Every day more and more civilians are dying in Lebanon, and now it’s not just the south but they even started targeting Beirut proper. How much longer will it take for the Armenian government to make a statement? To condemn Israel? Or to send aid to the people of Lebanon?

I understand we’re not the wealthiest nation, or the most powerful. I wasn’t born yesterday. But when our people were at their lowest, Lebanon welcomed us. Now it’s our turn to help them as they face the threat of genocide.

I don’t mean to point fingers or anything but it makes my heart sink as a Lebanese-Armenian to see both my homeland be destroyed again and again.

  1. Tbh we should have refugee programs for Lebanese Armenians fleeing from there. A lot of people I know can’t leave and come to Armenia due to financial reasons.

  2. There is a difference between the government stance, and the attitude of people. Even though the government itself is not in a good relationship with the Israel(and even recognized Palestine), making another condemnation statement will position ourselves in a hostile situation with them and US, which will weaken our situation even more. I believe after some action by other countries we will also act, in form humanitarian aid or etc.

  3. Your homeland is a refuge for a terrorist organization that’s a major security concern for Israel.

    however wondering if any Armenian neighborhoods were hit the answer is no. till now it is fairly safe here but things can go south real quick…

  5. Armenia should pick the least fight that it can lebanon is a nice country i will never forget how they waved the spanish flag after taking a village from the islamic state after the terrorist attack on Barcelona,but antagonizing israel dosen’t help armenia they have influence with the US and are able to supply baku with even more military tech wich could easily tip the balance even more on their side.

  6. Countries condemning atrocities doesnt help. If no one listen to the major world powers condemning these actions… why would anyone care if Armenia condemns Isreals actions??

    When countries with no world significance are being attacked, absolutely no one cares.

    ie: rwanda, somalia, darfur, armenia, palestine and more.

    This is really sad that as humans we cant get a long.

  7. I’m sure it made your « heart sink » just as much when you saw Hezbollah kill Druze children who were just playing soccer, right? Right…….?

    I’m sure if I go through your post History I’m gonna find a similar message asking to condemn the jihadists, right? Right……?

    Forget making statements, we should be ready to take in any Lebanese-Armenian who wishes to come here and provide protection to those who are in danger there
