Kurds are enemy or friend?

Re: Kurds are enemy or friend?

No one is advocating blind trust here. I do not however like it when people use racial overtones to justify hate. Common sence is always a good strategy and i speak from personal experience when i say the kurds in Armenia today are more armenian then kurd. They speak our languadge follow our customs and even have changed religions. In many ways they are more armenian then kurd and are useful members of armenian society.

Why is it that we have to chose between friend or foe? Would it not be better for us to use them. I think it's time to forget the term friend when talking about any other nation. We are here alone and we don't have friends. (no nation does every nations has it's own agenda) Right now we need to use the Kurd to weaken our true enemy and later we will see what will happen.

I agree. world is not black and white especially when it comes to Kurds. Like how superpowers use us, we should us the Kurds for our benefit, really why should we care about them? Our relations with other countries should solely benefit us.

I also agree with the above. Like the whole world uses us and every country in this world has their agenda. We should also look after Number One "Numero Uno" which is us Armenia and Armenians. After all, which country in this world sympathized and looked after us when we were to be extinct thanks to the Turks? Nobody. No one will lend a hand to you except you, your own hands and your own people. Whenever we consider anything at all, we must see to it that what's in it for me? Meaning, what's in it for Armenia's favor and Armenians. Our own, our own agenda. This should be our motto!!!!

We should make use of the Diaspora for Armenia's sake. How can we work through governments in the Diaspora, every Armenian counts. Make use of your profession; whether you are a scientist, a doctor, a computer man or a politician. Work towards making use of your professions for the benefit of Armenia and the people in it. Within or without Armenia, we should all work together for the goal of making Armenia to prosper, economically and socially. To have a good standing within the nations of the world, and towards her prosperity. This should be our goal, this should be our main cause; for the survival and for the prosperity of our nation. After all, we waited for our freedom for sooooo long.

Re: Kurds are enemy or friend?

I know Kurds and I know Muslims very well from Lebanon, they are friendly and nice to us only when they are week and afraid, the minute they get a knife or a gun in their hands they will try to kill us (Christians), it happened long time ago in turkey, not so long ago in Lebanon and in Syria and it’s still happening in Iraq. I wouldn’t turn my back to them because they will stab us if they can. I’m not just releasing hot air, I’m talking this out of experience.

Re: Kurds are enemy or friend?

Yetards is correct...and to drive the point home, I can tell you that the Assyrian (Christian) population of northern Iraq is deathly afraid of the Kurds.
I know this from first-hand experience when I did a tour in Baghdad as I approached by Assyrian leadership who related their fear that once the US leaves, they would be massacred by the Kurds.
Remember, this is the present - modern times. It seems the Genocidal tendencies have not changed among Kurds.

With that said, Armenia should only interact with the Kurds based on national interests...trust should never enter the equation.

Nice to see you back here, I hope you post more often enker jan!

I appriciate your points! Good advice to be used. Supporting just those: our interests coincide with, at the point of time.
In our world most of countries had been in the state of war in past, but now part of them are in good relations with each other, because of current common interests.
