While Anschütz, also writing before the US invasion of Iraq, still had positive expectations for the Christian presence there, her analysis of the situation in the Tur Abdin is less promising. Restrictions regarding the exercise of Syriac language instruction for children, the discrimination of young men from the Syriac-speaking Christian community in military service, and repeated acts of forced expropriations of real estate property of Christians, as well as the gentrification of the Syrian-Christian population in the homeland and a desire on the part of Christians in the Tur Abdin to join family members who have reached a status of financial security in the West are key reasons that continue to contribute to the depopulation of the Christian landscape in south-eastern Turkey and to draw people to move westward. This tendency only intensifies a behavior that already characterizes the life of those who have gone into the diaspora. They suffer from a sense of loss of their roots and identity and they compensate for this by placing all their hopes in the acquisition of material goods.
