The Assyrians were a cruel and heartless people, who thought nothing of burying their enemies alive, skinning them or impaling them on sharp poles alive. Assyria was the most greedy and bloodthirsty nation of the ancient world. They would wipe out entire villages - killing men, women, and children. They would decapitate their victims and pile their heads at the gate of the city to put fear in all that might think to oppose their power. Assyria had plundered and spoiled their enemies and systematically deported them to other regions. Eventually, the ten northern tribes of Israel would simply disappear into their jaws, never to be heard of again.
