Re: y are armenians so racist?
Yeah I only saw it recently. It really opens your eyes to the lives of the people, it shows that they are actual people, with actual loved ones, families, girlfriends, people with goals and dreams, regular ordinary people who are doubtful and are only driven to this last resort because of generations of humiliation and suffering and no end in sight. The speech Khalid gives in the car to the girl about why diplomacy, peace, and morality are pointless was very moving. It reminds me of something I read about Monte Melkonian in his biography. When his fellow Armenians in Berkeley told him he should go about resistance through peace, so Armenians look peaceful and moral to the world, he said something along the lines of "peace, morality, and justice mean nothing to the world, look what Israel has done, and nobody in the world dares to talk about it. The world only cares about power, money, and self interest. They dont care if you are right or wrong, they care about how much power you have, and how much you can do for them"
Also it does a solid job of remaining somewhat impartial. I have read somewhere that there was protests by some Palestinians for not making the acts of suicide bombers look absolutely heroic. I'll try to get the source for this.
