UNAMI condemns attack on Assyrian Christians in Duhok

ERBIL, Kurdistan Region – The United Nations Assistance Mission for Iraq (UNAMI) on Thursday stated that it strongly condemns an attack on Assyrian Christians in Duhok city earlier this week while they were celebrating Akitu – the Assyrian-Babylonian New Year. The mission also commended the security forces for swiftly arresting the perpetrator. 

An axe attack targeted Assyrian, Chaldean, and Syriac Christian celebrants gathered in Duhok city on Tuesday to celebrate Akitu. The assailant injured a young man and an elderly woman from Nineveh province who had come to Duhok to partake in the festivities. 

The UN mission in Iraq said in a statement that it strongly condemns the attack, stating that the assault “disrupted what was meant to be a peaceful and joyful religious celebration.”

The statement cited its chief Mohamed al-Hassan as praising “the swift and effective response by Iraqi authorities, which led to the immediate apprehension of the perpetrator.”

He added that the attack “threatens the spirit of coexistence and tolerance that Iraqis and the Iraqi authorities have worked diligently to rebuild and preserve,” calling the authorities to “to ensure those responsible are held accountable.”

The Kurdistan Region Presidency on Wednesday strongly condemned the attack.

“While strongly condemning this crime, we assure all Kurdistanis that the Kurdistan Region, as always, will remain a homeland of coexistence, peace, and stability for all its components, and in no way will it allow the disruption of the culture of coexistence, mutual acceptance, and tolerance. The criminal will face legal punishment,” the Kurdish presidency said in a statement. 

It noted that it remains in contact with relevant authorities to uncover the circumstances behind the “criminal attack.” 

On Tuesday night, the Kurdistan Region Security Council said the attacker shared the Islamic State’s (ISIS) ideology. “A person with terrorist beliefs sharing the ISIS ideology attacked citizens…

Román Zaragoza shares details on his “Ghosts” character’s love life and incorporating Lenape culture into the series

Actor Román Zaragoza, who stars as the character Sass in the CBS comedy “Ghosts,” is sharing details about his character’s struggling love life and how the show has approached incorporating Lenape culture.

“He’s a hopeless romantic. He wants to be loved. He wants to feel that love, and I think because he died so young that he still has that young heart. He’s an old soul, but young heart,” Zaragoza said in an interview with “CBS Mornings” about Sass.

Zaragoza revealed it was partially his idea for his character to be a virgin.

“We talked about it for awhile, and I pitched it because I was curious, because they were leading up to the fact that I feel like he was going to be a virgin, and then I think that something came out that he wasn’t, and I was like, ‘I think it’s funnier if he is.'”

In this week’s episode, another ghost brings back Joan, a potential love interest for Sass, who is a Lenape ghost.

“As a Native actor, it’s hard. A lot of the time, you get cast as an actor and as a consultant and you’re like, you know, I’m not Lenape. I’m not an expert on Lenape history or culture.”

Zaragoza credits the “Ghosts” showrunners for bringing someone in who is Lenape and an expert on its culture.

“Not every set does that, and I just gotta really thank Joe Port and Joe Wiseman, but we brought in Joe Baker who is the executive director of the Lenape Center … and he’s been just an incredible asset to our show,” Zaragoza said. Baker is also an enrolled member of the Delaware Tribe of Indians, according to the Lenape Center.

Beyond his character, Zaragoza joked about his height. While he stands at 5’10,” a Google search claims he’s…

Agency Road: From Burlington to the Indian Territory Part 6

A few miles west of the Parkersville location, we enter Birmingham, Iowa. It was laid out in 1839. Moving on we cross into Jefferson County.

Shortly we pass the former location of the small hamlet of Collette. It was a station on the Peavine Railroad that ran from Fort Madison to nearby Batavia.

Colette was established in 1887. When train service was discontinued in 1939, the city was abandoned.

An unassuming spot southeast of Libertyville, Iowa has historical significance. After the 1832 conflict that has come to be called the Black Hawk War, this area became the boundary between land titled to the U.S. government and the domain of the Sauk and Meskwaki.

Shortly, we enter Libertyville, Iowa.

Libertyville was laid out in 1842.

In the center of town is a historical marker that reads: “Here passed the Dragoon Trails. Blazed in 1835 by the First U.S. Dragoons under Colonel Stephen W. Kearney.”

These soldiers played an important role in opening the Iowa frontier.

Another unassuming area is about a mile west of Libertyville. In 1838, the Sauk and Meskwaki ceded more land to the US government.

Along the portion of Agency Road west of Libertyville were several small towns: Absecum, County Line, and Cotton Grove.

When the stagecoach picked Absecum for a station in 1855, it was given a post office and the one in nearby Cotton Grove was closed.

The village of County Line was located west of Absecum.

When the Rock Island Railroad put a depot there in 1876, the government selected it for a post office and closed the one in Absecum.

That led to Absecum’s downfall. County Line had two houses, a church, an elevator, a depot, and a post office. The village disappeared after the railroad line closed in 1932.

As we cross into Wapello County, we approach the location of the former village of Cotton Grove.

Nanticoke man sentenced for stabbing

https://img.particlenews.com/image.php?url=0JCRqe_104AgWAA00

WILKES-BARRE — A defense attorney for a Nanticoke man who admitted to stabbing a man in Wilkes-Barre last summer requested a sentence that would allow his client to remain at the Luzerne County Correctional Facility.

However, Luzerne County Assistant District Attorney James L. McMonagle noted Anthony “Niko” Perez, 30, stabbed the man in the back and evaded arrest by running from city police officers, ultimately leaving the sentence at the discretion of Judge David W. Lupas.

Lupas noted the severity of the offense when he sentenced Perez to 16 months to three years in state prison on a charge of aggravated assault and six months probation for evading arrest.

Perez apologized for his actions prior to being sentence on Monday. His attorney, Public Defender John Donovan, requested Perez remain at the county correctional facility as he has done well with no infractions.

Wilkes-Barre police arrested Perez when he was found hiding in brush near New Hancock Street after he was accused of stabbing Joseph Michael Caskey in the back on Bowman Street on June 25, 2024, according to court records.

Court records say several juvenile females were at a residence on Bowman Street to confront another juvenile female. The scene escalated into a physical confrontation that involved adults.

Caskey told police he heard someone disrespected his grandmother during the melee and was stabbed in the back by Perez who wore brass knuckles that had an attached knife, court records say.

Perez pled guilty to the charges Jan. 13. He was granted 279 days of pre-sentencing credit for time served at the county correctional facility.

Driven to Wisconsin after helping win U.S. Revolution, Mohicans now have bought land back home

One of the most storied tribes in Indian Nation has taken another step toward reclaiming history that was ripped away from it more than 200 years ago.

The Stockbridge-Munsee Mohican Tribe of Wisconsin recently closed a deal to purchase 372 undeveloped acres of Monument Mountain, which carries sacred meaning and is part of its original homeland in Massachusetts.

Shannon Holsey, President of the Stockbridge-Munsee Mohican Nation, makes remarks last summer.

Shannon Holsey, President of the Stockbridge-Munsee Mohican Nation, makes remarks last summer.

The Mohican Tribe had been located on what is now parts of Massachusetts and New York for thousands of years before being forced to move by European colonists, and eventually settling in Wisconsin more than 200 years ago. The tribe has been reclaiming some land in New York and Massachusetts in the past few years.

More: This tribe helped win the Revolution, then were expelled and migrated to Wisconsin. What’s changed now?

“It represents a ‘landback’ movement to reclaim land in a way that differs from the Western colonial way of thinking about it,” Stockbridge-Munsee Mohican Nation President Shannon Holsey said in a statement. “We are trying to reclaim our ways of being, which was never based on money. It’s the reclamation of our kinship systems, our governance systems, our ceremony and spirituality, our language, our culture and our food and medicinal systems. Those are all based on our relationship to the land.”

Mohican people still make pilgrimages to Monument Mountain as it has always been a place where tribal members would leave stone offerings imbued with prayers to Creator. The stones had been formed into a monument, giving the mountain its name.

The mountain’s peak reaches 1,642 feet and includes public hiking trails offering views of a river valley and the Berkshires highlands and Catskill Mountains.
