The Resurrection
I have experienced the cold darkness of the cyberian abyss and lived.
{looking solemn yet confident, Armenian ascends upon the forum's podium to addressed the multitude that have gathered to hear him speak}
I have seen firsthand the dark and ugly face of utter evil, but I persevered. I have experienced firsthand the vile works of Satan and his earthbound minions, but I have overcome. I have stared death in the face, but I have life. It is said, all the darkness in the universe cannot extinguish the light emanating from a single candle. By the grace of our great forefathers, by the grace of divine fortitude, and by the grace of anonymous justice, I have resurrected yet again from the darkness of the abyss. I am the resurrection. Take note my fellow brothers and sisters, by my free will I have martyred myself for you. I have martyred myself for you to give you life, to give you hope for your future as Armenians.
My fellow compatriots, today we became the light that overcame darkness...
{applause}
What some of you did in my name humbled me. Your valiant efforts went beyond what I could ever expect, and perhaps beyond what I truly deserved. I thank you all from the depths of my heart. Who says we Armenians don’t stick together? Who says this great and noble nation does not have great and noble individuals? Rest assured my fellow comrades, any time, anyplace, I would, without hesitation, go to my virtual death for each and every one of you. I hope you all realized that the crisis here was not about me being a combative member. This ordeal was about truth, justice and the Armenian way.
If my fault was retaliation against open hostility and utter evil - then let-me-be-guilty!!!
{applause}
If my fault was defending our nation's honor - then let-me-be-guilty!!!
{standing ovation}
You, my fellow compatriots, yes you are proof that the sacred light of truth and justice has valiantly overcome the darkness of lies and deception. In short, what happened here was an epic battle that was waged between good and evil. And by the grace of the almighty, the good has defeated the evil...
{applause}
Needless to say, I am grateful for your selfless and valiant support. I embrace and kiss each and every one of you. I extend my hand to you in complete admiration. I have great respect for all you brave warriors, all you heroes and heroines, all of you who mobilized in my support to protect my reputation as an Armenian and as a humanbeing. I want to personally thank each and everyone of you.
All you Armos make me proud to be an "Armenian" - no pun intend!!!
{applause and laughter}
All you other Armos here that were either too afraid, too confused or simply too careless to make a stand, I simply wish you all well. However, just realize that you need to reassess your priorities as Armenians. You need to feel the burden that comes with the knowledge that you are the off-springs of great and heroic forefathers. You need to feel the burden that comes with the knowledge that you are expected to keep the chain of our national heritage unbroken, a chain that is over four thousand years old. You, my fellow compatriots, are the very links of that glorious and yet unbroken chain. If you don't respect your heritage, if you don't have pride in your nation, if you don't concern yourselves with the future of our homeland - then don’t expect us to ever fully respect you as Armenians or as humans.
Thank you!
