      I heard that a bunch of cowardly Armerican Armenian tourists cancelled their June trip to Cilicia because it was "near" the Syrian border.

          As a tourist and a Christian your a big target and if you are taking family with you then you put them in unnecessary risk.....now if you would have criticized the level of Armenian volunteers going to Syria I might agree with you.

              You'd be that scummy cowardly dog that decided it wanted to kill something small for its amusement (the something being a 4 year old boy playing on his bike). Then it ran off, its tail between its legs, when faced with real bravery.

                Nah that is what your friend ISIS is for. Nobody fights me because most people are not idiots and fear pain plus im a easy going guy. I have faced real bravery so i have no need to prove anything to anyone but you on the other hand have a long history of dodging questions, talking down to and insulting Armenians, lying,...anyways here is a great example of what you and your friends stand for and just how cowardly you both are

                ISIS EXPANDS CONTROL, BEGINS PERSECUTING CHRISTIANS IN MOSUL

                Assyrian International News Agency AINA
                June 12 2014

                Posted 2014-06-12 06:13 GMT

                An ISIS flag hangs from a bridge in Mosul. On the left it says
                "Nineveh Governorate welcomes you" and on the right it says "There
                is no God but Allah."(AINA) -- The Islamic State of Iraq and Syria
                (ISIS, also known as Da'ash and ISIL) yesterday took control of Mosul,
                Iraq's second largest city. Various agencies are reporting that
                between 150,000 to 500,000 residents have fled Mosul. Two divisions
                of the the Iraqi army which were stationed in Mosul abandoned their
                posts and fled, offering no resistance to the invasion. According to
                reports, the army personnel donned civilian clothing and left Mosul
                by blending in with the fleeing residents. Some reports say the Iraqi
                commanders in Mosul said they were given orders not to fight but to
                flee, but this has not been confirmed.

                AINA contacted a former member of the Iraqi Parliament, whose identity
                cannot be revealed for his safety, who said "The Mosul provincial
                government was in collusion with ISIS. The innocent citizens of
                Mosul are paying the price of the manipulations of Atheel and Osama
                al-Nujaifi."

                Atheel al-Nujaifi is the current governor of the Nineveh Governorate
                and is a hard-line Sunni. It is reported that he fled Mosul ahead of
                the ISIS attack.

                Today the city of Tikrit, a Sunni stronghold, also fell to ISIS. A
                source from Tikrit, which AINA contacted via email, said "We are now
                calling on all international organizations for help because we are
                terrified by what we are hearing from the street. I wish you could
                convey our voices to those who can help to end the farce. The people
                are currently in the hands of a conspiracy between the government and
                the militias." She added "In Tikrit today, the prisons were opened
                and looting and pillaging began."

                Unconfirmed photo of a church in Mosul set on fire by ISIS.

                According to reports from Mosul, ISIS has gone on a rampage, looting
                and burning government buildings, raising its black flag throughout
                the city and burning churches. According to an AFP report, it stormed
                the Turkish consulate yesterday and kidnapped 48 people including
                the head of the diplomatic mission.

                World Watch Monitor reported that ISIS have moved into Christian areas
                near Mosul, and have occupied the Assyrian (also known as Chaldean
                and Syriac) village of Qaraqosh and entered the St. Behnam Monastery.

                ISIS has warned the Christian residents of Mosul, specifically women,
                to wear the Islamic veil. The warnings have come at checkpoints setup
                throughout the city by ISIS. The husband of an Assyrian woman was
                abducted at a checkpoint and threatened with death if his wife did
                not don the Islamic veil.

                ISIS members bombed an Armenian church which was under construction
                in the Left Bank neighborhood, near al-Salaam hospital.

                The Church of the Holy Spirit was looted by ISIS members, who removed
                most of its electrical equipment.

                Patriarch Sako of the Chaldean Church issued a statement to Fides,
                saying "We believe that the best solution to all these problems is
                the creation of a government of national unity in order to strengthen
                the control of the State and the rule of law in order to protect the
                Country, its citizens and their property and preserve national unity."

                  Updated map of the Battle of Aleppo. Huge advances for the Syrian Army in the east. The entire area north and south of the airport (in the east) was controlled by rebels for a year. The Armenian district is called Midan and it's near the middle. You can see why we're always the target of indiscriminate rebel shelling, we're on the front line.

                  The strategy pursued by the SAA seems to be to encircle the strip of rebel neighbourhoods and lay a siege.

                      Three years on, the Syria spillover has triggered a full-blown eruption in neighbouring Iraq, with Sunni radicals carving out vast swathes of territory. The whole of what was exactly one century ago…

                      Politics is not about the pursuit of morality nor what's right or wrong
                      Its about self interest at personal and national level often at odds with the above.
                      Great politicians pursue the National interest and small politicians personal interests
