Now look, I have nothing against Armenians. If we have a nation, they'll always be our allies. They're also generally good people and we tend to be friends with them, But we seem to have a strong adoration and affinity for them. I mean I get it, we have intermixed with them and we both belong to an orthodox rite. And that's pretty much it.
Do they, as a nation, even care about us? Assyrians moan and complain about Israel deserting us, but then the Armenians have done nothing much to aid us in our plight. Sure, they recognize our genocide (and they ought to, really), but what have they actually done to us?
Above all things, I noticed a trend among half Assyrian/Armenians who disregard their Assyrian ancestry. First Andre Agassi and now the democrat Anna Eshoo. The Assyrians on Facebook, as usual, are blaming the Jews ("Jews have brainwashed her") for Anna's controversial statements when she didn't mention us. But they're so na?ve. Maybe these type of Armenians are taught to reject their other ethnicity in the name of Armenian patriotism? Or maybe they're taught to be ashamed of having the Assyrian ethnicity in them?
