    A DANGEROUS MYTH

    August 1 2013

    The false assertion of NKR Defense Army commander Movses Hakobyan
    that Levon Ter-Petrosyan visited Karabakh for the first time in 1996
    fully fits in the "concept" adopted by the government in 1998, and
    so far used by the authorities, the goal of which is to derogate the
    role of the commander-in-chief of the armed forces in the Karabakh
    war. While there should be some kind of Articles on immunity where
    contemporary political situation does not penetrate; distortion of
    the national liberation struggle, the current official mythology
    directly hit not "previous authorities", but the self-consciousness
    of our people. Living without legends, of course, is impossible. Levon
    Ter-Petrosyan and his fans also have their own mythology. According to
    it, in 1990-1998 there was a constitutional order operating in Armenia
    (just for this reason the goal of their program is "to restore it"),
    the authorities was not corrupt, they were holding free and fair
    elections, and no one was pursued for political views, there was
    a freedom of rallies and speech. This tale is honestly belived not
    only by the young parties (ANC members) that were little kids at the
    time (which is normal), but also by those who were in power at the
    time and definitely knew that the aforesaid 'pink' assertations
    do not meet the reality. But, knowing on the level of conscious
    and accepting spiritually-heartedly, as we know, are different
    things. Other parties are not also apart from the myths. For example,
    the Dashnak party and the PAP party think that Robert Kocharyan has
    been elected president twice, and during his tenure there was such an
    economic well-being that people were blessing their president and the
    government every hour. And now Paruyr Hayrikyan and his followers,
    based on Hayrikyan's character, build myths around "Hayrikyan"
    phenomenon: he has always said and did the right things, he has
    established and predicted everything, and all the other politicians,
    when they were listening to his prophecy, everything was good, but
    when they were not listening to him, the things were going bad. But,
    I repeat, all of these myths are more innocent and inoffensive than
    the tales that the representatives of the authorities coming to power
    after 1998 were inventing about the Artsakh liberation war and the
    role of the first president of Armenia. Because, this "modern"
    mythology directly discredits our most important achievement, and,
    thus, is directed against our national security. And, in general,
    not just politicians and political parties have their own mythology,
    but also we, ordinary people, all of us without exception. It has
    one 'antidote': without giving rise to superstitions, with open
    eyes and hearts adopt what is contrary to our 'private' mythology.
