kilmj Posted October 15, 2006 Report Share Posted October 15, 2006 For us (Armenians) what is the difference of being massacred or being assimilated? What is the difference when nation is being massacred or being assimilated? I think the second one is worst. What is your opinion in this issue? Studies showed that during the history 7 time more Armenian people completely lost their identity & disappeared as Armenians through assimilation than they been killed during all the wars & genocides combined. What percentage of 7 million Armenians living abroad will stay Armenian (I mean real Armenian, not just the names) in next 25, 50 or 100 years? I think we are loosing the biggest war in our history without a battle by living in other countries. Me, personally, after 15 years living in the USA (Los Angeles) even by having a good carrier, job, own house, decided & acutely moving back to Armenia (my wife & 3 kids already went there last month & I am leaving in a few days). I do not want to be a cause of the END (disappearance) of my generation ( blood) & its identity. Good luck for others. Good Bless Armenia. (I am trying to create a website (www.WelcomeToArmenia.com) to help & to guide those who want to Visit or to Move to Armenia.) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Artsrun Posted October 16, 2006 Report Share Posted October 16, 2006 There is indeed absolutely no difference between them in their badness for a nation. The difference is in the unequal perception by a normal human. The slinking assimilation doesn't seem as dangerous as physical annihilation. That's what objektivly makes the assimilation even worse. I wish you with my entire heart Good Luck going Home. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
