    In all organized religions, reason is a liability & credulity an asset.

    TURKISH PROPAGANDA
    *************************************
    In a Turkish discussion forum on Facebook
    I read the following (I quote from memory):
    “Armenian intellectuals were targeted ...

    ON THE POSITIVE SIDE...

    We don't need enemies;
    we have one another.
    *
    In our environment, subservience means
    not only kissing ass but also declaring publicly
    it smells like roses.
    *
    Not just 600 years of subservience
    but subservience to Turks:
    a noteworthy distinction.
    *
    If an Armenian among Armenians,
    you can survive without kissing ass,
    you deserve an entry in WHO'S WHO.
    *
    In a corrupt environment
    pimps outnumber xxxxxs.
    *
    If an Armenian is not after a benefactor's money
    he will be after a woman's ass.
    *
    We survived bodily, yes,
    but in every other respect
    we might as well be dead, buried,
    and rotten.

    A conservative estImate? 99.9%

    Whenever I run into an Armenian with a big ego,
    I develop a bigger ego.

    One of the most serious abnormalities inflicted
    on human beings is considering oneself normal and
    all others if not abnormal than slight
    deviations.

    **********************************
    ARMENIAN PECULIARITIES
    ***************************************
    Even if he knows nothing,
    an Armenian will assume to know better.
    *
    In the eyes of his fellow Armenians,
    all Armenians are second-class citizens.
    *
    The favorite line of Armenians from Istanbul:
    “There was a war on.
    Nobody knows who did what to whom.
    Let bygones be bygones."
    *
    Among themselves Turks may brag by saying
    “We taught Armenians a lesson they’ll never forget.”
    But we find it more convenient to say
    “Even if we know what happened,
    we will be better off to pretend otherwise.
    We have to live with the bastards.”
    *
    Truth is, Turks did not massacre Armenians.
    It was half-Turks who massacred half-Armenians.
    It was civil war. An affair between mongrels.”

    ON FLATTERY
    **********************
    Once is never enough.
    *
    It can be as addictive as opium.
    *
    Because I refused to kiss his ass, he said
    “Who the hell do you think you are?”
    *
    An offended Armenian can
    be as mean as a Turk
    with the memory of an elephant.

    Questions/Answers
    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Q: You speak of our problems but you don't provide solutions. Why?

    A: Solutions don't come in the shape of verbal formulas. Solutions demand hard work, struggle, sacrifice, planning, dedication, concerted action, and even more important, an awareness of the problem itself.


    Q: We all agree that divisions are a problem. How do we go about solving it?

    A: We don't all agree. I have heard many Armenians say that we owe our survival to our divisions or what I prefer to call our tribalism.

    Q: Suppose we succeed in convincing all Armenians that tribalism is a problem. Then what?

    A: The old saying, "Where there is a will, there is a way," applies here. History provides us with many models. All we have to do is choose: the way of the Kurds, Arabs, and gypsies, or the way of the Italians, the British, and the Americans. No nation ever achieved nationhood overnight. Even the Americans had to fight one of the bloodiest civil wars in the history of mankind.

    Q: In one of your books, you write: "Living among Armenians or even in their proximity can be hazardous to your health, unless you have the constitution of a horse, the skin of a crocodile, the strength of a water buffalo, and the aroma of a skunk." My question is: Why do you dislike your fellow Armenians?

    A: I don't. But I do loathe racists, fascists, and loud-mouth charlatans, and I refuse to view their Armenian identity as a mitigating factor. Ethnicity is not a form of insanity and it should not be used as an extenuating circumstance.

    Q: Why are you a cynic?

    A: I am not, but I may react as one when confronted with naive souls, who, very much like our activists at the turn of the last century in the Ottoman Empire, are convinced if they have God or Truth on their side, they have nothing to fear.
