Forum Rules (Everyone Must Read!!!)

1] What you CAN NOT post.

You agree, through your use of this service, that you will not use this forum to post any material which is:
- abusive
- vulgar
- hateful
- harassing
- personal attacks
- obscene

You also may not:
- post images that are too large (max is 500*500px)
- post any copyrighted material unless the copyright is owned by you or cited properly.
- post in UPPER CASE, which is considered yelling
- post messages which insult the Armenians, Armenian culture, traditions, etc
- post racist or other intentionally insensitive material that insults or attacks another culture (including Turks)

The Ankap thread is excluded from the strict rules because that place is more relaxed and you can vent and engage in light insults and humor. Notice it's not a blank ticket, but just a place to vent. If you go into the Ankap thread, you enter at your own risk of being clowned on.
What you PROBABLY SHOULD NOT post...
Do not post information that you will regret putting out in public. This site comes up on Google, is cached, and all of that, so be aware of that as you post. Do not ask the staff to go through and delete things that you regret making available on the web for all to see because we will not do it. Think before you post!


2] Use descriptive subject lines & research your post. This means use the SEARCH.

This reduces the chances of double-posting and it also makes it easier for people to see what they do/don't want to read. Using the search function will identify existing threads on the topic so we do not have multiple threads on the same topic.

3] Keep the focus.

Each forum has a focus on a certain topic. Questions outside the scope of a certain forum will either be moved to the appropriate forum, closed, or simply be deleted. Please post your topic in the most appropriate forum. Users that keep doing this will be warned, then banned.

4] Behave as you would in a public location.

This forum is no different than a public place. Behave yourself and act like a decent human being (i.e. be respectful). If you're unable to do so, you're not welcome here and will be made to leave.

5] Respect the authority of moderators/admins.

Public discussions of moderator/admin actions are not allowed on the forum. It is also prohibited to protest moderator actions in titles, avatars, and signatures. If you don't like something that a moderator did, PM or email the moderator and try your best to resolve the problem or difference in private.

6] Promotion of sites or products is not permitted.

Advertisements are not allowed in this venue. No blatant advertising or solicitations of or for business is prohibited.
This includes, but not limited to, personal resumes and links to products or
services with which the poster is affiliated, whether or not a fee is charged
for the product or service. Spamming, in which a user posts the same message repeatedly, is also prohibited.

7] We retain the right to remove any posts and/or Members for any reason, without prior notice.


- PLEASE READ -

Members are welcome to read posts and though we encourage your active participation in the forum, it is not required. If you do participate by posting, however, we expect that on the whole you contribute something to the forum. This means that the bulk of your posts should not be in "fun" threads (e.g. Ankap, Keep & Kill, This or That, etc.). Further, while occasionally it is appropriate to simply voice your agreement or approval, not all of your posts should be of this variety: "LOL Member213!" "I agree."
If it is evident that a member is simply posting for the sake of posting, they will be removed.


8] These Rules & Guidelines may be amended at any time. (last update September 17, 2009)

If you believe an individual is repeatedly breaking the rules, please report to admin/moderator.

  • War on Iraq

    8) As Ironic as it may be, Considering I have already served 2 and unfortunately have 4 years to go, I am in the Army.

    As interesting as it may sound I would like to know what you people think about Bush and all his madness, along with all his sidekicks.

    A lot of crap has been going on so please speak your minds. It is the point of things ya know. Don't be scared :arrow:

    I am against war on Iraq. It's nothing more than another war for oil and Bush Co. Bush family is the oil family and him and his cronies have been pestering Iraq since the Gulf War. I have family there in Iraq, and in Armenia and Armenia itself is within the vicinity so what happens there will echo in the neighboring countries. The so called "Weapons of mass destruction" argument holds no water as it is being applied to Iraq in a hypocritical manner. If we truly are worried about weapons of mass destruction the United States should hold the terrorist state of Israel to the same consequences. Why single out Iraq? Israel is the only country within the Middle East to posses known nuclear weapons. No evidence has been put forth that Iraq has any. On the opposite end of the spectrum, you have the U.S. freely selling its weapons and technology to Israel.

    The war on Iraq is two-fold, one is for the obvious control of oil in that region and the other to destabalize the only possible threat to the terrorist state of Israel. Despite all the mumbo jumbo jingoism spewed forth by the American media and the crooked politicians, Israel is not our ally. An "ally" would not go selling U.S. weapons and technology to China, which is the complete polar opposite of the U.S. and stands fast against U.S. hegemony.

    The administration has no evidence that Hussein has weapons of destruction. If it did, it would have shown it to the American public and the U.N. long ago. It has no evidence that Iraq is in league with Al Qaeda for the same reason. And it's obvious that even if, a big if according to Genernal Norman Schwarzkopf, a U.S. invasion does succeed in easily toppling Hussein, the result of that unprovoked assault, especially if it is carried out by the U.S. without a U.N. endorsement, will be a wave of terror against Americans and American interests that will dwarf anything seen in the past. Neither Bush, Rumsfeld, Ashcroft or any of the other Bush dummies have had combat experience and all of them were draft dodgers. The only one that holds merit is Colon Powell.

    This is all self-evident, and even the Bush Administration has tacitly admitted that increased terrorism will be the result of an attack on Iraq. The point, however, is that this is precisely what the Bush Administration wants to happen. A permanent state of American panic, fortified by regular doses of terror attacks, hijackings and building demolitions by crazed Muslim fanatics is exactly what Bush needs to stay in power, win re-election in 2004, stack the federal courts, gut the Bill of Rights, and enrich its corporate sponsors.

    The sad thing is that Americans, fattened up and soft of muscle from their diet of mcdonald's wppers and dim-witted from an overdose of "reality" TV shows and entertainment programs posing as news, suck up this kind of fear-mongering all of which is eagerly played up by ratings-hungry media executives. If one plane gets highjacked, plane travel plummets. If a few letters are found to be contaminated with anthrax spores, people across the land stop opening their mail, or start zapping it first in their microwaves.

    In Europe, Asia, Africa or South America, where wars and terrorism, not to mention natural disasters, have been a way of life, the loss of a few hundred, or even a few thousand people, to a bomb, an earthquake, a flood or a civil war, does not induce a national panic. The other sad thing about Americans is that Americans have no notion of the horrors of war, and so are quick to wish it on others. It's no wonder those people of "Old Europe," as "chickenhawk" Rumsfeld disparagingly referred to Germany and fFrance, are more reluctant about going to war in Iraq. They know that dropping bombs from B-52s all across the country and fighting door-to-door in Baghdad will produce horrific casualties and create destruction that will take years to repair.

    Americans have only the WTC to look at when they try to contemplate the effects of war, and all in all, that was a pretty antiseptic affair. One second you the towers, another second, they were gone, and within a year or so, the site was all cleaned up and ready for a nifty new building. Indeed, the only institutional memory left of that attrocity is the unseemly battle by survivors of the once high-flying investment banker victims of the attack to get better reimbursements from the government for their unfortunate loss of those six figure incomes.

    Vietnam is still recovering from its having been the target of all those bombs, napalm and Agent Orange attacks, not to mention the loss of a generation of its young men and women. Afghanistan may never recover from the relatively minor recent war there. If anyone value our society, our polity, our rights and liberties, and our security, they must begin exposing Bush and his War Party for what they are, craven usurpers aiming at nothing less than the undermining of all those things that most of us hold dear.

      i was watching Canadian News yesterday, there was a report about how the Israeli government gave out gas masks to all its citizens, except Arabs. i was flipping through the channels and on a American news channel, there was a commercial with the following words: Israel is America's number one ally. Israel is a model democratic country, all citizens have equal rights and can vote freely..

        That is a blatant lie. Israel is the most racist apartheid like state in the middle east. A "democracy" bent on ethnic cleansing and expulsion and second class treatment of Arabs isn't much of a democracy.

          yeah exactly my point, and the fact that there is a commercial like this on a popular news channel, not to mention the pro Israel stand on American news it makes me wonder who really has power in this country, including power over the media.....
          while when you watch Canadian, German or Russian news, you see a completely different view of things.

            Obviously the Israeli lobbyists have a major strangle hold over American foreign policy, and not to mention the media.

              Hmmm well, lets see. In about a few months, if the US dont force iraq to give up all bioligical weapons that we ASSUME they have, the same anti war protestors will be protesting again. They will xxxxx that "Bush had reason to suspect iraq of harboring weapons, and didnt act upon it." We have probable cause that iraq is harboring weapons. The missles that can travel 300 miles outside the agreed range they can travel from the pact from the first war with the original bush. Another reason we should stand firm against IRAQ is to show other terrorist countries with biological warfare that the USA is standing firm in its fight against terrorism. After 9-11, we must show that we arent gonna allow another incident like this. We have to show power, to refrain countries such as Israel and N. Korean to consider attacking us. Iraq is just a demonstration that the US means business.

                Google, you don't have any idea of what the war on terrorism is about do you? It the end it is a war for oil and it is a war to support Israels terrorist activities.

                You see the U.S.government relies its existence on a constant enemy, and hence during the Cold War justified its imperialism by the communist menace, and now after the break up of the union it needs another boogie to justify its imperialism and build up. It's so Orwellian one wonders why the common lemmings cant see but always suckering up to the govenrment and media propaganda. They would have you believe that the only governments that can resort to terrorism or destruction are banana republics or communist nations or Islamic countries, about anything to justify their hegemony, and that can only be made to believe by the warmongers in the U.S.

                I won't even mention the fact that the U.S. is the one who built and bred and sustained and funded these terrorists to what they are today, nor for the matter that the U.S. had prior knowledge of the 9-11 incident, nor for the fact that there is no evidence linking Al Qaeda to Iraq.
