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

    Ordinary Azerbaijanis unwilling to war against Armenia


    Most of Azerbaijani youth expressed readiness for war, but said at the same time they wouldn’t like to fight and wished for the peaceful settlement of the Nagorno Karabakh conflict instead. Meanwhile, adults said they don’t want the resumption of military operations against Armenians whatsoever, Minval.az reports.

    The website posted a video, in which Musavat.com representatives conducted a survey among residents of Baku to find out public opinion on the issue.

    In response to a question on whether Azerbaijani armed forces will be able to “return Karabakh land,” a young Baku resident said: “We are not ready for war, as the society is psychologically unprepared.”

    Another young man said that even if Azerbaijan is ready for war, the parties must still resolve the issue peacefully. Another respondent expressed a similar view, adding that there would be no war, with the situation remaining unchanged.

    Thus, only one out of 6 respondents expressed confidence and willingness to fight.

      Baku statement on EEU membership: a threat or a warning?


      Perhaps someday Azerbaijan may try to use the Eurasian Economic Union (EEU) as a tool for the so-called “resolution” of Karabakh conflict.
      Azeri Foreign Minister Elmar Mammadyarov’s statement on the country’s possible accession to the EEU has been much discussed by regional experts.
      It is fair to note that this wasn’t the first statement of the kind: the issue of Azerbaijan’s EEU membership has been raised occasionally, however not going beyond empty words. Opinions on the country's accession to the Union vary even inside Azerbaijan.

      From an economic point of view, as noted by some Azerbaijani experts, EEU membership is not really profitable. They stress, in particular, the energy sector: oil and gas make up the lion's share in Azerbaijani exports, while the Union membership suggests that the country will not be able to independently manage its resources. As an EEU member, Baku will have to coordinate importers of Azeri energy resources, as well as the pricing policy with all of the Union.

      Moreover, as of 2014, the CIS countries accounted for only 10% of foreign trade turnover in Azerbaijan, while the membership is unlikely to bring positive changes to Azerbaijan.

      Most of those familiar with the matter agree that the Nagorno Karabakh conflict is the main issue that could push the country into the Union.

      Perhaps someday Azerbaijan may try to use the Eurasian Economic Union (EEU) as a tool for the so-called "resolution" of Karabakh conflict. And current membership statements serve as warnings.

      Thus, the country's EEU membership could lead to complete failure of peace talks on Karabakh, since, according to the existing opinion, Baku will join the Union only with Karabakh, which is de jure considered a part of Azerbaijan, while Armenia will have to ratify the treaty, recognizing "the territorial integrity" of Azerbaijan.

      According to another version, Baku may agree to join the EEU, if Russia pledges to hand over seven Nagorno Karabakh regions, liberated from Azerbaijani occupation, to Baku. This version, however, does not seem to be realistic, as Moscow would thus spoil relations with Armenia, its only strategic partner in the South Caucasus at the moment.

      Announcements on Azerbaijan’s EEU membership may turn out to be an attempt to "frighten" Armenia, especially given recent developments around the Karabakh conflict, with Azerbaijan deliberately going too far in escalating the situation.

      However, as stated by Armenia's Foreign Minister Edward Nalbandian, possible Azeri EEU membership has not been discussed.

      Therefore, we can assume that the Azerbaijani statements were merely rhetorical and will remain so for at least 5-10 years.

      On the other hand, Armenia's right of veto as a member of the Eurasian Economic Union has not been canceled.

                You can download them and then upload them to your youtube account.
                If you do not have a youtube account then you can create one for free.
                If you have a gmail account then you can use same user-name and password and your youtube account is ready for you.

                .
                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
