called on the President of Armenia and National Assembly to desist
from sending any kind of squads to Iraq, Armenian Mirror Spectator
informs in October 9 article.

“Armenian establishments will become targets terrorist attacks”,
archbishop explains. “We fear that they will attack our churches,
kidnap our children”, clergyman Narek Ishkhanian says.

“We read in the newspapers that Armenian government sends not a squad
but a group of deminers, doctors and drivers, but that’s all the same
for the Arabs who say that friendly Armenia is joining the occupants”,

their national schools for foreign ones to avoid possible attacks in
