Thanks for the link and also your contribution to the blogosphere. Incidentally, regarding the issue of comments mentioned in my post, I had discovered a discussion thread by some ultra-nationalist Armenians a week ago and just re-read it. Anyway, it would appear that there was a coordinated campaign to bombard the comments sections of Armenia Now and Hetq Online with pro-Sargsyan statements:

There is an organized effort today to undermine and isolate the Armenian Republic upon the international stage. This concerted anti-Armenian effort is being run by Washington DC and the tools they are using are entities such as Armenianow, Radio Liberty, A1 Plus, Hetq, various blogs and individuals involved within the Armenian Assembly. These organizations and websites have become magnets for delusional asswipes amongst our people as of late. Off-set their effort, post remarks/comments in support of the ruling administration in Yerevan. However, be aware that anti-Levon comments are being periodically deleted by site administrators in order to artificially create an impression that a majority of the Armenian “public” is against the Armenian authorities. Therefore, be ready to repost your comments when required. We need to get involved, we need to contact our embassies, we need to contact Armenia’s presidential office and various national organizations and express our opposition to what is going on. At the very least, I ask all patriotic and concerned Armenians to post comments within the following two websites:

Hetq: http://www.hetq.am/eng/

ArmeniaNow: http://www.armenianow.com/

Good job, the street whores at Hetq shut their comments board down again. Keep them on the defensive. Let them see that their lies and slanders against the Armenian state is not tolerated by the concerned “public”.

Actually, this probably deserves a post of its own.
