ARMENIA - THE ANCESTRAL HOME OF HOMELANDS Is there a country in the world whose name moves us more than the name Armenia? Thinking humanity should always cherish a feeling of involuntary respect for ancient Asia. The glorious, beautiful image of Masis, our historical Mount Ararat, inscribed in the tradition, should always rise before our souls. The ancient belief in miracles has certainly faded, and on its sparkling white summit, no one is anymore searching for the blackened wreckage of the ark in which our ancestor supposedly found refuge. Symbols are now useless, because the knowledge of naturalists, ethnologists, and historiographers tells us how important the country of Armenia is for anyone who studies flora and fauna and the migration of peoples. Armenia is the homeland of each and every one; it is the ancestral home of our individual homelands. All of us—French, English, Germans, and Italians—still dream of seeing in mountainous Asia a cherished land facing the Caucasus—the cradle of our ancestors. Alas, inherited glory is not always accompanied by fortune. Is there a single modern people who has suffered more misfortunes than the Armenians? Divided between three powers, they have found no home in any of them. They always lodge with strangers, and these strangers have more than once proven their oppressors and enemies. When will the so-called "National Accord" overcome its cowardice and servility in the face of crowned executioners? Among the humiliations that weigh upon us, there is no one more grievous and painful. And the unfortunate Armenians, in their naivety, still honor us and call upon us, us traitors, cowards, and hypocrites, while we, with cowardly words, redirect this call from one merciful benefactor to another compassionate benefactor, that is, from death to slavery, from slavery to death. Jean-Jacques-Elisée Reclus – French geographer, historian, and sociologist (1830 – 1905)

There is no better way to explain the Nation of Armenia and Armenians through pain they have gone through and how they have survived for thousands of years despite all odds against them than the way Jean-Jacques-Elisée Reclus – French geographer, historian, and sociologist has explained.

About Venice

By
  1. Venice was built on wooden piles – True. The city is constructed on millions of wooden piles driven into the clay and sand beneath the lagoon. Alder wood, known for its water resistance, was primarily used, along with oak and larch. 2. The wooden piles have petrified over time – Partially true. The piles haven’t literally turned into stone (petrification), but they have become extremely hard. This is because they are submerged in oxygen-poor water, which prevents decay and allows minerals from the water to gradually reinforce the wood. 3. St. Mark’s Campanile stands on 100,000 piles – False. The bell tower is supported by about 10,000 wooden piles, not 100,000. 4. Basilica della Salute required over a million trunks – Likely an exaggeration. The basilica does rest on thousands of piles, but claims of a million are probably inflated. 5. Piles are driven up to three meters deep and spaced half a meter apart – Generally accurate. The depth and spacing vary, but...

Various INFORMATION regarding the California Fires - January 2025 via social media

By
Various videos reporting the fires in Los Angeles area on Twitter/X   Updated information Jan 10, 2025: About the Resnicks and shortage of WATER and other manipulations." One billionaire couple owns almost all water in California. The family donates SIGNIFICANTLY to Democratic candidates You won’t believe this, in 2021 they made a huge donation to Gavin Newsom to fight against his recall Lynda and Stewart Resnick own roughly 60% of California's water rights. Some estimates say this could be as high as 75% “They use over 150 billion gallons of water every year” “Water used to be considered a public right, that was until 1994 when there was a secret meeting. These two were in attendance and it was divided up by private interest groups before the 1994 secret meeting.” They’ve been paying off Democrats ever since to keep the scam going and Governor Gavin Newsom is their guy"  =================================== I had a girlfriend mention about “smart cities” and I ju...
