"I was confused by their (Armenian Americans) hatred for the Turks"

Taspar:

...
I just want to add something about Armenian Americans. After meeting a few of them, I was confused by their hatred for the Turks. It was like standing in front of an open pizza oven so to speak. After talking to a half Armenian half Israeli girl, I saw that Orthodox Church and especially the Hatred against the Turks are binding power for the American Armenian community. This is especially encouraged by the community elders. They don't care about Armenia or denial or acknowledgment of genocide by the Turkish government. It government acknowledged it they would want compensation. If given compensation they would ask for annexation or some other absurd thing. I would like to say this was my personal observation and though I'm hesitant to include whole community I'm afraid that I'm right about it.

Sorry for the long post...

Cheers,
