As it is known, there have always been Â"rightÂ" and Â"wrongÂ" Jews
in Russia.

For instance, L. Kaganovich was a Â"rightÂ" Jew, but V. Meierhold was
a Â"wrongÂ" one. Their oligarchs are distinguished just in the same
way. Abramovich and Khohodorkovsky have equally robbed the soviet
property, they have avoided of taxes etc., but now one of them is a
governor, another is a prisoner.

Difference between them is a great: one of them is loyal to the
authority, another isn’t.

As we always follow Russia, we also have the same customs. For example
there are Â"rightÂ" and Â"wrongÂ" deserters in Armenia. Thousands of
people avoid of military service in Armenia but the law enforcement
agencies take bribes and don’t disturb them. But if you are the
editor-in-chief of an oppositionist newspaper and the same law
enforcement agencies are ordered by the ruling clique to examine you,
it is impossible to take a bribe.

The most interesting thing is that when the "right" person becomes a
"wrong" one in a moment. Who was Artashes Tumanian till the latest
events. A famous politician, one of the bases of independent
Armenia. But, unfortunately, that person decided to form a party
without the president’s approval. In some days he was accused
of wasting money of "Lins" foundation and owing some profitable
business. Till the attempt of forming a party law enforcement officials
thought that Mr. Tumanian lives on his salary. This example warned
the prosecutor to freeze the process of forming a party.

Now the same happens to "Orinats Erkir". OEP was a "constructive",
" pro-authority" power till the latest period, a full member of the
coalition, which leads the country to the prosperity. And finally
it became clear that it was a group of enemies of the state, fifth
column of the U.S. or French imperialism. The coalition colleagues
found out that the OEP members don’t even have a right to sweep the
corridors of the Parliament, and Arthur Baghdasarian’s formed French
University and the European Regional Academy cost nothing.

Bolshevism /"who isn’t with us, he is against us"/ prevents the
formation of state tradition. Tomorrow other Bolsheviks will come
and will criticize nowadays authority.

“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
