Not really. As rabizes say I'm not a real Armenian since I'm a barskahye. Let them Merso driving Rabiz brothers who stand around at donut and coffee shops go first. Also all the "Armenian Power" (for you guys that aren't from L.A., it's an Armenian gang in Hollywood) members could go back and fight!

Of course we have some good Hayastantsiz here also but they're few. Before coming to USA, when I was in Iran, I was always proud of being an Armenian and we always tried to stay together and keep our cultural values intact and remain Armenians, but after coming to Glendale and going to high school here and seeing how most of the hayastantsiz were treating other Armenians, I was shocked and extremely disappointed and developed this negative image of them in my head.

Also could you please tell me how does this have anything to do with Love and Romance? LOL

It really belongs here, but its an understandable mistake.

To answer your question: No, Id stay as far away as possible since I am opposed to violence/war (not to mention that I wouldnt last a day in the environment anyway). I also wouldnt want to see Armenians be killed when they dont have to be, and would not support anyone going there as noble as their reasons may be.

okay since this thread has to do with patriotism and loving your country, I'm posting this little article from A1plus here, I think it's beautiful:

COMMANDER ANDRANIK AS AN ETERNAL EXAMPLE OF PATRIOTISM

”Some years ago the book “Armenians in Turkey” by Tsatour Aghayan was published where the author told about his meetings in Turkey. There is an event in this book about Hakob Martayan, chief editor of the Turkish encyclopedia, whom Ataturk had called “dilachar”, that is – “key of to tongue”, while he himself had called Ataturk “Father if Turks”.

In a party where Greeks, Germans, Hakob Martayan and Turkish military leaders were present, Ataturk suggests that each of the present must sing his national song. The Greek refuses to sing in Greek saying that Turkish has become his mother tongue, he German sing in German, and when it comes to Hakob Martayan, he sings the song “Like an eagle you fly…” devoted to Andranik. The people gathered were looking at Ataturk waiting for one word to kill the Armenian, but Ataturk simply silences them saying, “I would like to see if you, Turks, would sing a song devoted to Ataturk while surrounded by Armenians”. This example was brought today by David Sargsyan, head of the National Library, in the celebration of the 140th birthday of Andranik. According to him, the Commander is a symbol of patriotism for our nation.

An exhibition devoted to the 140th birthday of Andranik was organized in the National Library today, where books, articles and photos about him were represented
