FRI, 20 FEB 2009 21:44 "We have been living together for hundreds of years: Kurds, Assyrians, Chaldeans, Syriacs, Turkmen, Arabs, Muslims, Christians, Yezidis, and other components of our society. We have never allowed religious and sectarian differences to make us weak. In fact, the diversity among us became a source of strength and power in the Kurdistan Region...Today, in the Kurdistan Region we have shown the world an example of religious and ethnic coexistence and culture, praised by other countries."
