Shlama Akhi Distazio,
I am glad you enjoyed the article.
Although I don't understand your point. The Scripture says:
5 The king of Assyria invaded the entire land, marched against Samaria and laid siege to it for three years. 6 In the ninth year of Hoshea, the king of Assyria captured Samaria and deported the Israelites to Assyria. He settled them in Halah, in Gozan on the Habor River and in the towns of the Medes.
2 Kings 17:5-6
Where are these places? Assyrian? Most definitely. But the Persians conquered both Assyria and Babylon and absorbed them. These geographical areas though are still part of...
Nave's Topical Bible
Gozan [E] [H] [S]
(A district of Mesopotamia)
Israelites taken in captivity to, by the king of Assyria, after the conquest of Samaria
1 Chronicles 5:26; 2 Kings 17:6; 18:11; 19:12
Mesopotamia = Babylon.
So you see, there is no problem and I don't think "Christians" would disagree since there are many of them here and they know the need to check these things, correct?
