War Does Not Tolerate Groundless Optimism and 'Encouraging' Misinformation: Senor Hasratyan

Senor Hasratyan has written: The homeland must be loved not only with emotion, but even more so through action. I bow my head before emotion, yet more powerful is the truth that announces what a person has accomplished...

It is possible to reject this reality, but to pass by it 'barefaced' means, first and foremost, to deceive oneself... A homeland must be loved as a soldier protecting his trench loves the idea behind it. That is to say, standing face to face with death, inspired by action and faith.

War does not tolerate trickery, pompous and unwarranted declarations, groundless optimism, and 'encouraging' misinformation. War is the realm of knights, each of whom— from private to general, volunteers to intellectuals, women, minors, or the elderly— knows their duty and fulfills it nobly and to the best of their ability...

Only by loving the homeland this way and acting for it is VICTORY forged!
