The Crucial Issue
 

Ladies and Gentlemen,

There is a crucial issue that must be addressed.
Horst’s entire essay is based on the fact that his Sumak kilim was woven by “Nestorian” people.

It is not.

It’s a simple Herki Kurd soumak kilim. And so it was in 2006 (even if at the time Horst was already mulling over the Nestorian hypothesis). There isn’t a single shred of evidence to prove the contrary, in Horst’s essay. Fantasies aren’t factual proofs.

This simple fact makes the Salon fall apart like a house of playing cards during an earthquake of magnitude 9.

To quote the Bard (let’s appear to be sophisticated too)

…it is a tale
Told by an xxxxx (1), full of sound and fury (2),
Signifying nothing

Regards,

Filiberto
