Flashpoint: Amuda?


Amuda, Syria:

The demographics of this area saw a huge shift in the early part of the 20th century. Kurdish tribes cooperated with Ottoman authorities in the genocide against Armenian and Assyrian Christians in Upper Mesopotamia and were in return granted their land as a reward. Kurdish tribes attacked and sacked Assyrian and Armenian villages in Albaq District immediately to the north of Hakkari mountains, killing large numbers of villagers.[8][9][10][11] In 1936, French forces bombarded Amuda (Tusha Amudi). On 13 August 1937, in a revenge attack, about 500 Kurds from the Dakkuri, Milan, and Kiki tribes attacked the then predominantly Christian Amuda and burned the town down. The Christian population, about 300 families, fled to the towns of Qamishli and Hasakah.

In 1941, the Assyrian community of al-Malikiyah was subjected to a vicious assault. Even though the assault failed, Assyrians were terrorized and left in large numbers, and the immigration of Kurds from Turkey to the area have resulted in a Kurdish majority in Amuda, al-Malikiyah, and al-Darbasiyah.[16][17]

On 13 November 1960, more than 200 children died in a fire at a movie theatre, the Amouda cinema.[18] There is a park in Amuda that commemorates the event.[19]

On 12 March 2004, an anti-government uprising took place in the city. As of 2004, Amuda is the fourth largest town in Al-Hasakah governorate.[20]

In July 2017 the 90-year old Mor Elias Church was restored and reopened in the city. As of 2017 only one Assyrian family remains in Amuda.

Didn't know the Kurds participated in the genocide of the Armenians.

Man, karma is a real bitch.

They did massacre Armenians but you should also know that prior to that Armenian nationalist gangs were massacring Kurdish and Turkish villagers (women and children) en masse with torturous methods while the men were at the fronts defending against invading allied forces. Then the Ottoman government planned to deport Armenians to Syria because they were causing trouble with their seperatism and were acting as fifth column for Russian invaders. Armenian convoys were attacked by Turkish and Kurdish tribesmen who sought for revenge or booty on their way. Ottoman empire being a failed state at the time were unable to provide enough logistics and protection to Armenians which resulted in unfortunate demise of many Armenians. It was a shameful ethnical cleansing on our part but people should never forget that the responsiblity lies primarily on the western powers of that time who were using armenians to act on their behalf against Turkish and Kurdish population. Armenians were tricked by western powers to rebel against and ethincally cleanse the Turks and Kurds so that they would get their own state. They ended up getting ethnically cleansed themselves for their actions at the end.

They also participated in the displacement (ethnic cleansing) of the Assyrian Christians in their area -- not just Armenians.

What comes around...

Yeah thats true. Assyrians are pretty angry at them and for good reasons. Though it goes unnoticed by many cuz the Kurds have really mastered propaganda at portraying themselves as pluralist, secular, pro freedom force, perfectly hiding their ultra nationalist tendencies.... Not many know how they have displaced the Assyrians, the Turkmen and the Arabs in Northern Syria. If they really want to form their Kurdistan they should try their chances in Northwestern Iran which was where they have expanded from originally. They are an Iranic people, alien to Syria and Anatolia.

Which is why the Iranians are helping the Syrian Kurds.

Strange that Israelis and Iranians would both be helping them.


I think Israelis bought the hype that the Kurds are the latest "victims" of a modern-day holocaust.

I started to believe it myself.

I think the Israelis support them because they have a good potential to become a really useful tool at balkanizing the region. I hope the Kurds come to their senses quickly and stop working for imperialist powers.

Let them have at it. I'll make the popcorn.

Are you going to use a fork or the salt?

Neither -- the ban button.

Or it could be something more sinister.

I'm more concerned about Greater Iran right now:

Iran, Iraq, Gaza, Lebanon, Syria and Yemen.

The thing about antichrists is, imo, there are plenty to go around.

Children, it is the last hour; and just as you have heard that the antichrist is coming, so now many antichrists have appeared. This is how we know it is the last hour.

He's not a politician

Will Russia come against Turkey and help Assad ? Or help Turkey ?
that's what has always confused me about the Syria war, which side will Russia choose ?

You're a fucking idiot.

This is designed to get Russia and the US to go to war with each other...

And the West cant wait until turkey is kicked out of NATO. What a POS country turkey is. turkey should get rid of islam and maybe they would come to their senses.

snip from the recent Assad interview:

"when (Erdogan) does not leave after we exhaust every possible means, there won’t be any other choice but war, this is self-evident. I am saying that in the near future we must give room to the political process in its various forms. If it does not yield results then this is an enemy and you go to war against it; there is no other choice."

Either Turkey should be kicked out or we should leave.


I'd actually prefer the latter.
