Comments on: Wild and Crazy Guys http://www.blogrel.com/2005/08/31/wild-and-crazy-guys/ A blog about Armenia: business, politics, the future and good lavash Tue, 07 Oct 2008 01:00:17 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=1.5 by: Davit http://www.blogrel.com/2005/08/31/wild-and-crazy-guys/#comment-6971 Wed, 31 Aug 2005 21:27:20 -0700 http://www.blogrel.com/2005/08/31/wild-and-crazy-guys/#comment-6971 I wouldn't be surprised if it was true. Isn’t that what has been happening throughout the whole history of Armenia? Nakharar getting into power struggle, plotting and conspiring against each other... And we go on complaining that we don't have the great lands we used to have during Tigran the Great’s times. I think, the underlying problem is the greediness of the Armenians. We like to show off and impress others. We probably have the highest number of political parties per capita too. No one wants to compromise. Until and unless our leaders and the nation as a whole humbles themselves, it will be hard for the nation to come together. I wouldn’t be surprised if it was true.

I'm glad to hear that Vazgen Sargsian prevented the removal of arms from Armenia. I don't think Karabagh war could have been sustained after the Azeris migrated from hunting rifles to automatic rifles in 1991.

The Mayor's office reports that the Mayor went to the restaurant where about 80 drunken Russian soldiers were engaged in a brawl, and called the base commanders and city top law enforcement officials to calm the situation down.
