You also may not:
- post images that are too large (max is 500*500px)

- post in UPPER CASE, which is considered yelling
- post messages which insult the Armenians, Armenian culture, traditions, etc

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.

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.

      Idiots can't even properly fly a flag

      Flag of Azerbaijan in Baku torn by wind for the 4th time
      March 24, 2011 - 18:54 AMT 14:54 GMT

      PanARMENIAN.Net - The flag of Azerbaijan, erected on the State Flag Square in Baku, was torn by a blast of wind.

      The police have cordoned off the square and adjacent streets while structures in charge were removing the torn flag.

      This has been the 4th incident on the Square since the opening day on September 1, 2010. The faktxeber.com cites the wrong choice of the Square location as the reason for the incidents.

        Have you ever thought what would happen if Armenia organized 1 million mailings of that pic (or something like it) sent from another country (e.g. sent from the U.S.) to random addresses in Azerbaijan once a year? (AZ = 6-7 mil. population; Muslim country) First thing that would happen is that it would send the AZ mail system into chaos as they tried to retrieve every single one of the mailings. Second thing that would happen is that the AZ citizens would start to accept that it's OK to criticize Aliyev. Have you thought about handing flyers to Iranian tourists to educate them on Pan-Turkic policies? The plight of the Talysh? The historical friendship with Armenia?

        I am protected by a huge and powerful military - we're not scared of the Azerbaboons. I respectfully suggest, that Armenians need to come together and undertake serious projects before they lose the information war.

          Today.Az » Voice of Diaspora » Azerbaijani Diaspora in US: "Armenian Metzamor Nuclear Power Plant is a source of threat"

          24 March 2011 [15:18] - Today.Az



          The Azerbaijani Diaspora in the US raised concern over Armenian Metzamor Nuclear Power Plant. The Diaspora has started a new campaign by sending the letters to the US Congress members in order to dismantle the plant.

          "The recent earthquake in Japan has shown vividly the inherent dangers of nuclear power plants in seismically-active areas. If Japan was caught off-guard, then what is to say of reckless third world nations? The Metzamor Nuclear Power Plant was built during the 1970s, about 20 miles west of the Armenian capital of Yerevan in the city of Metzamor. The plant was constructed with two VVER-440 Model V230 nuclear reactors", reminds the Diaspora.

          "The guaranteed resource potential of the working Armenian nuclear power plant will be exhausted by 2016".

          According to the authors, the design of the Metzamor plant is much the same as those which the European Union insisted be shut down before Bulgaria and Slovakia joined the EU.

          "Metzamor is located in the area which has 11-magnitude earthquake risk. It was built to withstand only 9-magnitude earthquake. After the devastating earthquake in Armenia in 1988, the authorities decided to close it, which is a proof that even the Armenian powers of that period realized the threat of Metzamor nuke plant in case of force majeure and natural cataclysms", they noted.

          "Although the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe documents expressed concerns more than once, that this nuke station situated in the seismically active zone is a source of serious danger for all of the Caucasus region unfortunately, the plant is still operational", the Diaspora reminds.

          "The U.S. Congress and Government must make all foreign aid to Armenia conditional to the immediate closing of the Metzamor nuke plant this year", suggest the Diaspora.

            Azerbaijani Consul General to Saint Petersburg is a pedophile? (video)
            March 25, 2011 | 00:12

            A scandal broke out at the concert organized by the Azerbaijani community of St. Petersburg on the occasion of Nowruz holiday on March 19.

            Azerbaijani Consul General to Saint Petersburg Gudsi Osmanov was accused of child abuse in front of spectators during the concert.

            When Osmanov took to the stage to deliver a congratulatory speech, a man stood in the hall with a loudspeaker in his hand and shouted: “He must not be allowed to make a speech! He is a man of no scruples. He has no moral right to be called Azerbaijani!”

            The man said that Azerbaijan’s Consul General raped a certain underage Aybeniz. A girl sitting next to him took the loudspeaker and accused the Azerbaijani Consul General of pedophilia. She confirmed that Osmanov had raped her in her childhood. Later, she turned out to be the girl, the man was speaking of.

            “This villain, hiding behind public office and the Azerbaijani flag, destroys lives of girls. I am not the only victim of this pedophile. There are dozens of them. I appeal to all parents to keep their children away from this villain!” she cried.

                  azeris are taking Israeli journalists to azerbaijan and will show them guba, where they discovered a mass grave and claim Armenians massacred mountain J ews. Armenia has to act on this and prevent the journalists from going to azerbaijan and being deceived by those idiotic claims. Armenia has also asked why azerbaijan doesnt do tests to find out the nationality of the deceased?


                  The Armenians: the Israelis will become victims of fraud Azerbaijan
                  The tour group of Israeli journalists in Azerbaijan, which is scheduled for next week, has caused a surge of negative emotions among their Armenian counterparts and officials. According to them, in Azerbaijan are preparing a provocation, "the Israelis" will fall victim to a big scam carried out by the Azerbaijan Republic on the state level. "

                  As already reported portal IzRus, 27 March a group of Israeli journalists to visit Azerbaijan to become familiar with the history of xxxs in the South Caucasus republic. The organizers of the trip, which lasts 5 days, by the World Azerbaijani Congress, based in the United States and the Federal National Cultural Autonomy of Azerbaijanis in Russia (NCFA Azerros). Israelis will tell about the xxxish history of Azerbaijan and read the documents testifying to the events of March and May 1918, when, according to Azerbaijani historians, Armenian forces were perfect anti-xxxish pogroms. In 2007, during construction of the stadium in the town of Cuba, were discovered mass graves of the Mountain xxxs were killed in May 1918.

                  "The Bolsheviks came to the Caucasus, first chopped with axes of all Armenian generals and members of the formation of ARF," - said in an interview with the portal IzRus historian Artem Chernamoryan, one of the most active leaders of the community of immigrants from Armenia in Israel. - Later themselves Azeris slaughtered Armenians and xxxs, and now Israeli journalists will tell the complete nonsense, and they're not owning materiel become members of provocation. " His support and Dr. Georgette Avagyan, a spokeswoman for the Armenian National Committee (Hay Dat) in Israel: "That's ridiculous!" Dashnaks "never cooperated with the Bolsheviks, they hated them!"

                  Who is buried in Cuba?

                  Journalist Levon Melik-Shahnazaryan offers a "back four years ago, in spring 2007, after mentioning that before this period, Azerbaijan's President Ilham Aliyev issued a decree as much as 4, which demanded that the Azerbaijani scientists to reveal the facts of genocide of Azerbaijanis ... April 11, 2007 Aliyev, the requirement was satisfied: the scientists "found" in Cuba, two mass graves in which, according to various sources, were found the remains of over two hundred people - he wrote on an internet resource Voskanapat, arguing that the "burial in Cuba were" found "to" prove "the genocide of Azerbaijanis by Armenians. It is in this perspective, exploited in domestic propaganda in Azerbaijan. In this case, sometimes, in order to embroil Armenians for centuries living in Cuba Lezgins, published some materials, claiming that the Cuban burial buried dead Caucasian Armenians by Turks and Lezgins. However, outside the Republic of Azerbaijani propaganda prefer to talk about the mass murder of xxxs .... And even published a book on the subject. Apparently, the authors of the "bright" idea felt that the mass murder of Caucasian Turks less significant crime than mass murder of xxxs. "

                  Melik-Shahnazaryan says that the version of the membership found the remains of xxxs do not support, and many of Azerbaijani scientists. "These documents prove us that the xxxs of Cuba during these events are not affected. The events of March is our tragedy, and the use of lies in covering them is unacceptable," - he quotes a staff member of ANAS, doctor of historical sciences Solmaz Rustamov-Togidi. April 18, 2007 in the press made ​​and NAS President Mahmud Kerimov, who stated that "The remains, found in Cuba, may be the result, as the mass extermination of people, and the mass of the epidemic." The journalist claims that "Azerbaijan has transformed burial in Cuba, a place of pilgrimage and leads there" tourists, "imposing on them a picture of" the atrocities of the Armenians. "However, to date not identified any age graves, nor cause death, nor, of course, the nationality of the deceased .

                  Georgette Avagyan disappointed that is sent to Azerbaijan delegation of historians and experts, and traditional journalists are poorly versed in the realities of the South Caucasus. "I'm surprised to be honest. Why should the same Oren Nahari travel to Azerbaijan? As a journalist, he should not take one side or another ... I hope they then become acquainted with the writings of Armenian historians, hear, and the second side," - she said Portal IzRus.

                      OSCE MG report on Karabakh: Where did MFA find a disproof to Azeri misinformation?
                      March 28, 2011 - 20:54 AMT 15:54 GMT
                      PanARMENIAN.Net - The report of OSCE Minsk Group co-chairs' Field Assessment Mission on the situation in Karabakh-adjacent territories one again refuted misinformation disseminated through Azerbaijani propaganda, Armenian Foreign Ministry spokesman Tigran Balayan sated.

                      As he noted, Armenia shares in the OSCE MG co-chars view point on the fact that “only a peaceful, negotiated settlement can bring the prospect of a better, more certain future.” Balayan also added that a visit of the co-chairs to the northern part of Martakert region, eastern part of Martuni region and Shahumyan region is expected, with co-chairs planning to draw up a relevant report on the situation in territories indicated.

                      The OSCE MG co-chairs presented a report of the OSCE Minsk Group co-chairs' Field Assessment Mission to territories surrounding Nagorno-Karabakh to OSCE Secretary General. The report testifies to the fact that OSCE representatives in charge of field assessment “failed to notice” the actively developing infrastructure of Artsakh as well as the development of economic, cultural and social sectors.

                      According to OSCE official website, the report says, “In traveling more than 1,000 kilometers throughout the territories, the Co-Chairs saw stark evidence of the disastrous consequences of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict and the failure to reach a peaceful settlement. Towns and villages that existed before the conflict are abandoned and almost entirely in ruins. While no reliable figures exist, the overall population is roughly estimated as 14,000 persons, living in small settlements and in the towns of Lachin and Kelbajar. The Co-Chairs assess that there has been no significant growth in the population since 2005. The settlers, for the most part ethnic Armenians who were relocated to the territories from elsewhere in Azerbaijan, live in precarious conditions, with poor infrastructure, little economic activity, and limited access to public services. Many lack identity documents. For administrative purposes, the seven territories, the former NK Oblast, and other areas have been incorporated into eight new districts.”

                      As the co-chairs believe, “the harsh reality of the situation in the territories has reinforced the view of the Co-Chairs that the status quo is unacceptable, and that only a peaceful, negotiated settlement can bring the prospect of a better, more certain future to the people who used to live in the territories and those who live there now.”

                      The Co-Chairs urge the leaders of all the parties "to avoid any activities in the territories and other disputed areas that would prejudice a final settlement or change the character of these areas." They also recommend that "measures be taken to preserve cemeteries and places of worship in the territories and to clarify the status of settlers who lack identity documents." The Co-Chairs intend "to undertake further missions to other areas affected by the NK conflict, and to include in such missions experts from relevant international agencies that would be involved in implementing a peace settlement."
