I am passionate about preserving the rights, livelihood and culture of Assyrians all over the world. Whether being of Assyrian, Chaldean or Syriac origin, we are all one people. I believe that it is our duty to assist our Assyrian brothers and sisters in the Middle East if we are in a position to do so. We must unite in our aims to help one another, preserve our language, our culture and our faith.. I pray that one day there will be peace in Iraq.
