Armenia: Protest Song
The Armenaker Kamilion comments on the video of a protest song written by a supporter of former president, Levon Ter-Petrossian, and available on YouTube.
It is a very heart-felt, clear-sighted, and honest, not to mention completely informed, criticism of Kocharian, Inc. He’s right about many things, but about this especially: that March 1st will never be forgotten. It is about the pain in the hearts of Armenians turning into intense anger, directed against the immediate perpetrators but, in the last instance, toward the ones who enabled those perpetrators. The last shot is of the globe: It blames international forces, ultimately. And he’s right. This is a global problem. And this is a very astute Armenian fusion protest song. I love it.
