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.

    I don't think with the current right-wing government in Israel there will be substantial progress. Even US is strained with Israel over several issues, so it's not the best atmosphere for a peace deal right now. Calling it the "struggle for free Palestine" is kind of absurd, as any viable solution is going to be two-state, so Palestine will be officially independent one day or later. Really it's solving those issues like the new settlements or the status of Jerusalem, those touchy subjects are the real problems here. Honestly I think Jerusalem should be an international city, city state, like Vatican City. With the governance headed by all three main religions that are represented there. Of course getting Israel to budge on this will be very hard, even getting them to stop new settlements is hard. But on other hand, people are also going to have to get used to Israel being there, and being a viable state, energy should not be put in trying to wipe out Israel, but trying to work out the best deal with the Israelis.
    I don't think there should be a state of Israel, it should go back to what it was under British mandate before the Zionists imported terrorism to the "holy" land.

      History's repeating itself... first it was the Palestinian notables and landowners who sold land to the Zionists, then stirred up the dispossessed population against the xxxs, now they're again selling land for some petty authority over a people stripped of everything...

            Why not? xxxs have been living in that part of the world for ages, why don't they deserve a state? And how did they import terrorism to the holy land? It's been a see-saw conflict between the Arabs and Israelis in that area.

              But not at the expense of the Arabs.

                You've answered your own question. There wasn't a see-saw battle until Israel was forced on the region. Palestine was supposed to be free for all its inhabitants. People of the world would have been able to freely visit the area but instead the holy land has been taken hostage.

                  I believe xxxs deserved a state, they have lived in that area like the arabs for ages; Israel has the right to exist. When it comes to issue of Jerusalem, I think it should belong neither to the Israels nor to the Palestinians, it should be an independent city. And finally there should be a two state solution between the two of course.

                  Now when it comes to the conflict between the two, honestly blaming it on one side entirely is inappropriate. The Arab countries in the region have from the start attempted to destroy Israel, and naturally Israel has responded in order to survive. Have they done wrong things also? Of course they have.

                    Even orthodox J3ws agree there shouldn't be a J3wish state. They are the ones who are literate in scripture. They realize its a power vacuum that isn't sustainable. If it was to become a two state entity, that would automatically put an end to the imperialist ambitions of the Zionist leaders which means they would forfeit their rule over the region altogether.

                      It's already, de-facto, a two state entity, all Palestine needs is official recognition, which it will get after a peace deal. Many people on both sides agree to the 2 state solution; the whole peace negotiations are based on the 2 state solution. The real issue at hand is the status of Jerusalem and the new settlements.

                      So you think they rule the region? Remember Israel is a tiny territory surrounded by much bigger Arab countries; in no way does it rule the area, it's just powerful military and no arab nation has been able to do anything about it. L
