The EU has betrayed its own democratic values when it called on Russia to stop supporting the legitimate president of Syria and backed revolutionaries willing to overthrow the legitimate Syrian government, Austrian Contra Magazin wrote.

“Who decides whether an elected head of a state can keep his office, or has to resign? The EU? The USA?” Assad was and will be the only stabilizing factor in the Middle East, although the US and its ally Saudi Arabia make every effort to overthrow him and his government, the magazine wrote.

According to the magazine, the United States used to demonstrate its power and behavior of being an exceptional state which sought to rule the world. The EU has also started to follow the path of this type and has turned into a totally dependent vassal of the US.
The author argued that no one allowed the EU to involve the population of its member countries in armed conflicts and intervene into regions, which the Union has nothing to do with.
When the EU called on Russia to stay away from supporting the legitimate head of state who had asked for help and at the same time backed the opposition seeking a governmental coup, it did not act as a union which promotes rule of law and democracy, but rather as a criminal association that furthers anarchy in the name of all its member countries.
The peoples of the European Union would not want such an EU if they were asked their opinion. The Union has become so disgusting that there is only one solution: to abolish it completely and immediately, the article said.

“The excuse that this is about Russia and therefore any form of the war idiocy is allowed is not only ridiculous, but also old, naive, stupid, inflammatory, apolitical and criminal; because Russia has done nothing wrong and is doing nothing wrong. Assad has asked Russia for help against the ISIL and that’s what Russia is currently dealing with,” the magazine reported.

Lebanese magazine Audio Kultur has released a series of posters and a limited-edition version of its April issue printed using human blood to mark the 100th anniversary of the Armenian Genocide, the Calvert Journal reports.

The project “Still here, Still Bleeding”, named after the slogan printed across the covers and posters, was developed by the Beirut-based independent magazine to celebrate the contribution that Lebanon’s Armenian population have made to the country’s cultural landscape.

“In Lebanon these contributions have been especially substantial, and a lot of the contributors are friends, colleagues and even family members,” Tres Colacion, editor-in-chief of Audio Kultur, said. “It’s a community that is really fully integrated into Lebanese society and, with the occasion of the 100-year anniversary, it was a project that our editorial team felt compelled to take on.”

Audio Kultur approached five Lebanese-Armenians working in creative industries and asked them each to donate a vial of blood, which was mixed with red ink and used to print the words “Still Here, Still Bleeding” on the front cover of each special edition magazine.

“The donors were all very taken aback when we approached them,” Colacion said. “I think it holds a significance that is not easy to describe. We heard stories of rape, murder, torture…and of survival. It was a very emotional process in ways none of us have ever experienced. Obviously it was a somber experience, but it was also really inspiring.”

Lebanon has one of the highest Armenian populations in the world, many of which are grandchildren of Armenians who took refuge in Lebanon after the genocide in 1915.
