Don't know much about Byron as a person but anyone that takes an interest in the Armenian language like he did can't be that bad! Though whenever his name is mentioned, I immediately think of his daughter Ada, whom many consider to be the first computer programmer ... she was certainly quite special.

Why, because Armenian is a bad language? So, anyone who miraculously appreciates it must be so kind? You see how 'insecurity' works in a person's mentality. The 'enlightened' men and women at the time took interest in a variety of things, including jungle savages. So, don't take it personally...

Stop being silly, and don't believe the hype...

During a nine-month period in 1842–1843, Ada translated Italian mathematician Luigi Menabrea's memoir on Babbage's newest proposed machine, the Analytical Engine. With the article, she appended a set of notes which specified in complete detail a method for calculating Bernoulli numbers with the Engine, recognized by historians as the world's first computer program. Biographers debate the extent of her original contributions, with some holding that the programs were written by Babbage himself.

Can we please get off this Byron crap!

What "hype"? Is this yet another evil US Corporation CNN propaganda and/or zionist femenazis thing I wasn't aware of?

I don't know how many times it needs to be said that copying from wikipedia to dismiss something as "hype" is like using poop as window cleaner

Getting back on topic, according to two different 'sources' of mine the whining French-Armenian character named Armen is well known in the region in question (including by my sources) and is considered by the natives there (as well as by my sources) to be a trouble maker, a freeloader and very problematic. My sources stated that this character was a failure in France and decided to get adventurous and go to Artsakh - thinking that he would be a 'king' there. He attempted a few unsuccessful "business" endeavors. Apparently he also tried to get involved in politics - foolish. So, as I suspected, there is much more to this story. This whole situation has reminded me of how disgusted I get of most Armenians. Just go to Hetq Online and read the many comments posted under Armen's article. They are disgusting, to say the least.

One absolute lowlife called "George" had this to say:

The present government of both Artsakh and Armenia are plainly evil. One should have no dealings with them.

An idiot named "Sako" wrote:

The next time I am asked to donate to the Armenian Fund's Telethon I will raise all hell. I would urge all concerned to e-mail President Bako Sahakyan, the All-Armenian Fund, and other charitable organizations working in Karabakh and demand PROMPT ACTION and THE IMMEDIATE REMOVAL FORM OFFICE ALL ALL CORRUPT OFFICIALS INVOLVED!!!

A moron named "Hovagim" wrote:

Unfortunately, any country that has been in the communist system or under Russian influeance remains BACKWARD and 100% corrupt.

A stupid one called "micha":

What Armen should is to call on Diaspora Armenians to stop giving money to Karabakh Authorities. And the best thing to do during Karabakh's president next trip to Europe or USA is to put a decayed apple in his basket. This is the symbol of his rule. So instead of money he'll collect decayed fruits!!!! I can't believe this happening while so many people in Diaspora having hard time to collect money to help this dumbass bureaucrats. I think it's time to stop all funding on governement level.

And an absolute asshole named "Emil Hartoonian" writes:

Dear Armen, I am convinced that you will never get what you deserve, because the whole Armenian government in Armenia and Artsakh as well are completely corrupt, now they do not need ex- patriots like you or me, they are doing just fine washing dirty dollars, that has flooded Armenia and Artsakh, be a man look at your loss in the eyes spit on their degenerated Russian faces and leave, GO HOME. Levon Ter Petrossyan knows this bastards the best, why not write to him.

All this, just because a spoiled disgruntled jackass with a big chip on his shoulder wanted to cause trouble by posting a complaint letter. Nevertheless, this story has revealed many of our shortcomings as a nation: some diasporan Armenians do take advantage of the homeland; Armenians tend to have a lack of objectivity; Armenians tend to have a lack of a balanced perspective; Armenians tend to be ignorant of historical/political nuances; Armenians do not comprehend what true nationalism is; Armenians do to not comprehend the concept of a fatherland...

Does anyone now understand why I say most Armenians today are trash and why we desperately need a thorough 'cleansing' of our domestic garbage?

I happen to have met him before he left. He went there with truly patriotic feelings. If his feelings have changed then there is something really wrong going on there.

it seems as if you are more familiar with 'English' literature than with 'Armenian' literature.

It seems that you know very little about me which does not prevent you from making wild assumptions. This is not the first one in this thread.

And the inaccurate notion that the Armenian Republic has high corruption and/or no democracy also plays right into the hands of "foreign forces." So, what you claimed is a double edged blade. I suggest you be careful with your rhetoric. As a matter of fact, this is precisely the reason why so many western NGOs have been set up in former Soviet states, namely to meddle in the domestic affairs of these developing nations - naturally using the pretext of protecting "human rights", "democracy", "freedom of speech", etc...

As I predicted, as the elections in Armenia nears we will hear and see much more uglier developments. There are forces that want to topple the pro-Russian/pro-Iranian regime in Yerevan at all costs. And since these antagonists cannot use force against Armenia they will attempt to use the people's sentiments, the feelings of
the ignorant masses, against the ruling administrators.

There is absolutely no reason why the theme of corruption should be left to Soros&co sponsored opposition. This is in fact their main argument. Not addressing it allows them to prosper. Such a position cannot be justified politically speaking unless the regime is entirely corrupt itself. And if it is, it is acting against national interests, period.

Axel, I thought you were smarter than this...

Well no I am in fact much dumber than you may imagine.

I guess everyone agrees with that statement. The question is the definition of "domestic garbage".

I don't necessarily agree that most Armenians are "trash" though I do see your point about the tautological second part ("cleaning the trash"). It is somehow always easy to assume a "nationalistic" (non-trash?) attitude when one doesn't have to personally deal with poverty, hunger, fear, corruption, and the constant day-to-day struggle of just trying to survive.

When all or some of those other mundane factors rise their ugly heads, I don't think the emergence of the more egotistical responses can qualify as "trashy". It is fundamental human nature and it doesn't matter if one is Armenian, Hindu, or Eskimo.

Well it is precisely in adversity that you see what people are made of.

Re: "Harsh reality" (HR) or "Armenian National Interest"(ANI)???

So one should belittle one of the greatest writers in history because brits are essentially f*cking bastards? You don't really think this way, do you? You cannot possibly.

"...it seems as if you are more familiar with 'English' literature than with 'Armenian' literature. Hence, Amrotz's ire." It's a quote from Armenian's post. I chose it because I couldn't have said it better myself.

The "mongrel" thing I can't defend or explain. Perhaps Amrotz could explain himself better.

A race that is made up from Britons, Romans, Saxons, Danish, Norman, Flemish, French and to a lesser extent other European blood is mongrel, which is a term they all know very well and most of them even accept.

And the inaccurate notion that the Armenian Republic has high corruption and/or no democracy also plays right into the hands of "foreign forces." So, what you claimed is a double edged blade.

The thoughts expressed above are the reality, they are the truth.

Axel, (and others who think like him) if the enemies of our nation succeed then we all would suffer regardless of our political views. These multifaced and powerful enemies of ours are trying to makes us orphans by trying to destroy the most precious thing we have - our country, the Republic of Armenia.

And this you were able to gather from a one line quote out of Shakespeare that somehow found its way in one single post out of a hundred forty two.
It seems as if you are a genius.
My own limited intellectual means make me feel uneasy in such company. Allow me to retire.
