GUEST,highlandman BS: So many disagreements and controversies... (80* d) RE: BS: So many disagreements and controversies... 09 Apr 08


Iraq is culturally and linguistically Arab, but ethnically (majority) Aramaic. So I have read anyway; I lack the time or the courage to do the field research. The territory was indeed part of the Persian empire for a time.
Iran remains culturally, linguistically and ethnically descended from the Persians.
Of course these are over-generalizations. Iraq in particular has been trampled over so many times by various warring empires that it has one of the most diverse populations in the Middle East.

PS what happened to the TP argument?
