    There is a type of reader
    (and I have my share of them)
    who is programmed to disagree and reject
    anything that is not recycled propaganda.
    Such a reader doesn’t even bother or begin
    to understand what’s being said.
    He just hangs a label on you
    and forever after identifies you
    as the lowest form of animal life –
    namely, an Armenian
    who doesn’t love all Armenians
    and hate all Turks.
    Such a reader is convinced
    anyone who has more power or money
    must know better.
    He is Bolshevik in his pragmatism,
    capitalist in his value system,
    and Catholic in his dogmatism.

    Our infatuation with our celebrities is such that
    we would brag even about Cain and Judas
    had they been of Armenian descent.

      MUSIC
      ****************
      When about a month ago I suggested
      the world would have been a better place
      without Elvis and the Beatles,
      only three readers agreed with me.
      The rest (several dozen) told me
      in no uncertain terms to f*** off.
      And they say music ennobles.
      But then, if it failed to ennoble the Germans,
      why should it ennoble the rest of us?

        Every Armenian should carry a sign with the warning: "Contradict me and make an enemy for life!"

          NOTES / COMMENTS
          **********************************
          Armenians from the Middle East and I
          speak a different language
          even when we speak Armenian.
          We are incomprehensible to each other
          especially when we understand each other.
          A paradox?
          Armenian life is full of them.

          Nothing is as I imagined it to be.
          Imagination is a misleading faculty.
          Sometimes it can even be a deadly trap.
          *
          To explain and to justify
          are not synonymous words.
          *
          Like the moon we have a dark side
          clearly visible to others,
          invisible to ourselves.
          *
          As a rule, enemies of the state
          are friends of the people.

            It is not easy convincing barbarians that they are barbarians.

              Recycling propaganda is not just repeating hearsay evidence but parroting perjury.

                  In a world where everyone is proud
                  to be a Turk, Kurd, Jew, or Armenian
                  I prefer to be a humble human being
                  if only because humility is a virtue
                  and pride leads to arrogance.

                    A reader writes:
                    “The only thing I know about Armenian history
                    is that once upon a time we were a great nation
                    and God was on our side.”
