I am very happy for the Armenians that they have survived those hard times in war to create a free country. I hope their country will strive and experience great times in the future.

I hope you Americans can recognize that they are chanting your countries name as a thank you tribute in saving endless lives and providing a chance to live in peace again.

War is horrible and genocide is worse! If you have not experienced it then you can only imagine what it could be like. If you have experienced it then you will know exactly the consequences of it and understand it shouldn't be tolerated anywhere in the world!

May the Armenian children grow up to know their history and learn to not repeat such atrocities (that were done to them) that still are practiced in certain parts of the world.

May there be peace and may we practice it each and everyday.

Like I said, {ref:#2}people lie about their sex lives if they are having sex with someone they shouldn't be having sex with.
I disagree with you whole-heartedly on the pastor/president moral issue.
{ref:#3} This is kind of a good-ol'-boys attitude

People dont lie JUST because they shouldnt be doing it but also because fear of circumstances from others who think they shouldnt be doing it. Many interracial couples kept their relationships secret because or the potential backlash, not because they believed they were doing something wrong.

We can agree to disagree about holding a politician to the same standard as a pastor but I dont believe my pastor would condone sending innocent kids to wars to kill each other like presidents are often called upon to condone. Different jobs, different standards.


Its not good ole boys to state the truth. Perhaps I should have said people instead of men. But people for centuries have chosen all types of sexual lives and still been able to lead and guide and be successful in their positions and careers. Sex lives are personal and separate from work ( at least I hope they are).

Is that fact or opinion? Sometimes when people are losing a debate they go for the juggler, "Mind your business!" "Pres can do what he wants."

Debate long enough with a liberal and the race card and the "for the kids" thing comes up. That's when I fold up for the night.

I can't keep quiet any longer. Peledac usually says it all for me but I have to jump in here. How liberal can some of you be?? How about if your pastor/priest/minister/rabbi did the same thing with the organist(no pun intended, well maybe)? Are you going to say, "It's his business. We all lie about our sex lives." By the way, why would someone lie about their sex lives unless they are doing something with someone they shouldn't? When I'm paying taxes and relying on my president to run this country I want to feel assured that he isn't dangling his junk under the Oval Office desk for some nit-wit intern to get rug burns on her knees while servicing him.

Thank you smiles,,,,,

Thank you Kat! Apparently some just don't care that he is supposed to be held at higher standards. It doesn't seem to bother some of them that morality is an issue here. That's what is wrong with our Country. Well it's like beating a dead horse in here, so I'll leave the clinton lovers with this.

He was the President of the United States of America. He was supposed to set precedence and perform in a decent manner, not performing oral sex in the White House!

Mirror, you love saying sharia law, say it enough and you'll believe it That seems to be about your only answer toward conservatives. Way ta go

The Armenians have had a really harsh history.

They also experienced genocide by the Turkish government. Even though the Turkish government still denies these atrocities, the rest of the world remembers. A terrible part of history and one of the biggest genocides at the time.

In the end the Armenians finally have a country of their own and hopefully they can be left alone to live in peace with its neighboring allies.

I agreeBut most Americans don't even know where Armenia is at Smiless.

Presidents have had slaves and mistresses since our founding, yet we celebrate their PRESIDENTIAL accomplishments just the same. It isnt that morals dont matter its that they dont have the PRIORITY in determing how well someone has accomplished their job.

You are absolutely right!!
Look at one's profile pic throwing in hate. Clearly shows something, we're either haters or racists.

SMILESS>>>> you werent off topic, the original post was about the armenians celebration,,,tell us more,,, are you armenian?

Smiless has lived in several countries as far as I know

No I am German actually, yet I have a degree in history from Germany and speak alot of languages fluently. I also spent half of my life as a Red Cross Coordinator travelling to alot of countries helping those who are not so fortunate in life. So having seen some of these countries struggles gave me a better idea of what the people endured.

I believe we tend to forget that the Armenians care less of what Bill Clinton's affairs where. They care more about how they can have a country of their own and freedom. They have Clinton and its bipartisan Congress to thank. Afterall they voted to help fight off the genocide at the time.

Sometimes I think America has had freedom for such a long time that I feel many have forgotten what it took to get such freedom. In otherwords, many take it for granted. Armenia is just starting to enjoy their economy and government.

I use to give out food, first aid, blankets, and stuffed animals all over Yugoslavia at the time. So I have seen poverty, hunger, distress, and many war inflicted citizens.



I am happy for them.
