ARMENIA AND THE NEAR EAST
324The nations of Europe and the statesmen of Europe are
tired of the everlasting Armenian question. Of course. It
has only brought them one defeat after another, the very
mention of it recalling to their slumbering consciences a
grim tale of broken or unfulfilled promises which they have
never in practice done anything to keep. And after all, it
was only a massacred, but gifted little nation, with no oil-fields
or gold-mines.
Woe to the Armenians, that they were ever drawn into
European politics ! It would have been better for them if
the nåme of Armenia had never been uttered by any European
diplomatist.
But the Armenian people have never abandoned hope ;
they have gone on bravely working, and waiting . . . waiting
year after year.
They are waiting still.
