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.

  • Re: Armenia and the information war

    I think that the attempted appointment of Acemoglu as ambassador to France is part of a continued campaign by the Turkish government to weaken Diaspora Armenians because he would then have to follow the Turkish line according to which the genocide did not take place.

    Kobe Bryant's appointment as the Turkish Airline's "Global Brand Ambassador" was also a step in that direction, as well as what happened in Argentina during the summer of 2010... What else do they have in mind?

      True. An important diplomatic post in France would usually go to a senior member of the diplomatic staff from any country, someone fluent in French, knows the country, has been in the diplomatic corps for years, etc. It is simply a ruse to create division amongst Armenians, for the Turks to make a weak display (and very transparent) of plurality. This is indeed a strategy to quash the genocide and nothing more.

        and maybe that's why he rejected the offer.

          So far I've heard that he rejected being Turkish Ambassador to the OECD but its unclear whether he has accepted being Ambassador to France or not.

            UAE/Saudi + Azerbaijan:

            Azerbaijan to establish ties with UAE to counter Armenia/Iran ties. UAE opening embassy in Azerbaijan (UAE = another US puppet.)
            "UAE official bodies informed about Khojaly tragedy" http://en.trend.az/news/karabakh/1833844.html

            * I suggest making anti-UAE and anti-Saudi videos, exposing their dirty laundry.

            * Also videos should be made for the Arab world pressing the case that Azerbaijan is not really a Muslim country; it supports Attaturk, Israel, and Palestinian occupation.
            ______________________________

            Azerbaijan: "This is the Armenian armed forces that shot down an Iranian plane with civilians on board and they are still shamefully silent about this." (Intended for domestic Iranian audience.)

              Armenia has an embassy in the uae.

              I do like the idea of making a video for the Arab world to show them that azerbaijan is a fake Muslim country.
              For the first time in more than 600 years, Armenia is free and independent, and we are therefore obligated
              to place our national interests ahead of our personal gains or aspirations.

                We also have to remember that France is a country where they recently made denying the Armenian genocide a crime. So is he really going to deny it, or does Turkey have other things in mind by appointing him there? I think a lot of this is for PR, "how can we be racist towards Armenians when one of our ambassadors is Armenian?" type of crap. I'm guessing they will also use him as a tool to better understand the Armenian community of France (one of the biggest diaspora communities) and maybe even make him do things to create a rift in the Armenian community.

                The kobe bryant thing was a slap in the face of Armenians in LA. Now we have France. What happened in Argentina in 2010... are you referring to the ataturk statue?

                Anyways, it seems like they are openly going after our diaspora communities.

                  No problem with Armenia's UAE embassy (totally normal), but Aliyev is using his embassy to show the Arabs that "Armenians kill muslims." So, I think it's important to portray Aliyev as a non-muslim, Attaturk-alchaholic, corrupt dictator, that kisses Israel's a**, and traffics in women. You, know: The good stuff. (One of the problems with the UAE though is they traffic in Armenian women - there was a documentary about it. Their governement is basically full of "cocaine-arabs.")

                    Yeah, but some of the Arab states are actually on okay terms with Israel because they are more afraid of Iran, and thus they can find a friend in Azerbaijan. Saudi Arabia for example, if you read about them from the Wikileaks.
