ARMENIAN PEOPLE HAVE LEARNED TO TAKE OFFICIAL STATEMENTS SCEPTICALLY
The police press service has spread a statement in a bid to justify the
night brutality against unarmed people saying the demonstrators have
paralyzed traffic by clogging Baghramyan Avenue.
The demonstrators threw stones and bottles with explosives at the police and
their actions grew aggressive and posed threat to people lives: that’s why
the law enforcement officers were reluctant to resort to force, the official
statement says.

“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
