American Christians are invited to search the total record for themselves to determine who is telling truth and who is making up and spreading tall tales for their own selfish reasons. In 1992, Armenia captured 20 percent of the lands of Muslim Azerbaijan through a surprise, unprovoked attack. The Armenians thrust more than a million Muslims from their homes without compensation, forcing them now to live in squalor in tent city refugee camps. The Russians gave Armenia more than a billion dollars worth of military arms and supplies. According to a U.S. Congressional Study Report, over the past ten years, the United States has given Armenia 1.4 billion dollars in foreign aid while discriminating against Muslim Azerbaijan by cutting foreign aid to it. This is one reason many Muslims hate Americans.When the Azerbaijani government recovered from the attack, the country began to defend itself from the Armenian terrorists. Congress reacted by punishing Azerbaijan. The Armenian lobby within the United States lobbied Congress to pass laws to cut off many kinds of aid to Azerbaijan because the Azerbaijanis had established a blockade to prevent military supplies from reaching Armenia. In 1992, Congress passed the Freedom Support Act and Section 907, which restricts certain types of foreign aid to Azerbaijan until it has lifted its "illegal" blockade of Armenia. Does the United States have the right to determine how one nation defends itself against another? What if another nation had passed such legislation against the United States after Japan attacked us on December 7, 1941. Why, then, is the United States punishing Azerbaijan? Why is the United States denying a country its sacred right to defend its land and people? Why is the United States taking the side of aggressor and ethnic cleanser? Didn’t we punish an aggressor – Saddam Hussein – by bombing Iraq? Didn’t we punish an ethnic cleanser – Slobodan Milosevic – by bombing Yugoslavia? Why are we now rewarding some others who perpetrated both aggression and ethnic cleansing?Perhaps Congress passed such a law because the Armenians claim to be the first Christian nation on earth and Azerbaijan is a Muslim country. Is it any wonder gasoline prices have steadily increased during this same period of time because the Middle Eastern countries we obtain oil from are also Muslim? Clearly, these Islamic countries have no reason to cut the United States any slack when America joined with Russia to help Armenia attack its neighbor. This American attitude of helping so - called Christians against Muslims, even when the so - called Christians are terribly wrong and do evil deeds, is a major reason many Middle Eastern Muslims hate Americans. Consider just how and why the United States discriminated against Muslim Azerbaijan. In 1992, the small but vocal Armenian - American lobby talked the U.S. Congress into passing a law to cut aid to Azerbaijan. Why? Because the Armenians claim Azerbaijan refused to allow Armenia to continue to use its ports to receive military supplies and to allow Armenia permission to transport those supplies over Azerbaijan territory. Armenian - Americans influenced Congress to call the Azerbaijan act of self - defense an "illegal embargo».Now, after September 11, President George W Bush is attempting to reach out and secure support of Muslim nations – including Azerbaijan – to help in the U.S. war on terrorism. One reason this small state is important to America’s war effort is because of how near it is geographically to Afghanistan. The president has asked Congress to repeal the 1992 law cutting off foreign aid to Azerbaijan. As a result of this, Armenian - Americans launched a nationwide campaign to oppose President Bush’s effort to get the support of this important Muslim country. Armenian - Americans claim it might harm Armenia. Apparently, this is more important than the national interests of the United States. At the same time Armenian - Americans are fighting President Bush, they are also working to get an Armenian terrorist out of a California prison. This Armenian terrorist assassinated a Turkish diplomat in 1982. The terrorist was caught, charged, tried, found guilt by a California jury, and sentenced to life in prison without parole. Armenian - Americans want this convicted assassin back on the streets of the United States.
