Vanetsi Posted July 3, 2007 Report Share Posted July 3, 2007 There's much to be said about the leadership of the Armenian Patriarch of Iraq. Simply put, he's amazing. Amidst a war, he still ordained a priest. Very recently, in fact. Surpazan Avak Asadourian is truly an admirable leader. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Error 404 Posted July 4, 2007 Report Share Posted July 4, 2007 I think they shoudl go home to Armenia. At least temporary. Whenever it will be safe in Iraq they can go back if they want too. Otherwise Armenia is their homeland and they can stay there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abass80 Posted July 5, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 5, 2007 It will not be safe in Iraq for a couple of decades! so they will either get used to life as it is (as they r doing now) or as some ppl suggest go to Armenia and start over (something which is not as easy as it sounds) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
