"CRIMINAL" IS THE PROBLEM

Politicians and political analysts often complain of criminalization
of the political field in connection with the latest "strengthening"
of Republican.

There is a reason for anxiety. We should simply make clear what they
mean saying Â"criminalÂ".

A person who has committed a crime and been punished may be called
a Â"criminalÂ". Head of the district of Davitashen Ruben Gevorgian
/Tsaghik Rubo/ is classical example who has committed a murder decades
before, has acknowledged his guilt and punished.

Those who have committed crimes but haven’t been punished are also
" criminals". For example, nowadays leaders of Dashnaktsutiun,
I’m deeply sure they have made their subordinates for terrorism and
murders during the previous authority. A part of killers are still
imprisoned but those who have ordered them are in free.

The word Â"CriminalÂ" will match those who commit crimes everyday
and aren’t punished for it. If not paying taxes is a crime,
nowadays businessmen are all criminals. More impudent of them beat
and engage in terror people themselves or with the help of their
guards. Consequently, they are double criminals.

But they activities would be impossible without tax and customs
services, police, prosecutor’s office, courts and the whole criminal
state system.

Consequently the word "criminal" is Utopism. Criminal is everywhere
in every possible and impossible areas. As it is spoken about
parliamentary elections, so we must try to put mental and civil
qualification for the pretenders of that work. So I ask all candidates
for the post of deputies to write a dictation on Armenian language
for 8-form pupils. If they get a satisfied mark, let them continue
the fight, if not, they should study.

The point isn’t that a person has a "Jeep". The point is that the
owner of that "Jeep" sends his son to school by three jeeps: one
is for the son, other two are for guards. Having millions he keeps
remaining an intruder. So we can reformulate the slogan in this way:
Â"Let’s not allow the entrance of intruders into parliamentÂ".
