YEREVAN, Armenia (AP) — Authorities in Armenia registered the
Jehovah’s Witnesses on Wednesday, allowing the religious group to
operate in the Caucasus nation after years of debate and denial.
Legalizing the Jehovah’s Witnesses was one of the main conditions
set out by the Council of Europe when it granted Armenia membership
two years ago.

“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
