Christians Have Been and Still Builders of Syria's CivilizationBy Mazen EyonPresident Al-Assad: Christians Have Been and Still Builders of Syria's CivilizationDamascus -- President Bashar al-Assad affirmed on Thursday that Christians in Syria have never been "strangers" in this land, but they have been and still the builders of its civilization and bearers of its human and civilizational message to the whole world side by side with their Muslim brothers.The president participated in an open dialogue session for the catholic Syriac Syrian youth in their camp titled "My hope is in you" that started on Tuesday at St. Tuma Monastery in Sidnaya."The Christian originality in Syria is necessary to boost moderation and enrich diversity... Christians throughout history have contributed, through their stances and patriotism, to foiling projects of partition in the region and they have sent a message to enemies of Syria and sponsors of terrorism that all their colonial projects are doomed to failure," President al-Assad said.Read more at: http://aina.org/news/20190705204545.htm

Well at least he's trying.Syria originated around 10,000 BC.Start w/the Phoenicians, then the Israelite's, next the Greeks followed by the Romans.The Muslims added nothing, just like everywhere else they went!!!!!
Baloney, once again. Who invented algebra? Hint: it wasn’t the ancient Greeks.
Babylon. The word "Algebra" derives from the people you are trying to give credit to, but it had existed a long time before that.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_algebra#Babylon
-----------------------------------------Cyber, well done as you beat me to the punch.Algebra has many Fathers, starting w/the Babylonians in 1700 BC, followed by the Greeks of the 3rd century, then the Indians of the 7th century. Yet most importantly were Frenchmen Descartes and Viete' in the 17th century.An anecdote. Cipher in Arabic means zero.!!! Cheers!
