with which they were affiliated. Assyrians began migrating to urban Iraqi centers in the second half of the twentieth century, and in the process became more integrated into their societies. But their native towns and villages in northern Iraq continued to occupy an important place in their communal identity, while interactions between rural and urban Assyrians were ongoing. Although substantially integrated in Iraqi society, Assyrians continued to retain aspects of the transnational character of their community. Transnational interactions between Iraqi Assyrians and Assyrians in neighboring countries and the diaspora are therefore another important phenomenon examined in this dissertation. Finally, the role of Assyrian women in these movements, and their portrayal by intellectuals,

  • 2018 Human Rights Report
    2018 Human Rights Report Struggling to Breathe: the Systematic Repression of Assyrians ABOUT ASSYRIANS An estimated 3.5 million people globally comprise a distinct, indigenous ethnic group. Tracing their heritage to ancient Assyria, Assyrians speak an ancient language called Assyrian (sometimes referred to as Syriac, Aramaic, or Neo-Aramaic). The contiguous territory that forms the traditional Assyrian homeland includes parts of southern and south-eastern Turkey, north-western Iran, northern Iraq, and north-eastern Syria. This land has been known as Assyria for at least four thousand years. The Assyrian population in Iraq, estimated at approximately 200,000, constitutes the largest remaining concentration of the ethnic group in the Middle East. The majority of these reside in their ancestral homelands in the Nineveh Plain and within the so- called Kurdish Region of Iraq. Assyrians are predominantly Christian. Some ethnic Assyrians self-identify as Chaldeans or Syriacs, depending on church denomination. Assyrians have founded five Eastern Churches at different points during their long history: the Ancient Church of the East, the Assyrian Church of the East, the Chaldean Catholic Church, the Syriac Catholic Church, and the Syriac Orthodox Church. Many of these churches, as well as their various denominations, have a Patriarch at their head; this role functions, to various degrees, in a similar way to the role of the Pope in Roman Catholicism. There are at least seven different Patriarchs who represent religious Assyrian communities – however, these individuals frequently experience oppression from governmental institutions in their native countries, and consequentially often face pressure that prevents them from disclosing accurate information on the subject of human rights.
