As an Armenian nationalist, I am offended whenever I hear another Armenian repeat this defeatist turkish crap. We need to think very carefully before we talk (or type). The bullsiht notion that Armenia is allegedly not a "normal" country is poison that the turkish and azerbaijani press created in order to demoralize Armenian society and cause the Republic of Armenia to decay and collapse from within. According to the turkish garbage, Armenia is "not normal" because the hardliner natives of Armenia are fanatic and they insist on "occupying their supposedly peaceful, prosperous neighbor azerbaijan's territory (ie Artsakh) and they also make territorial claims against supposedly peaceful, democratic turkey (ie Western Armenia) and supposedly democratic, progressive georgia (ie Javakhk)". The turkish and azerbaijani press also claim that Armenia is not a "normal" nation because the hardliners in the Diaspora keep pushing for Genocide recognition, and this allegedly poisons relations between ankara and Yerevan as well as Ankara and Paris/Washington/Bern (Switzerland)/ect...Thus according to the evil turkish and azerbaijani liars, Armenia is not a "normal" nation because it chooses to defend Artsakh and pursue justice for the Armenian Genocide. Basically turkey and azerbaijan want Armenia to become demoralized so they can tear it apart and finish it off once and for all.
"This is not a common event"
The murder of any Armenian is very tragic. However, we need to look at this rationally instead of playing into the hands of Armenia's enemies. This was a case of murder. I'm going to assume "normal country" to you means America or one of the Western European nations. Do you have any idea how APPALLINGLY HIGH the murder rate is in the United States?? It's one of the highest in the developed world, both in absolute terms and per capita. Compared to these so-called "normal" countries, Armenia remains a relatively safe and peaceful place. Believe me, I'm an American and I can tell you we have violence and crime statistics in our cities that would make any normal person sick. One is statistically WAY MORE LIKELY to be murdered in an American city than in Armenia.
Again, the murder of an Armenian anywhere requires swift and tough justice, but let's not lose our grip on reality and start giving self-serving foreigners a tool to pressure Armenia with (ie I can imagine a US State Department Report on "Human Rights" stating "Armenia is not a democratic country, even your own citizens have to march in protest against the government. We can't allow a repressive government like Armenia to 'occupy azerbaijani territory'")
"his car would have blown up"
The criminals were arrested within days of this crime in Armenia. I'm thankful that Armenia isn't that backwards where murder is responded to with terrorism. If Armenians blow up any cars, it should be those Matadors and Marauders the warmongers across the border are bragging about.
"The state/nation most equivalent to us is Israel."
Not even close. They are a genocidal government arming the georgians and azerbaijanis to the teeth, much to Armenia's detriment. They have sold advanced weaponry to turkey as well. Their state was founded on land belonging to the Palestinians, who they forced out into the West Bank, Gaza and into a huge Diaspora. The israelis most closely resemble their brothers in ankara. Genetically and linguistically they are semetic, while we are Aryans of Eastern European and Iranic culture. Religiously they are judaic, which includes holidays like purim where there they celebrate the massacre of 75,000 goyim Persians by their ancestors in ancient times (complete with cookies called hamantaschen which represent the ears of the decapitated Persian King Haman). We, by contrast, are Orthodox Christians.
"Maybe in Russia"
I don't care how Russia (or any other country) runs its own business. As long as they maintain bases in Armenia, they turks will remain too terrified of the Russian Bear to even mildly threaten Armenia. Thank God our interests overlap with the Russian interests, because if the Russians ever left there is no chance in hell that the "normal" countries of NATO would lift a finger to halt the second Armenian Genocide.
"Could you imagine this happening in Israel, and the murderers go unpunished"
This might shock you, but even the mighty US Army actually has significantly more non-combat losses, rapes, suicides, violence, gangmembers and homeless and drug-addict veterans than tiny Armenia, in addition to the astronomical civilian crime rate. As for israel, they drop bombs on Palestinian civilians armed merely with rocks on a regular basis, God knows what they do that we aren't privy to. What they did to their own Mordechai Vanunu, a former israeli xxx who converted to Christianity, is on its own a crime against humanity. No point comparing Armenia to a pariah state like israel.
