Western or not, saying an eastern translated text was Tatian's Diatesseron when the evidence overwhelming proves that there was no way that this peshitta harmony could have ever Tatian's Diatesseron is unreasonable and biased, Paul.
Looks like Yuri was doing some diggin up on Arphrahat. Seems like he has some OS quotes mixed in also, just like Ephrem.
No matter what, this particular text is no "safe zone" like the peshitta may be, the evidence is too blatant Paul, and that evidence would not be discounted by anyone with a level head, scholar or not. It's common sense.
