Aram: Vision and
Strategy
Posted on August 2, 2011
Considering that the West Bank of Jordan is rather likely to be
conclusively partitioned in September, the Arameans and other
Crypto-Jewish ethnicities of Grand Liban should look at parallel
political opportunities so as similarly and simultaneously with a
conclusive Israeli partition of the West Bank of Jordan also divide
Grand Liban between Jordan and a free Aram. Alawi communities,
including nominally Sunni, yet still Crypto-Alawi communities in the
north of Grand Liban should instead become annexed to a free, new
Alawi state to the north. Even if the September brouhaha is
ultimately cancelled by Ramallah, this is still a suitable time for
conclusive and peaceful partition of that misguided French colonial
construction originally known as Grand Liban.
The ancient-modern Aramaic idiom is one that brings together
contemporary Crypto-Jewish Arameans with Talmudic Jews, considering
that the Talmud is largely written in Aramaic. The Aramaic Kaddish
prayer is in its various versions the by far the most commonly
recited prayer in rabbinical liturgy. Modern Aramaic is still spoken
among the Talmudic Jewish communities of Kurdistan and Iranian
Azerbaijan whose members now mostly live in Israel. Indeed, Aramaic
used to be natively spoken among many more West Asian Talmudic
Jewish communities and the Judean idiom (a very distinct Semitic
idiom usually known under the historical misnomer of “Judeo-Arabic”)
is very strongly influenced by both Aramaic and Hebrew in a great
many aspects.
Aramaic Christians, Mandeans and some Muslims have retained the
Aramaic idiom to various degrees, yet both Aramaic Christians and
Greek rite communities in the region do belong to Crypto-Jewish
ethnicities and even those communities that traditionally use Greek
rather than Aramaic in their liturgy were indeed Aramean-speakers
before being Amianized under Muslim rule. The Crypto-Jewish Druze
community similarly also spoke Aramaic before becoming idiomatically
Amianized. The respective Druze and Greek rite communities of
Lebanon & Anti-Lebanon, would therefore as neighboring Crypto-Jewish
communities, be fully welcome to join a free Aram, their respective
historical/political dissimulation and grandstanding notwithstanding.
Members of Greek-rite ethnic units of the region should thus have
the same immigration rights to Aram as should indeed the Aramaic
Christians and the Aramaic Mandeans. In addition, there is also some
neighboring, nominally Muslim, Crypto-Jewish communities in the area
that should indeed also be quite welcome to join Aram. It needs
repeating that a free Aram and other federal subjects of a new
federal Israel would for as long as the citizens of a state so
prefer or deem necessary, each retain their own distinct state
citizenship and control over their own state borders, including full
control over international immigration and intra-federal migration
while focusing on economic, military and intellectual integration
within and among the constituent states of an emerging, new, free,
federal Israel with Jerusalem as its federal capital.
Syria’s main Crypto-Jewish regions of Alawis, Druze, Ismailis and
Kurds, together with some Aramean and Greek rite areas are to be
expected to take the political opportunity to secede following the
end of the present Syrian form of government. Indeed, the Druze
people should have their own titular immigration rights to a
reestablished free Druze state in the Druze Mountain region in
present southern Syria as should the Alawis, Syrian Ismailis and
Kurds to their respective Israeli states. Yet, the Druze of the
Chouf & Anti-Lebanon regions should be made to feel no less welcome
in a free Aram than do the Israeli Druze in sovereign Israel. All
young citizens of a free Aram should indeed be educated through the
ancient-modern Aramaic idiom which means that many Greek-rite areas
and Druze areas of Lebanon & Anti-Lebanon would become an intrinsic
part of the Aramean people by means of both Aramean citizenship and
Aramaic state-financed general education pertaining to a rich
cultural, idiomatic and historical heritage which is indeed theirs
as well.
An Ismaili state in the Syrian Salamiyah region and a Druze state in
the Syrian south should each be territorially contiguous with Aram
through territorial intersections through the desert as completely
voluntary member states of a new federal Israel and the Aramean part
of the Syrian Desert will indeed be badly needed territory for
millions of Aramean (including many Near Eastern Greek rite)
immigrants to Aram. September presents indeed an opportune time for
conclusive partition between Israel and Jordan with regard to the
Palestinian dispute, yet also so with respect to national partition
simultaneously in neighboring Grand Liban as well as increasingly
likely so in Syria too. The parliamentary representatives of the
Crypto-Jewish ethnicities of Grand Liban should therefore take this
strategic opportunity for peaceful partition which this September
and their own parliamentary majority status present. Amians of Grand
Liban (and indeed of Syria) are invited to join a new Jordanian-led
Amian federation with their own self-governing federal subjects,
just as predominantly Crypto-Jewish territories are invited to join
sovereign Israel as part of a new Israeli federation.
However, if the Iranian polity and its military proxies in the
region were indeed to be instructed by Teheran to engage in military
aggression and even attempted genocide so as to prevent mutually
peaceful partition between Amians and Jews/Crypto-Jews, both here
and there, similar to what was indeed attempted against the Jews of
Israel in 1948, then that would indeed be quite regrettable. The
Amian Shia community of Grand Liban would be rather well-advised to
view this as a beneficial, political opportunity to achieve national
unification and official regional self-government for ethnically
Shia Amians as part of a unified federal Amistan under royal
Jordanian leadership on the path to political freedom and
representative government. As native speakers of the great Amian
idiom, the Shia community of Grand Liban speaks natively neither
Persian, nor the long-since dead Arabic. Breaking free from Iran’s
colonialism and imperialism is surely not easy, yet this is the only
reasonable option for the Shia community of Grand Liban, although
mere reason in and of itself is certainly not a guarantee of peace
and peaceful partition.
The Iranian polity’s tyrannical, yet highly secretive, clerical deep
state would therefore be extremely well advised to carefully make
sure not to select the path of imperialist aggression against the
broader Jewish nation, whether against Israel, against Kurdistan,
within Grand Liban or indeed elsewhere such as against the US Jewish
community.
