I would like to know why the category Assyria is allowed while category Kurdistan is being removed? Is there exact boundaries for Assyria? As far as I remember that's the main reason given for removing the Kurdistan category. Heja Helweda 22:44, 21 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Qamishli belongs to Assyria

Heja, Wikipedia's goal is to tell the truth. Not political made up rubbish. Those are the rules of Wikipedia. Qamishli belongs to Assyria. The present Syrian Arab presence is only occupation. This is a truth all scholars are agree about. Qamishli don't belong to Kurdistan, neither now or in history. //Alfa.

[edit] Name

Is the name Qamishli or Al Qamishli? Just curious because of the photo in the article. Baristarim 05:18, 25 December 2006 (UTC)

Al Qamishli. Move in progress. Thank you! - Anas Talk? 12:07, 12 March 2007 (UTC)
I requested it to be moved in WP:RM. The Al Qamishli space is occupied. - Anas Talk? 12:18, 12 March 2007 (UTC)
Once moved, do you then want Qamishli to redirect to Al Qamishli, or is that not necessary? Bubba hotep 12:29, 12 March 2007 (UTC)
I've performed the move as requested. Just let me know if you still want the Qamishli redirect in there still. :) Bubba hotep 12:38, 12 March 2007 (UTC)
Yes, It would be appropriate to leave it as a redirect page, just as it is now. Thanks Bubba! :-) - Anas talk? 12:57, 20 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] remove "WikiProject Kurdistan"

someone should remove WikiProject Kurdistan from this Syrian city. Al Qamishly belongs to the Syrian Arab Republic. kurdish immigrants came from turkey and tried to steal the city to the made up fake country "kurdistan"

These dangerous claims must be stopped. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.228.102.136 (talk) 09:38, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

Hi, regarding Jews in Syria, in a few seconds I could find this informative source in English.

The facts that Kurds and Jews in are largely harrassed in Syria is not something naive. Sharishirin (talk) 21:37, 31 March 2008 (UTC)
