SUMERIAN IS NOT AN ISOLATED LANGUAGE! It’s connected to the modern Indo-European languages (English, French, . ). IT ALSO DIDN'T DIE 4000 YEARS AGO AS THEY CLAIM. This new historical finding demonstrated in this video, will change our understanding about history forever!

Nawaritum of Kurdistan (c. 1800 BC) was the first known female military leader. Centuries later, Simon Berington noted the legacy of martial Kurdish women: "their very women are martial. ".I explore this history in my book & new YouTube documentary: [

The 10th-century historian al-Masudi identified the Levant as a region inhabited by Kurds. Centuries before Saladin, a Syrian castle was already called Hisn al-Akrad (Fortress of the Kurds). Syria's "Arab identity" is a recent colonial-era construct, not an ancient reality.

In 1973, Syria's Ba'ath regime implemented the "Arab Belt" project in Rojava—a state-sponsored policy of demographic change targeting Kurds. An estimated 140,000 Kurds were displaced as their fertile lands were confiscated and given to Arab settlers. #ArabBelt #Syria #Rojava

In 1853, Kurdish chief Fatima Rash led warriors in Istanbul, continuing a long tradition of female leadership. This custom was so strong that in the 17th c., Evliya Celebi saw Ottoman law adapt to allow female succession in Kurdistan, which he called common & "wholly accepted".

Over 100 years ago, Allied powers divided Kurdistan after WWI, a historic injustice. My documentary explores this story through a Kurdish lens. Watch the full film in Kurdish: [.#Kurdistan #WWI #KurdishHistory

Listen to Syria's new de facto leader, Abu Mohammad al-Jolani, explain Turkey's priorities back in 2015:."I do not believe that the problem of the Turks is with [ISIS]. Their problem with the Kurds is bigger.".His words then explain the alliances we see now. #terrorists #Syria

To see how far these theories went, this 1930s article from the prominent Turkish newspaper Cumhuriyet suggests that the first Egyptian civilization, including the pyramids, was a Turkish creation. It was presented to the public as a major historical discovery.

Here's a look at the "Sun Language Theory." It was once promoted in Turkey to connect the nation's history to ancient civilizations like the Mayans and Sumerians. #History #Turkey #Linguistics #Historiography #DidYouKnow

A documented case of historical erasure by the Turkish state: The history of the Kurdish Shaddadid dynasty was nearly lost when a shortened Turkish translation hid their 128-year rule. It took scholar V. Minorsky's work with the original Arabic source to restore the truth.

In this video, Syria's de facto ruler, al-Jolani, admits he represents only "Sunni Arabs"—an agenda he enforced with recorded massacres of Alawites and Druze. This is the man with a $10M US bounty who was backed by Turkey and enabled by the West. His rise is the direct result.

From 'death oaths' in 2020 to ruling Syria today. This is HTS leader al-Jolani. His militants recently carried out massacres against the Druze community and persecuted other religious minorities. #Syria #Syrian

Is the concept of "Arab Civilization" a Western perception or a historical reality?.The great 14th-century historian Ibn Khaldun had a surprising answer. #History #MiddleEast #Kurds #IbnKhaldun

In 1902, the West coined the term "Middle East," a label reflecting its own worldview. But over 3,000 years ago, the name "Europe" itself likely comes from the Phoenician "erebu" (sunset)—a name reflecting their worldview of the west. #History #Etymology #Europe

On Syrian TV, the solution to government forces committing crimes isn't to stop the crimes—it's to ban the phones filming them. #Syria #Syrian

I'm still incredibly honored by the deep historical review of my book, written by esteemed historian Anwar Sultani. Humbled to see it has now surpassed 62,200 reads. His analysis is in Kurdish and is well worth reading (your browser can translate). [
