Special for the Armenian Weekly
When the events in Syria unfolded last year, Ani was the first person I thought of. We met over a decade ago when our children were in Montessori school together. She and her husband were active members of the Boy Scout troop in our area. They helped teach my son how to properly fold and retire the American flag, as well as the importance of serving one’s community. This is a couple that takes their American citizenship and civic duty seriously. Her son Michael is a straight-A student who plays on his high school football team and recently earned his Eagle Scout badge. He’s a great role model for my own sons, who are significantly younger.

I came out of Lebanon in 1975 and immigrated into Canada in 1976. The civil war was raging and just like in Syria’s case, everybody was wondering what was the reason for all that. I agree with Mack and the human greed theory. If oil dries up those families will find something else to create fight for. Fighting is what sells arms and selling arms means money in the bank.
“Greed,” she says. “This is about man and his folly.”
And that, I believe, sums up 99% of the problems in the Middle East in particular, and the world generally.
