When CNN launches a documentary which encourages the Westernization of Armenia, everybody loses their mind, drops everything and watches it, spreads it, e-mails it to friends and family!! When a Russian Documentary series about the First World War, after talking about the successful battle of Sarikamish, devotes an entire section about the Armenian Genocide, and about how Armenian volunteers aided Russian troops to liberate the Caucasus from the turks, none of our nations representatives are aware. Once again an initiative from the Russian side shows the vast importance Russia gives to its strategic ally, Armenia, yet our compatriots prefer bashing Russia, organizing anti-Russian rallies, protesting against the Eurasian Union, dreaming of joining the European Union, encouraging Armenia-NATO cooperation, encouraging euro-integration, spending their vacations in istanbul and antalya, worshiping turkish culture, mocking Armenian culture, spreading the idea of turkish-Armenian brotherhood and to leave the past behind, AND the most important of all, lobby with all their efforts in Washington so that Mr. President say the G-word. For the last 23 years, the Russian bear has been extending its hand to the Armenians, a hand that had seen war, blood and suffering from 200 years ago, a hand that understood the importance of an ally who is Orthodox Christian in the Caucasus, an ally that can be a great buffer against Turkic people, who incidentally are that allys arch-enemies. But what we are doing is spitting in the palm of that hand and trying to cut it out of the Caucasus. Brilliant!! The documentary in itself is a series about Russias front in World War 1. The beginning of Episode 3 discusses the battle of Sarikamish, and after 20 minutes an entire section is devoted to Armenian volunteer units and the Genocide. I encourage though that you watch the entire documentary, if time allows it. To non-Russian speakers, make sure to open English subtitles. World War One - Episode 3. Documentary Film. Historical Reenactment. 2014: https://youtube/watch?v=WBaxL1Rwvmg&feature=youtu.be&t=23m17s
