Astarjian: A Quadruple Historic Bypass

February 2, 2015 Dr. Henry Astarjian 8

Special for the Armenian Weekly Major occurrences have studded the globe and civilizations— events, some good (such as the three monotheistic religions, though some argue to the contrary), and some evil (like the Great Flood […]

Astarjian: Hypocrisy or Ineptitude?

September 28, 2013 Dr. Henry Astarjian 19

Like a drunken sailor, the Armenian nation—with its motherland and diaspora—continues to drag itself through mud into oblivion, pretending that things are all right. It’s time for jubilation. The motherland, basking in corruption and crime, […]

Astarjian: Our Muslim Brothers

June 24, 2011 Dr. Henry Astarjian 398

Astarjian: National Inventory and a Roadmap

February 23, 2011 Dr. Henry Astarjian 10

At the cost of saying I said so, I reiterate my belief that we Armenians, individually and as a nation, are on the wrong track politically, strategically, and tactically to reaching our national goals. We […]

Astarjian: Tales of Winter (Part II)

January 19, 2011 Dr. Henry Astarjian 4

I had to stay home. A Nor-Easter had paralyzed Boston except for emergency services; the governor had ordered it so. Billy had plowed some 14 inches of snow from my driveway only an hour before, […]
