Jag skrev tidigare om ett par tveksamma forskare som lanserade eller rättare sagt upprepade en teori som i allra högsta grad är tveksam. Teorin heter:
"Southwest-Iranian origin theory" och är enbart baserad på lingvistik (språk). Den huvudsakliga budskapet och slutsatsen är här att kurder iprincip är perser. Personen här nedan som hävdat denna teori är själv uppväxt i Tehran samt armenier. Det är svårt att frånse att det finns en bakomliggande agenda med den här forskningen och det är nämligen assimilering. Kurder är iranier och därför så ska dom inte vilja separera sig.

Southwest-Iranian origin theory: Based on language simi-larities between Persian, Balochi and Kurdish in “Middle Ira-nian” (ca. 4th century BC to 9th century AD), and out of claims, that therefore, 1) Persian, Balochi, and Kurds, must also be of closely related ethnic origin, presumably from Southwest of what is Iran of today, and that 2) hence, Kurds must have a linguistic and ethnic origin in the Southwest of Iran. This dis-puted theory has been repeated recently 2009 in an analysis, pillowed mainly on linguistic hypotheses, by Teheran born (*1953) Armenian Garnik Asatrian, who moved to Yerevan in 1968. Against cited decisive objections by international leading Iranologist Gernot Windfuhr (“there is no evidence that there was at any time […] a wide-spread Kurdish-speaking area near Fars”) Garnik Asatrian maintained 2009: “Kurdish […] has been shaped in a South-Western environment […]; the most probable option for an ethnic territory of the speakers of Kurd-ish remains the northern areas of Fars in Iran” (source: Iran and the Caucasus 13 [Brill: Leiden, 2009] 1-58, 38).
Dock så är det lugnt för inom forskning så går det inte att komma undan med felaktigheter. Här nedan så motbevisar Gernot Windfuhr den armeniska forskaren Garnik Asatrian. Hans teori är omöjlig eftersom det finns en genetisk skillnad mellan dom indo-europeisk talande grupperna. Kurderna pratar kurdiska (ett eget språk) och utöver det så har dom mer genetiska likheter med kaukasierna än perserna. Med andra ord Astarian är ute och cyklar. Kurder är kurder och perser är perser.
Citat:
A few years later, Gernot Windfuhr, leading Ira- nologist of our time, Prof. Emeritus at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor, USA, discussed in an article of 2006 the exceptional DNA po-sition of speakers of the “Kurdish Complex” as they were ex-plained by LL Cavalli-Sforza et al. Windfuhr sees “the most striking result”, “regarding the Iranian-speaking groups”, in the separation of Iranian-speakers into three genetically distinct clusters: “1) Kurdish and Caspian in the west; 2) Iranian (all others in Iran) in the Center; 3) Hazāra Tajik (Persian-speak- ers) and Pashtun (Pashto-speakers) in the east” (source cited: Hennerbichler [2011] 324-326). Kurds were presented by LL Cavalli-Sforza et al. (1994) as integral Near East (Eurasia) sub-stratum aborigines, speakers of a Northern Iranian language continuum, and genetically closer aligned to Caspian speakers in the West than to Iranian in the Center and in the East. Such a ground-breaking early inter-disciplinary origin-explanation at- tempt of Kurds was never published before 1994. It went far beyond traditional, conflicting origin-hypotheses, including geo- graphic ones, based predominantly on linguistic considerations, and aimed at a new integral understanding of people like Kurds, deep rooted in a wider multi-ethno-cultural substratum (north-west) Eurasian (West Asia) genesis, and distinct away from the Center and East of Iran, notably including the Southwest.
