“These are dark times, my son.” The hidden Christian Genocide the British let happen in 1933. A British general named R.S Stafford described its brutality: “A cold-blooded and methodical massacre of all the men in the village… as foul a crime as any in the bloodstained annals of the Middle East." Assyrians lost half their population to the Turks & Kurds between 1915-1924. They were split across four countries & betrayed by the British who they fought alongside during WW1. They naively trusted their Christian brothers. The newly formed Iraqi State, as it sought to mould its nationhood by blood, painted Assyrians as a Colonial Fifth Column. After an intense & lengthy propaganda campaign, an Iraqi general of Kurdish origin lead the genocide after the genocide. Assyrians in the Dohuk Region, already butchered by Ottomans & Kurds, were systematically targeted by Iraqi forces. The Simele massacre was far smaller in scale to Seyfo, but had a greater psychological impact. It fragmented church communities who began distancing themselves from the Assyrian cause, lest they fall to the sword. Patriarchs retreated into their communities & saw a unified Assyrian Christian cause as a liability - one that would get them killed. Stafford was an eyewitness to the events surrounding Simele & wrote a book titled “The Tragedy of The Assyrians”. He went to Alqosh on August 21 of 1933 & found Assyrians “utterly-panic stricken”. "In this unspeakable atmosphere there lived for six days, one thousand terrified women and children who had seen all their male relations killed before their eyes." Simele broke the spirit of the Assyrians, which was somehow still intact after losing half their population in the Ottoman Genocide. It sealed their fate into insular church communities who kept their heads down to survive. Just like the Iraq War in 2003 & ISIS in 2014, two catastrophes within 20 years. Two genocides in 20 years. 1915 to 1933. Iraq still does not recognize the massacre.
