[edit] "One Million Assyrians"

There is no way that the Hakkâri mountains house over one million Assyrians" prior to WWI.

(This is not a denial that they were in majority or that there wasn't a genocide.) —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 85.105.159.74 (talk • contribs) 10:31, 21 November 2006.

I agree. I dont know who added this. But the point the person was trying to make that that number of Assyrians were much higher 100 years ago in Hakkari then it is today. I remember reading quite a few books stating that Hakkari had a Christian majority and had a population in the hundred of thousand, but that Christian population had Armenian elements as well Chaldean 03:08, 22 November 2006 (UTC)

OK, then let's remove that false sentence. Awat 21:08, 22 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Hakkâri

This page should be moved to Hakkâri (note the surconflex on the second a). I think I've fixed the misspelling everywhere else. Xemxi
