Update on this terrible war that has raged on for a month now. 🙁 At last there is peace. Thank you for praying for Armenia and the Armenian people. Azerbaijan has seized a significant amount of territory. They had to stop after shooting down a Russian helicopter in Armrnian territory and killing two pilots. Russia would likely have entered the war and Azerbaijan would have been in big trouble. Russian peacekeepers are being deployed immediately. Apparently Turkish ones, as well. (Talk about the fox in the chicken co-op.) It's a bitter peace for Armenians as they have lost an area that they have lived in for thousands of years. Please continue to pray for them as there will be a tremendous spirit of bitterness at the loss in this war. Thousands are dead. Many people's homes are destroyed. Armenia is such a poor nation economically and this will just add to that burden. My heart is so grieved. 🙁 Azerbaijan is threatening Armenia again and claiming territory that would essentially wipe Armenia off the map. Exactly what Turkey and Azerbaijan want. This has been historically Armenian land for thousands of years. If Azerbaijan and Turkey attacked, there would literally be a second Armenian genocide. Today, on December 10, during a military event taking place in the capital of Azerbaijan, the president of that country announced that Zangezur, Lake Sevan, and Yerevan are historical lands of Azerbaijan. Following that, the president of Turkey glorified the organizers and perpetrators of the Armenian Genocide during the times of the Ottoman Empire and the mass atrocities against Armenians committed in Baku in September 1918. In addition to the aforementioned, the speeches of both Azerbaijani and Turkish presidents were full of hatred against the Armenian people, threatening the life and health of the whole population of Armenia, contained expressions of insults and instigating hatred. Now it appears that Azerbaijan and Turkey are trying to extort Armenia out of its southern territory. Armenia is very poor and does not have $50 billion dollars. This would create a contiguous border between Turkey and Azerbaijan. Frankly, this is outrageous greed and aggression. “Yesterday, Turkey’s TGRT Haber (TGRT News) showcased a map of Armenia & Azerbaijan with a large part of the territory of Armenia as Azerbaijan. The map included the headline: “Armenia has no money. Let it give Zangezur.” The TV host claims that Azerbaijan is demanding $50 billion in damages for the Armenians living in Artsakh. He asks, “Who’s going to pay?…Not even Kim Kardashian can pay that. The reporter continues saying that a since Armenia has no money, they can just give up Zangezur instead as a form of compensation. While only a report, it is no secret that Turkey and Azerbaijan are attempting to realize their Pan-Turkic goals in creating a Turkic confederation. Artsakh for them is only the first step. Today reports emerged that Azerbaijan is starting to inch towards Armenia proper attempting to seize as much land as possible. The region of Syunik could be the next target for the joint Turk-Azeri manifest destiny. Zangezur Mountains is the mountain range that defines the border between Armenia and Azerbaijan’s Nakhchivan. “Turkish TGRT News TV channel has reported that Armenia must pay a $50 billion compensation to Azerbaijan, if not, then Syunik (Zangezur), must be annexed to Azerbaijan, said Yeghia Tashjian, a regional analyst and researcher on Twitter.” Heavenly Father, please confound the plans of the wicked and may their bows be broken and their swords shattered! May their greed and aggression be their undoing! :prayer-hands: Amen, amen! TR Nothing at all funny about this. There are no Armenians to attend this church since they all died in the genocide. 🙁 https://www.breitbart.com/faith/2021/01/01/turkey-turn-armenian-church-humor-art-center/ Evil men are laughing and mocking Almighty God. So foolish... And those men will burn in exceptionally hot flames in the Lake of Fire! The Lord cannot come for His Church soon enough! So many people, adults, children, and babes too, what a mess of horror —- terribly beyond sad, no words. God must weep for these types of heinous crimes against His creation. :prayer-hands: The genocide of any people group or individual is always a tragedy! Now the whole world seemingly is in peril, as we move towards the time of the AC! TR Par for the course. A politician says one thing and then their actions are the complete opposite. Biden, as the Resident, recognized the genocide of the Armenian people as he had promised. “The American people honor all those Armenians who perished in the genocide,” Biden said in a statement Saturday. “Over the decades Armenian immigrants have enriched the United States in countless ways, but they have never forgotten the tragic history that brought so many of their ancestors to our shores. We honor their story. We see that pain. We affirm the history. We do this not to cast blame but to ensure that what happened is never repeated,” he added. https://human-rights.cmc.edu/2021/04/24/biden-recognizes-armenian-genocide/ So, to "ensure that this is never repeated", the suddenly spendthrifty Biden has decided to cut aid to impoverished Democratic Armenia in half while giving Oil rich Azerbaijan, led by a corrupt, bloodthirsty dictator, about 7 times as much in military aid. A country that just recently attacked Armenia! *Sigh* :wacko: YEREVAN, MARCH 29, ARMENPRESS. The Biden Administration called for just $24 million in U.S. assistance to Armenia in the White House Fiscal Year (FY) 2023 budget proposal released today – $21 million less than what Congress allocated and the President approved for FY 2022 just weeks ago, reported the Armenian National Committee of America (ANCA). “We are disappointed that President Biden’s annual budget – released in the wake of a government watchdog report documenting over $164,000,000 in U.S. military aid to Azerbaijan – flat-lines U.S. aid to Armenia at just over $24 million and fails to include any specific dollar amount for U.S. assistance to Artsakh,” said ANCA Executive Director Aram Hamparian. “We look to our Congressional allies, coalition partners, and community activists to work through the foreign aid appropriations process to dramatically boost U.S. aid numbers for both Artsakh and Armenia.” https://armenpress.am/eng/news/1079223.html To sum it up, there is a lot of oil in Azerbaijan and as of yet, no oil in Armenia. I hate this duplicitous and wicked world system, governed by greed and self interest. :negative: Heavenly Father please Judge and Condemn the blatant hypocrisy, greed and selfishness in this corrupt and wicked world system. Please send Your Son to utterly clean house. Establish Your Righteous rule upon this earth. Give us proper Government as we have shown clearly that we are incapable of governing ourselves. In Jesus' Name. Amen. :prayer-hands: Waiting for the day... Habakkuk 2:14 New King James Version 14 For the earth will be filled With the knowledge of the glory of the Lord, As the waters cover the sea.
so upsetting, please come soon Lord! :prayer-hands:
