  1. Basically all teenagers.

    With the outflow of people from Armenia, the absolutely disgraceful selective abortions due to the unborn’s having an “undesirable” gender, and the low birthrate, where will Armenia’s forces find recruits?

    Why the Diaspora, of course.

    In other words, on the one hand, Armenia’s corrupt leaders (or shall we call them trai***s?) keep the Western Armenian Diaspora at arms length because these leaders are either clueless or don’t want Diasporans finding out the true depths of Armenian authorities’ depravity.

    On the other hand, these same leaders, who have stolen billions from the Armenian people and placed it in bank accounts and mansions in L.A., would like to someday use Diasporan recruits as cannon fodder.

    How long will the Diaspora and its organizations remain virtually silent about treason?

    1. Tone it down there, Dave. This was an isolated incident as the result of what appears to be negligence on behalf of the soldiers. Tragic as this is, it could have been avoided had they been more careful while handling such dangerous equipment.

      My condolences to the families of the deceased. This is sad news indeed.
