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.

      Russia opens ‘genocide’ criminal case on South Ossetia events

      TSKHINVAL, August 14 (Itar-Tass) - The Russian Prosecutor’s Investigative Committee has opened a criminal case over the fact of murder of Russian citizens in South Ossetia under the Criminal Code article “genocide,” Igor Komissarov, an aide to the committee’s chairman, told Itar-Tass.

      “The Investigative Committee’s main department have instituted criminal proceedings under Article 357 of the Russian Criminal Code- “genocide” based on received information on actions taken by the Georgian armed forces aimed at the liquidation of citizens of Russia residing in South Ossetia and Ossetians by nationality by way of murders and infliction of heavy damage to health,” said Komissarov.

      About 100 Russian investigators are continuing work in Tskhinval at present probing into the killings of Russian citizens and Russian peacekeepers.

      Georgian President Mikhail Saakashvili’s actions in South Ossetia are a war crime and an act of genocide against Ossetians, Russian permanent representative to NATO Dmitry Rogozin said earlier. “At least 2,500 people have already fallen victim to a humanitarian catastrophe in South Ossetia. Since the entire population of South Ossetia is 73,000, proportionately this is the biggest act of genocide in the history of Europe since World War II,” Rogozin told a briefing on Monday.

      “The most terrible thing is that this is happening not because of a natural calamity but because of a well thought-out plan of Georgian authorities,” he said. Rogozin spoke in detail about Russia’s efforts to overcome the humanitarian catastrophe, the goals of the operation to enforce peace in South Ossetia and about Russia’s demands to stop the conflict. “Our demands are that the Georgian troops should leave the area where the peacekeepers stay, a ceasefire should be announced, and an agreement on the non-use of force should be signed,” he said. Georgia is showing disrespect for international law and notions of humanity in the conduct of military actions, Rogozin said.

      Some day, Russia will raise the problem of genocide of the Ossetian people and ethnic cleansings that Georgian forces have carried out in the unrecognised republic of South Ossetia, Russian President Dmitry Medvedev said Tuesday as he addressed a joint news conference together with French President Nicolas Sarkozy.

      “Quite naturally, the problem of ethnic cleansings there does exist, and we’ve been quite resolute in raising the issue and will continue raising it in the future to expose the people responsible for them,” Medvedev said. “However, some of our partners ask us in private conversations for some reason to refrain from raising it,” he said. “Maybe, they feel shy.”

      “International law qualifies such problems as a crime, like the slaughter of thousands of people, and it is called genocide,” Medvedev said. “More than that, we’ve said in the past we’re surprised to see the situations where one individual who killed thousands of people is described as a terrorist and a moron while another such individual is treated as a legitimately elected president of a sovereign country,” he said.

      “International law doesn’t have provisions for the use of double standards, and we must observe this in political practices,” Medvedev said.





      “The city was burnt to the ground, leveled. It’s like Stalingrad. The images are very similar,” said South Ossetian presidential plenipotentiary in Russia Dmitry Medoyev. He added that it is still dangerous to talk over mobile phones, as it may invoke another round of shelling.
