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: Nagorno-Karabagh: Military Balance Between Armenia & Azerbaijan

    I can see the comparison between the countries you listed and Armenia's neighbors but they are far from the truth. True, Ecuador fought a brief war with Peru in 1996, and today Correa and uribe are on opposite ends of the political spectrum, but as I have said before, Latin America, and especially the northern Andes nations/ Gran Colombia nations are essentially the same people and if it were not for internal strife after independence all would have been one nation.

    Armenia has two genocidal nations, and only thru rape are either people somewhat related to us by blood. Otherwise the very simple facts they are not Christian, don't speak Armenian, and have tried to wipe us out, makes any comparison with Ecuador's situation weak at best.

    One thing Armenia has been better at in the past 10-12 years is internal political stability. Ecuador had had, until Correa, multiple presidents in a 12 year span.
    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.

      Ecuador has fought a lot of wars with Peru, deadly civilian skirmishes at the Colombian border are daily that's why is heavily militarized, since 1942 Ecuador has been xxxxed non-stop by every government and since 1996 no government has finished its rule (and Correa is going through the same path, he's actually screaming for it).

      As for the other part, you're right, sorry I had to do something and I couldn't edit my post or put it more precisely explained, the comparison with Turkey and Azerbaijan is at a political basis, historically, culturally, etc. there are huge differences between Armenia and Ecuador as you mentioned, I just wanted to geographically make a comparison.

      The thing is both are countries with similarities when it comes to a social, economical, etc. ground, but of course there are major and very important differences which we all know, my point was to explain why I think government's in poor countries don't do nothing. Nothing else.

        I figured as much. I also remember reading that Ecuador used to share a border with Brazil, until it fought a war with Peru in the late 1800s or early 1900s. Anyway, I support Ecuador over Peru and Colombia.

          The territory of what is know Ecuador has suffered a large number of territorial changes, always getting smaller. What is ironic and plays a large role on the national nostalgia, is that it is the glory of the people and the territory of what is know Ecuador the discovery of the Amazon river, yet it is the only country in the region that has no connection to it.

          Anyways, thanks Armanen jan

            January 2010. Armenian Defense Minister S. Ohanian and chief of General Staff Yuri Khachaturov send Armenian peacekeepers in Germany to prepare for the mission in Afghanistan. February 14, these guys came to Afghanistan.

                  I didn't think there was any peace out there to keep!
                  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

                    Armenian troops praised for good service while on Afghan mission



                    The small Armenian contingent deployed in Afghanistan has earned praise from immediate German commanders for effective service and exhibited initiative in protecting strategic facilities in a troubled Afghan city, according to a report by the Armenian Defense Ministry.

                    A 40-strong Armenian peacekeeping brigade has been on mission to help NATO-led allied forces fight Taliban insurgency in Afghanistan since February 14. The Armenian detachment is tasked with ensuring the security of the strategically important airport of Kunduz. The everyday service of the Armenian personnel, reporting to German command, includes patrolling in the airport and surrounding area, guarding the posts, as well as detecting possible threats.

                    “In the past three weeks the group has received the high evaluation of the German command for showing high effectiveness in the extra safety means undertaken in the area of the airport upon their own initiative,” the Armenian ministry (www.mil.am) said.
