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.

    Referendum in Sudan no 'precedent' for Karabakh
    Wed 19 January 2011 06:41 GMT | -2:41 Local Time
    Text size:

    Ali Hasanov
    A senior Azerbaijani official has said that the referendum in Sudan, expected to result in secession for the south, cannot be applied to Karabakh.
    Political circles in Armenia, including Foreign Minister Edward Nalbandian, have said that the referendum in southern Sudan could serve as a precedent for the resolution of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict.
    Ali Hasanov, head of the public and political department at the Azerbaijani Presidential Administration, told Trend news agency: "This is a decision taken by the people of Sudan, while Nagorno-Karabakh is an integral part of Azerbaijan. The main population of Nagorno-Karabakh was forced to flee their homes, only Armenians are left there. For this reason, the definition of the future of Nagorno-Karabakh cannot be put to a referendum."
    Hasanov said the issue could be put to a vote only when the whole population of Nagorno-Karabakh had returned home. Only then can the opinion of the majority be taken into account and the future of these lands decided.
    In comments reported by state-run news agency AzerTAj, Ali Hasanov said the Armenian authorities should see the growth of Azerbaijan's military potential as a serious message and stop dragging out the Karabakh peace talks.
    "Azerbaijan is raising its military potential and developing the defence industry," Hasanov said.
    "The principles and position of the parties on the resolution of the conflict are known. However, the negotiations are again protracted as a result of the destructive position of Armenia. The Armenians are trying to drag out the negotiating process by any means possible," the head of department said.

    "More than $3bn will be allocated to defence and the defence industry from the budget in 2011. This shows that Azerbaijan will never accept the occupation. No matter how long the Armenians draw out the conflict settlement, Azerbaijan will liberate its lands from occupation sooner or later," Hasanov said.
    Trend, AzerTAj

    so all conflicts that end with a country's self determination are not precedent for the Karabakh conflict?

      Azerbaijan's ruling party considers document on Khojaly genocide adopted by OIC as serious blow to Armenia25.01.2011 17:38


      Azerbaijan, Baku, Jan. 25 / Trend T. Hajiyev /

      Azerbaijan's ruling party considers the document on the Khojaly genocide adopted by the Organization of Islamic Conference as a serious blow to Armenia.

      "The document on Justice for Khojaly was discussed at the 13th session of the OIC Parliamentary Union. It was included in the final declaration of the session. This is a serious blow to the aggressor - Armenia," MP Mubariz Gurbanli said in an interview with the official website of the New Azerbaijan Party.

      He said that the world community knows about massacre committed by Armenians.

      "The political line defined by national leader Heydar Aliyev to inform the world about the Khojaly tragedy is continued. The head of Russian representation of the Heydar Aliyev
      Foundation Leyla Aliyeva makes significant contribution in this direction.

      The OIC Parliamentary Union recognized the Khojaly tragedy as an act of genocide. It can be a significant step from a political perspective to sentence the perpetrators of this crime in accordance with the international law. At the moment, the work is underway, " he added

      The Armenian military forces committed genocide in Khojaly on Feb. 26 1992. More than 600 people were killed, including 63 children, 106 women and 70 old men. A total of 1,000 civilians were disabled during the genocide. Eight families were annihilated, 130 children lost one parent, and 25 lost both parents. Additionally, 1,275 peaceful residents were taken hostage, while the fate of 150 remains unknown.

          They must be living in a small world.
          Politics is not about the pursuit of morality nor what's right or wrong
          Its about self interest at personal and national level often at odds with the above.
          Great politicians pursue the National interest and small politicians personal interests

            Azerbaijan's territorial integrity was infringed by the labels of products exhibited at "International Green Week - 2011" in Berlin, Germany. Some cognacs were revealed among the products of the Armenian stand indicating "Karabakh" as the Armenian territory "Artsakh".

            Measures have been taken to prevent the distribution of these products at the exhibition. The labels indicating "Karabakh" as "Artsakh" were also removed.

            The conflict between the two South Caucasus countries began in 1988 when Armenia made territorial claims against Azerbaijan. Armenian armed forces have occupied 20 percent of Azerbaijan since 1992, including the Nagorno-Karabakh region and 7 surrounding districts.

            Azerbaijan and Armenia signed a ceasefire agreement in 1994. The co-chairs of the OSCE Minsk Group - Russia, France, and the U.S. - are currently holding the peace negotiations.

            Armenia has not yet implemented the U.N. Security Council's four resolutions on the liberation of the Nagorno-Karabakh and the surrounding regions

              PACE MPs say Karabakh deserves international recognition

              January 27, 2011 | 17:34
              On Thursday 29 PACE MPs signed “Building of a democratic state by the Republic of Mountainous Karabagh” declaration.

              The document says “Azerbaijan declared itself the successor of the Azerbaijani Republic that existed from 1918-1920. But Mountainous Karabagh (Artsakh) was never a part of that state, and it was because of the Kemalist-Bolshevik “deal” that Artsakh had become a part of Soviet Azerbaijan.”

              “In 1991, the people of Karabagh voted “yes” to independence through a referendum that was observed and recognised by numerous international observers. But refusing to accept the Artsakh Armenians’ lawful exercise of their right of self-determination, Azerbaijan launched a large-scale attack which ended with the 1994 ceasefire.

              Even though Azerbaijan still violates this ceasefire, Karabagh Armenians continue to peacefully build their democratic state and are guided by international norms and standards, one of the most important of which was the 2006 constitutional referendum. Many international observers, experts and journalists certified this referendum and several subsequent presidential, parliamentary and local elections as democratic, free and fair. Dozens of political parties, media and NGOs function in Artsakh, and its market economy and national legislation meet international standards.

              With its objective of building a democratic state, the Mountainous Karabagh Republic is an established state, and deserves international recognition and membership in all international organizations,” the declaration reads.

              The document was signed by 29 PACE MPs representing 12 countries.

                  PACE adopts declaration confirming Karabakh has never been part of Azerbaijani Republic
                  January 27, 2011 - 21:02 AMT 17:02 GMT

                  PanARMENIAN.Net - The Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe (PACE) adopted a written declaration on NKR (Republic of Artsakh) that was submitted by member of Heritage parliamentary group of Armenia Zaruhi Postanjyan.

                  The document was signed by 30 members of PACE, including the Armenian delegation, the press service of Heritage party reported.

                  The declaration reads: “Azerbaijan declared itself the successor of the Azerbaijani Republic that existed from 1918-1920. But Mountainous Karabakh (Artsakh) was never a part of that state, and it was because of the Kemalist-Bolshevik “deal” that Artsakh had become a part of Soviet Azerbaijan.

                      of course Azeris are the native people that have been living in the Armenian highland for centuries and centuries. Armenians are just some exotic people created by Russians and brought by train in order to populate historic Azeri lands and take their ancient Christian culture, music, and alphabet.
