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.

  • When there are no enough Armenians To Torture !

    "group of small boys and girls were stripped naked and hosed down with what was described as scalding hot water. When one of the children complained, the attendant was shown hitting him on the head with a fist-sized stone" - reports Turkish journalist Amberin Zaman on 28 October 2005 about Turkish abuses of orphans.

    Nemesis News Editorial, 31 October 2005:

    While many argue that Hitler and other Nazis had learned various genocidal techniques from the Turkish perpetrators of the Armenian genocide ( 1915-1923 ), the opposite statement might be true as much.


    As The New York Times reports on 29 September 2005, mentally ill citizens are being tortured and starved in government-funded Turkish hospitals and orphanages. Through electroshock and starvation, many disabled children have died, though exact numbers are not known. The director of a human rights group, Eric Rosenthal, is quoted as saying that visitors to the Turkish mental health hospitals “saw children who were essentially abandoned, starving, ties down to their beds.” The use of the electroshock without the use of anesthesia, which prevents patients from suffering, is used as punishment against the disabled, as the Turkish doctors explain.

    In the last 90 years, millions of people have been “punished” to death in Turkey for not being a Turk, Muslim or a “good” citizen. The idea of a “pure” Turkish nation has led Turkish politicians to change the names of 12,000 geographic names, destroy thousands of Christian monuments and even rename scientific names of animals.

    The question that arises is whether the torture and starvation of disabled people in Turkey is done by genocidal intent to make the nation more “pure.” The historic precedent, in any case, shows that the mentally ill have been victims of racist governments, such as the case of the genocide of the disabled by Nazi Germany.



    Interestingly, one of the techniques of Nazi physicians of killing the disabled was also starvation. The Nazi murderers called the ill “useless eaters.” While Hitler ordered the destruction of the “useless eaters” in a careful way, euphemistically instructing that “persons…who are incurable…be accorded a mercy death,” Turkish doctors do not even bother to find medical arguments for their abuses.

    Human rights activists have not been permitted to “see the worst wards.” Could there be something worse than ill children being electrified to death? In Turkey, perhaps.

    Thanks God, Turkey decided to investigate the abuses. As Amberin Zaman writes on Oct 28 2005 , "[o]n Thursday, Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan called the actions 'a crime against humanity' and vowed that 'those who are responsible will be punished.' Hope the criminals will be punished, but it seems Turkish torture of orphans has a long history and only international concern brought attention.
