    SITUATION / xxxxUATION
    *************************************
    Explaining Armenians to Armenians:
    a field in which every Armenian considers himself an expert.
    *
    Our benefactors operate on the assumption that
    the more money they sink into our communities
    the greater our chances of survival.
    *
    Gulbenkian was an exception.
    He was too big and too smart
    to be manipulated by small-time brown-nosers.
    He dedicated only a tiny fraction of his money
    to Armenians – probably in memory of his parents.
    *
    Our political parties think
    the only way to explain our problems
    is by recycling their particular brand of propaganda.
    *
    Our organizations like all organization
    don’t have a conscience.
    They are staffed by academics, fund-raisers
    and experts without a single drop of selfless service
    in their blood.
    *
    Our historians emphasize Turkish inhumanity
    and cover up Armenian incompetence.
    *
    Everyone has an ax to grind
    and their unspoken aim appears to be
    to chop off our heads.
    *
    Sooner or later our intellectuals give up
    for the obvious reason that
    there is no money in it.
    *
    The only reason I refuse to give up
    is the memory of far better men than myself
    like Abovian and Zarian who
    persevered to the bitter end.

    what about covering up Armenian indifference to the suffering of fellow Armenians?

      Man is a creature incapable of being objective about himself. I believe nothing an Armenian says about Armenians. The same applies to all tribes, nations, races. colors and creeds.*If we need solutions to our problems, it maybe because our 1% have so far failed to come up with any. *Like the rest of mankind, we are better at creating problems than at solving them. Rich in history, we are poor in ideas.* We say we are smart to cover-up the fact that we are idiots.#
