70 Armenian fighters join YPG Kurds

[Pennywise]

Didn't surprise me at all. Armenians always supported Kurds against Turks and etc. Kurds and Armenians are very close nations.

Not only closeness, they view Kurds as cannon fodders. They will all have hard times against IS

Armenians are very bigoted/conservative nation. They never see a non-orthodox christian folk as their brothers. Of course they see Kurds as cannon fodders.

This is very correct. They also don't hide this fact with the red symbolism. I wonder wether all these seventy Armenians are also more Communists than Orthodox or not.

Honestly, I'd like to see another source. 70 is too high. Maybe one or two Armenians, but nowhere I have read there are 70 Armenian fighting. It could be Syrian Armenians, which is natural since ISIS is killing Armenians.

I'm happy to hear people are joining the resistance.
