'BONFIRE' MANIFESTATIONS OF NZHDEH FOLLOWERS
October 11 2013
As I have said many times, I did not like Ms. Postanjyan's "question"
to the President. It is clear that it was not a question, but an
accusation that the opposition MP wanted to accuse Serzh Sargsyan
to his face, and within household insight of common citizens, the
topic is pretty resonant, it perhaps worthy of applause by such a
mass. But, the function of an MP, politician, I see is in trying to
climb from the household level, and in her accusations, she speaks
about more principled, more systemic issues, the issues, which,
unlike the casino, are quite obvious and proofable. But, that,
of course, is a matter of taste: I may be wrong, and the primary
task of politicians and, why not, journalists, and commentators is
"slating". But, if there can be any discussion about the content of
the "question", Republican Party's response (on "Turkish" topics)
to Ms. Postanjyan does not fit into the framework of the political
debate. And, the member of the same party, head of "Armenian Eagles"
organization and (note) Deputy Minister of Youth and Sports Affairs
Khachik Asryan's interpretation is a pure criminal. Let me remind
you that the young man named the MP a "harvest mouse retired from
the Turkish field." I have already had occasion to write that the
"Turkish" lexicon of our political and public figures give evidence
concerning certain intellectual level, as well as absolutely not
perceiving the realities of the 21st century. But, the Deputy Minister
has gone further, saying, "Zaruhi Postanjyan should be burnt on the
bonfire alive, not as Jeanne d'Arc, but as Ramil Safarov." Burning
people on the fire as a punishment for this-or-that offense is not
in use for several centuries. Maybe these traditions are preserved
in cannibal tribes and in the African jungles, which are quite far
from the mountains of Syunik. But these tribes are not members of the
European People's Party, and as the Republican Party, they also do not
want to have a Depth and Comprehensive Trade with the EU, and do not
participate in the Bologna process. Even in the Customs Union and the
Eurasian Union, the morals were not so harsh. In the 20th century,
in Europe, yes, bonfires were burned. The German Nazis were doing
it. But, the latter were burning not people, but books (including
those of their great German writers and philosophers), so that people
will not get contaminated with dangerous ideas. Maybe though mediated,
Nzhdeh followers, these Nazi ideas have penetrated into the brain of
the Republican Deputy Minister. I'm not a specialist, but I tend to
believe that Mr. Asryan's words contain calls of violence and frontier
justice. But, of course, no one will pay any attention to it.
