Re: Armenia and the information war
Is this a brainwashed nation?
Is this a nation in denial?
or is the truth is so hard to accept therefore consciously lying.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

Unfortunately, the civilised people that they oppressed, like us, could not really stop these hordes from establishing themselves. It's bit hard for a civilised people to win by force over a barbarian people.Մեկ Ազգ, Մեկ Մշակույթ

Writer Abdullah Issa: "We must fight for the heritage of Nizami as fighting over Nagorno-Karabakh"
03.06.2011 17:50
BAKU, June 3 - 1NEWS.AZ
Historical novel Abdullah Isa "Highlander", telling about the troubled times of the Caucasus for 20 years, has become one of the discussed works of the past few weeks.
In the book weaved the war in Chechnya, as described on the basis of real and hitherto unknown facts, and the mystical world of Nizami, embodied in his latest work "Iskandar-Nama" (History of Alexander of Macedon). In an interview 1news.az author explained why Nizami and the war in Chechnya had attracted his attention.
What's so we do not know about Nizami, that you have decided to raise his work in his book?
I also have no doubt about the nationality of Nizami and his great artistic heritage - Nizami brightest Azerbaijani poet of all time. But this fact is not universally shared. Especially some of our neighbors. If you go to link the poet in the English-language Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nezami_Ganjavi), then there will not find a single word about his belonging to the Azerbaijani people.
But someone has, nevertheless, managed to write that he "at least half of Persia," and that in Ganja those times lived basically "the Persians and melenkaya group of Christians" (not hard to guess what exactly is a "small group"). Or another example - this is the product of "Khosrow and Shirin» (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Khosrow_and_Shirin), where the width is specified as the Armenian queen. And why does this Armenian queen Turkish name, the editors of Wikipedia silent.
Slightly deviating from the topic I say that in English-language Wikipedia, which year are brutal battles between good harmonious Persian-Armenian users and small but excluded groups Azerbaijanis. I note especially two of our countrymen from the U.S. - Adil Bagirov and Javid Huseynov.
Wikipedia has a very complex internal regulations, when a few editors or users can write a complaint to another editor (user), and then simply block the offender. It is the favorite method of the Persian-Armenian group.
Instead of arguments, based on the facts supporting his point of view, our opponents simply write "collective letters of protest and try to block the work of Azerbaijani editors. If we consider that at one Azeri there are four or five of the Armenians and the Persians, it is not difficult to imagine passions seething in Wikipedia. With all this promotion of Azerbaijan on this page, though with difficulty, but it is going.
I am also impressed by the injustice that befell Nizami on the Internet, he decided to affect his work in his book. In addition, the Iskander-Nama, which I enjoyed very much resonates with today's realities - there is even a chapter where Abkhazians are coming and asking for help from Alexander of Macedonia from attacking Russian tribes from the north.
Why did you decide to raise it about war in Chechnya? Could write about and the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict.
I agree with you. But the Chechen issue, I dealt with the scientific point of view. Traveled weight Caucasus, met with a large number of Chechens, even one of the editors of this book, my friend - Arby Bagiev, a Chechen by nationality.
The more I dealt with this conflict, the more come to the conclusion that some unseen force deliberately distort the reality of this war, creating myths and fables, which, after skillfully uses. I had to figure out who and what makes these myths, and then try to destroy them. I think that with this task I accomplished.
But highlighted that "Highlander" is a book not about politics. I generally tried to avoid war and political analysis of the situation. It was simply not interested in me. In the matter of the war in Chechnya, there are many other interesting things - such as radical Islam came to the Caucasus, what goals he set for ourselves, and most interesting, as they sought, what were the interests of local clans, which in many cases used the Islamists. Also, a lot of book talked about the war in Chechnya itself, a little-known facts about those times that help to understand the mentality of mountain people, their actions in one or another tragic moment in the history of Chechnya.
Do you want to write a sequel, "Highlander"? Probably a lot of interesting facts that I would like to tell you about the Caucasus.
At the moment I decided to myself never to engage in writing books (laughs). It's hellish work. In order to write the book "Highlander", check and recheck the facts described there, it took me three years. During this time, people write a full dissertation.
One happy that I wrote about what seemed to me very important, what I wanted to share and tell all - of belonging Nizami Azerbaijan people and its rich literary heritage. I am confident that we have to fight for the heritage of Nizami, both fighting over Nagorno-Karabakh now. Nobody can accuse us of prishlosti to the Caucasus and backwardness.
All the evidence suggests that the Azerbaijani poet Nizami, who was born and lived his entire life in Ganja, in the heyday of Dynasty Atabekov created works of world-class. "It" and "backward" people can not give rise to the level of writers Nizami. This concerns our enemies. Besides interest in the Nizami with time only grows, because many of the facts described in the works of the poet, still surprised by his contemporaries. For example, he mentioned the rings of Saturn in the product "Khosrow and Shirin", although Galileo will open them to Europe, only 300 years later. Or the most recent example, a reference to Nizami in the global bestseller, Khaled Hosseini, "Kite Runner".
Another incentive was the fact that writing a book about Highland culture, the value of Highlanders and their traditions. I grew up among the mountaineers, and it was important to talk about these honest, brave and fair people.
One very good phrase has spurred me to write a "Highlander" - "Write a book if you have something to say" - a phrase from one of my favorite books, though, this book is not a product of fiction. I think that in terms of expression of all of that pent up, I carried out his plan 100 per cent.

UN agency slammed in Armenian Khachkar exhibit controversy
The French Bureau of Hay Dat has expressed its outrage over an incident at a UNESCO exhibit in Paris where the organizing party had removed the signs on photographs describing the original location of Armenian khachkars (cross-stones).
The exhibit called Khachkar Craftsmanship opened in the capital of France on June 15 as part of scientific conferences organized by UNESCO.
Visitors, including some prominent members of the local Armenian community, were embarrassed to see that information indicating the place of origin and location of khachkars featured in photographs at the display had been removed, with only dates remaining.
The organizers of the event had offered no explanation for the kind of censorship that had prompted vigorous protests from Armenian organizations of France and Switzerland against what they viewed as an attempt to deny the cultural heritage of Armenia.
In particular, in its statement Hay Dat described the UN agency’s behavior as “civilized vandalism”.
“The incident proves the involvement of Azerbaijan and Turkey. By bowing down to political pressure, UNESCO has stained its good name,” said Hay Dat’s French Bureau, as reported by PanArmenian.net.
Last November UNESCO listed Armenian khachkars as “intangible cultural heritage” amid Azerbaijan’s claims that khachkars are “not Armenian”.

"We urge the Baku police to investigate this appalling attack immediately," CPJ Deputy Director Robert Mahoney said. "Since robbery does not appear to be behind the assault, the authorities must consider journalism as a motive."
