The Rivers and marshes Are Dying & Iraq Too!

 


Mesopotamia The Land of No Rivers!

The Eternal Tigris & Euphrates Rivers,

The Marshes Are Dying & Land of Eden Too! 

Say NO to the Iranian, Turkey, & Kuwait Unspoken Genocide!

Please Speak Out Loud!

 

No Thanks to the big oil companies, Erdoğan’s regime, the Iranian theocratic regime, and other anti-Iraq haters.

In less than two and a half decades since Iraq lost its sovereignty in 2003, every neighboring country has taken advantage of the power vacuum in Iraq. What has worsened the living conditions is that all those who have been running Iraq since 2003 are anti-Iraq themselves!

 

It is not just that they have no love for Iraq, but they also have zero shame. It is realistic to say that they intentionally did more damage to Iraq than any inhumane invaders since our ancestors, the Chaldeans of Babylonia / Mesopotamia, lost their independence in 482 BC.

Among all the crimes they committed since 2003 (i.e., destroying the infrastructure of Iraq, obstructing the industry, agriculture, banking, and the educational system, etc.), I will focus on one unbelievable, heinous crime: drying Iraq's water resources!

 

Many tributaries of the Tigris River originate in Iran. Since 2008, due to the vacuum of power in Iraq, the Iranian regime has blocked the water of the Diyala River and redirected the courses of 19 brooks, streams, and creeks that flow from their sources in Iran and empty their water into the Tigris or the marshes.

 

After the 2003 regime change in Iraq, Turkey dared for the first time to commit an international water crime by violating Article 109 of the Treaty of Lausanne (1923), and all the international agreements signed between Iraq and Turkey, including the most important treaty, the 1946 Treaty of Friendship and Good Neighborhood.

 

Whenever there is an evil committed against Iraq, the hateful Kuwaiti regime is always involved. In April 2010, the Kuwaiti regime financed a Syrian project that altered the course of the Tigris River and forcibly diverted the flow into Syrian territory through the Ain Diwar Canal, which is an artificial canal with a length of 29 kilometers.

 

Unfortunately, experts predict that by 2040, if Iraq does not solve this catastrophic crisis while the entire world is watching tongue-tied, then Iraq will lose its water source. Drying Mesopotamia's eternal rivers is drastically changing the ecosystem, endangering plants and all kinds of species, including livestock, fish, marsh buffalo, and rare birds that have been living or migrating to the marshes for over one hundred thousand years. Death will be widespread, they will become extinct and Mesopotamia, the Garden of Eden and the Land of Two Rivers will be referred to as the Land of No Rivers!

Where are the human rights organizations?

Where are the animal rights organizations?

Where are the Climate change Organizations?

This is an Unspoken GENOCIDE to the people, to the animals, to the plants, and to every living thing in the Land of Firsts!

Please Speak Out Loud, because if you do not, then you are siding with those who intentionally are committing Genocide. Clear & Simple!

Bring Them Home Now!

 


Help Bring The Abducted Civilian Israelis Home!

עם ישראל חי

 

As a visual artist and historian, I strongly condemn antisemitism and any kind of hate speech or act against natives and minorities. The acts of terrorism perpetrated against innocent Israeli citizens on October 7th by Hamas beasts is one of the most gruesome, inhumane acts of terrorism, which is similar to the horrific atrocity that ISIS, Hezbollah, and Iranian Islamist militias have been committing against Chaldeans (native Iraqi Christians), Jews, Mandaeans, Yazidis in Iraq, Syriac and Jews of Syria, and Maronite Christians in Lebanon for decades! 

On October 7th, the Islamist monsters of Hamas raped, killed, burned, and beheaded innocent Israelis, as well as kidnapped babies, children, young females, and other civilians, including Holocaust survivors. 

The enclosed cards show my support for Israel and the Jewish people worldwide. Please fight hate, bigotry, and antisemitism by sharing them with your list of contacts. We have to bring the innocent kidnapped Israeli civilians back now! 

Bring Them Home Now!


 Peace,

~ Amer

This year is no different but the show will be held on September 1st, because on September 15th countless Jews worldwide will celebrate the eve of Rosh Hashanah. Others will celebrate one of the most ancient Babylonian national holidays: The Sacred Tree of Life (date palm tree) Day, also known in the Land of Eden as The Renewal of Life Day. It is also worth noting that dates are a fruit considered holy by the Hebrews (שִׁבְעַת הַמִינִים, Shiv'at HaMinim, Deuteronomy 8:8).

This year is also exceptional because artist Fatuhi will carefully share with selected creative females the many flavors of his artwork for the last three decades, i.e., (themes, concepts, & techniques) as well as a glimpse of his coming two-man art show with artist John Romi, The Ember & The Rose. The event will include paintings, sculptures & poems that share creativity physically, emotionally, and intellectually with the audience.

Annie Salatyan, the Armenian American artist, is the curator of the show. She is also the senior curator at EA Art Gallery www.EA-ArtG.com. 


Artist Fatuhi may also briefly talk and share the Press-release of his new book The Jews of Babylon, Past & Present, which is scheduled to be released in the second half of August 2023. To learn about the book visit www.JewsofBabylon-Book.com

Why The CNF Was Copyrighted?

 

The Chaldean National Flag In The Loop

           Chaldeans the indigenous people of Mesopotamia are so confident of their history and remarkable heritage. Thus no Chaldean will visit a site or a Facebook page run by the so-called 20th Century Assyrian Cult to attack them or leave a message of hate behind. We are just focusing on positive messages in life and educating others about over 7300 years of Chaldeans' deep and rich history. May 17th is the Chaldean National Flag Day and I would like on this blessed occasion to explain to those who are not aware of the fact that the Chaldean National Flag CNF is also considered a masterpiece artwork. The main goal of this article is to furnish our beloved Chaldeans and friends with sufficient relevant information and particular technical details about the Chaldean National Flag, i.e., CNF Copyright. 

INTRODUCTION

Before answering the hilarious question addressed every so often by some anti-Chaldean racist regarding the copyright certificate of the Chaldean National Flag, I want to bring to everybody’s attention an important point concerning the Assyrian Flag.

It is worth noting that the Chaldean Nestorians aka Aṭuraie/Chaldeaie Neṣtornaie who adopted in 1976 the ancient state name (Assyria) and falsely claimed it as an ethnic name are violating both scientific history discoveries and Biblical statements. All the historical documents assure that the modern cult's made-up name (Assyrian) was faked by the MI-6 in London, England, and embossed on these Chaldean Nestorians to use them as local pawns who could assist them in achieving their colonial mission in the Middle East. However, this false identity was never adopted officially until 1976. This unprecedented action to adopt the British made-name was taken after assassinating their superior leader, the Chaldean Nestorian Patriarch Mar Shimun XXIII Eshai on Nov. 6, 1975, who strongly refused to change his ancestor's official Church Seal from Chaldean to the 20th-century Assyrian cult fake name.

As it is well known, the designer of the 20th Century Assyrian Cult’s flag was the late George Atanous, a mere historian and definitely no artist. He was born in Russia in 1919. His parents were Chaldeaie Neṣtornaie originally from the town of Urmia, Iran. He studied for two years after high school in India (oilfields technical drawing). His design that was imposed on the 1976 cult by the Assyrian Universal Alliance AUA (a hardcore hateful group and anti-Chaldean politically motivated) was rejected for years by the majority of that cult. In fact, that inaccurate design shape and composition derived from the British flag and was openly criticized and refused by the Assyrian American Educational Association.

However, because of too much political pressure and money involved in this matter, the design was posted on the front cover of the September/October 1981 issue of the Assyrian Star magazine depicts the 1981 Miss Assyrian winner holding the so-called modern Assyrian flag.

           Despite that approval from the Assyrian American Educational Association, the design was and still is depicted today in two different shapes - with and without the top symbol of the god Shamash, who is also referred to in some sources as the god Ashur. To learn about this Egyptian / Asiatic-Anatolian symbol, read the section Relishing the Illusion in The Untold Story of Native Iraqis, Chaldean Mesopotamians 5300 BC – Present, PP 131-140. 

ANSWERING A QUESTION: IS THE CNF COPYRIGHTED & WHY?

           The right question is: Can flag designs be copyrighted? The simplest answer is Yes, we can trademark a flag according to the International Copyright Institute. However, one may still ask why the Chaldean National Flag was copyrighted in the first place.

Due to the fact that the designer of the Chaldean National Flag is an established professional artist and a member of the International Association of Art (iaa/aiap) UNESCO Paris, since 1986, he has honored the 1954 iaa Bylaws. Any member of iaa, as well as art critics and professional artists, know the fact that I have to honor iaa 1954 bylaws and register my designs (i.e. the Chaldean National Flag).

           Incidentally, to have an idea about my artistic level, I am the only professional artist who won the two international contests to design the Iraqi National Flag in 1986 and 2008. Furthermore, this unique and unmatched design of the CNF was registered for the first time in 1986 at the Ministry of Local Government in Baghdad, Iraq. Any design or artwork is considered the intellectual property of the artist by iaa and the International Copyright Institute. The copyright registry can easily prevent others from altering or even claiming the artwork. It is also quite known that “Copyright is important as it helps to protect the value of an author/academic/researcher's work, by giving the originator of the work the ability to protect it from unlicensed or uncredited usage.”

          The 2003 Federal Court records prevented an unqualified party from claiming and altering the original design of CNF. Post-federal-court verdict, the original design is internally protected and the federal decision became law. Therefore, I decided in 2004, as the owner of the CNF intellectual property, that it was about time to publicly announce giving unlimited permission and authorization that applies to all Chaldeans worldwide to use the legitimate design of the Chaldean National Flag (CNF) as long as it would not be reshaped, reformed, altered, or modified. I also openly and publicly stated in 2004 that the official CNF design is my 100% gift to my beloved Chaldean Nation worldwide. See the link below:

Finally, I would like to thank the Chaldean Heritage Foundation for giving me this opportunity to expose the ongoing smearing messages and other attempts that are part of the continuing laughable campaign that I have faced since I began exposing one of the biggest lies in modern history, which is the 20th Century Assyrian Cult in 1999.
