Armenia and the information war

Re: Armenia and the information war

Indeed it should be Turkey apologizing and not Armenia because we only want what rightfully already belongs to us. Besides, Sargsyan's answer was quite vague and does not openly lay claims to Western Armenia. Good for us, though, if Turkey saw it that way...

However, I think that the question asked by that child (as well as Sargsyan's vague answer) was elaborated prior to the event and was asked intentionally in order to bring up the issue and irritate the Turks.

But we should indeed be working to get back Western Armenia, along with Javakh and Naxijevan. Karabakh is only the begining. We cannot let innocence cost us the rest of our lands.

I think more doable than W. Armenia is getting a land link with Russia thru another war with azerbaijan. Of course it will be the azeris to re start the war, and once we win we can keep the land link.

Cut foreign aid to Armenia and other countries that work against United States

I am an American who is concerned about our debt and excessive spending, such as on foreign aid to nations that work against us and kill our soldiers. Since the Senate and House Appropriations committees are considering the FY2012 foreign aid bill, with the House Appropriations Committee set to vote on the bill on August 3, I would like to re-state my views on this as I did a few months ago when the FY2012 appropriations process just started.

We need to reduce spending by all means possible, especially to places that work against U.S., such as Armenia. It should get less aid, since it sold weapons to Iran and Iraq, which resulted in a U.S. soldier Matthew Straughter killed and 3 other U.S. soldiers wounded. Same goes for the Armenia-occupied Nagorno-Karabagh region, which should not get any aid at all — that's a total waste of money, especially considering that it is used for illegal drug and arms trade by Armenia and Iran. At the same time I urge to sustain funding to Azerbaijan, which is a steadfast ally helping U.S. interests in the region and the Muslim world.

We need to spend less, and spend wisely, helping only true friends, not rewarding hostiles. Foreign aid should be based on our national interests and be need-based. We should never send aid to illegal junta's like Nagorno-Karabagh regime, which only perpetuates war.

Most likely an Azeri or Turk this writer. Any "American" should know that US was funding their current enemies with money and lots of weapons. Much more American soldiers have died because of American weapons than any other most likely

Where was America when we were fighting Mujahadeen connected with al-Qaeda during Karabakh War? How about the fact that Armenia has around 100 troops in Afghanistan, has sent troops to Iraq, and Kosovo? I'm not saying Armenia is a US ally, but definetly is not an enemy. Though saying Azerbaijan is a US ally is laughable.

Would that "win" be like the sort of "win" you specialise in - i.e. starting an argument you can't win because you don't know the facts and don't care about knowing them, then loosing the argument, then throwing a tantrum (complete with racist insults), and then getting banned. I hope not.

You seem entirely clueless. The Armenian population of Nagorno-Karabagh did not start fighting to gain territory from Azerbaijan, and the NK republic does not exist to expand and occupy Azeri territory - it exists to safeguard its own territory and guarantee the survival of its own population. Nobody should wish for war or think a victory in a war is inevitable.

He just needs to be told that the Baltimore Sun should learn the difference between "news" and "letters with opinions" and "opinionated letters sent from crazies". It should properly distinguish and separate the first from the second, and make better efforts not to publish the third!

Re: Armenia and the information war

No, that kind of “win” would be the kind that we (Armenians) already proved. We have proved who are the BS’ers and who are the winners, and if it is necessary we are ready to prove it again.

I think the poster who has lost the most arguments and tucked his tail in between his legs is you. Multiple times you have been discredited and called out by posters here and yet you act as if you are the all knowing one.

Get a clue about geopolitics before you post.

No but they finished with liberating more of their territories, and if Azeris want to go at it again then what do you think is going to happen, until when are Armenians to tolerate this situation.

and the NK republic does not exist to expand and occupy Azeri territory.

President Sarkisian said powers of the State can reach beyond its territory......and those lands belong to Armenia and Iran, Turkic Azeris are the occupires.
