Here he comes to save the day!
My wife is Armenian.
I dont know if you know this but Armenians were the first Christian nation on the planet. They come from the same part of the world as Muslim terrorist, but they are not Muslim, their Christians. Many have changed there name to a Muslim name to avoid being killed!! No kidding!! They are deathly afraid of Muslims and for good reason having so many centuries of persicution and slaughter.
I have gone to several wedings and a funeral. Lots and lots of family. Last night I went to a wedding with 300 Armenians. Dancing, food, a really good time.
My opinion of Armenian Americans, knowing and having talked to so many of them, is they LOVE AMERICA!! They KNOW this is the best place to live on this planet and they are happy to be here and participate in the American way of life.
So here is what I had to share-
Last night I met a cousin of my wife and spent some time talking to him. He travels all over the world in his line of work. Often to Muslim parts of the world. He moves around them cautiously and doesnt make waves with his Armenian/Christian heritage and beliefs.
He said when President Bush comes up on TV, they (the Muslims)stand up and the room gets quiet! They listen very closely.
He (the wifes cousin) said to one of them " Bush is a scary guy!" The Muslim answered " NO!! He is scared of nothing!!"
The cousin went on to tell me that he voted for Bush, twice, and is sorry mistakes were made but is thankfull that someone finally stood up to them.
I found this to be an interesting little window into a world that I do not know much about.
