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.

                Turkish-Russian tension spills into South Caucasus

                December 27,2015
                The South Caucasus has emerged as yet another arena for muscle-flexing and a tug-of-war between Turkey and Russia, two countries whose relations have sunk into mutual hostility but are still short of actual war, with the region seeing a revival of a frozen conflict and a shifting of regional alignments last week.
                In addition to Syria, Ankara and Moscow seem set to face off in the troubled South Caucasus, with the dispute between them leaving its impact across the region.
                Relations between Turkey and Russia took a hit after the Turkish Air Forces (THK) shot down a Russian warplane near the Syrian border in late November. Since then, the decades-old conflict between Azerbaijan and Armenia over Nagorno-Karabakh has escalated, with Azerbaijan firing from tanks for the first time since the early 1990s. Last week, Yerevan announced that the cease-fire, which technically halted fighting in 1994, if not totally erasing clashes, is no longer in effect.
                It is noteworthy that the armed clashes over the mountainous enclave gathered new pace immediately after Turkish Prime Minister Ahmet Davutoğlu's visit to Azerbaijani capital Baku earlier in December. Last week also saw a number of meetings between regional actors. The Turkish, Georgian and Azerbaijani defense ministers held a meeting in Turkey to discuss cooperation against regional threats. Then Russian and Armenian defense ministers signed a treaty on Wednesday to create a joint regional air defense system. The main target of the cooperation was no secret.
                A Russian military official told the pro-Moscow Sputnik news agency at the time the treaty is aimed against Turkey. "In my opinion, this decision is connected with the events in Turkey. Today, aviation plays a major role in combat. Turkey is a NATO member and there are US aircraft present in Turkish airfields. There is a need for a more secure system that can keep the air borders protected and this requires joint efforts," Sputnik quoted the former deputy commander of Russia's Air Defense Forces, Lt. Gen. Alexander Luzan, as saying.
                Russia has already sent more than a dozen new aircraft, including advanced attack helicopters and military transport planes, to its base near Yerevan.
                Defense officials in Ankara told Today's Zaman that it is only a matter of time before the tension over Nagorno-Karabakh relapses into war. Watching events there with wary eyes, Turkish officials believe that Russia has deliberately brought the tension with Turkey over the jet dispute to the region, opening a new theater to place additional pressure on Turkey.
                Speaking to Today's Zaman, Assistant Professor Fatih Özbay, a Russia expert at İstanbul Technical University, said Russia is sending a signal to Turkey and Azerbaijan through Armenia by arming Yerevan. For him, Russia is evidently pursuing a policy of containment against Turkey in many regions by escalating the geographical scope of the tension. "The Russia-Turkey dispute has already gone beyond the Syrian theater. Turkey now faces a strategy of containment from Crimea to the Caucasus, from Iran to Syria and the east Mediterranean. The jet crisis has only served as a pretext; it accelerated the process," he said.
                According to Özbay, Russia is drawing the lines of its geopolitical sphere of influence in these regions against NATO and the West. Özbay, who lived in Moscow for several years, also said Russia is seeking an opportunity to take revenge for its jet that was downed by Turkey and is looking for opportunities for tit-for-tat reprisals. "Armenia's defense is entirely deferred to Russia and Russian soldiers. Russia, thirsty for revenge, will not hesitate to shoot any Turkish warplane that accidentally enters Armenian airspace," he said.

                      Bayram Safarov: Deep in heart, Armenians in Karabakh think of themselves as Azerbaijani citizens



                      Baku. Etibar Mammadov – APA. Deep inside their hearts, the Armenians in Karabakh think of themselves as Azerbaijani citizens but they are unable to utter it out of fear, chairman of the Public "Azerbaijani Community of Nagorno-Karabakh region", head of the Shusha district executive authority Bayram Safarov told reporters on Dec.28.

                      Safarov said the Azerbaijani community of Nagorno-Karabakh and the Armenian side always seek to have a meeting but the current Armenian government does not provide necessary conditions for them to meet.

                      According to Safarov, ordinary Armenians know that if they become Azerbaijani citizens, they will be given all kind of concessions and live in prosperity like other ethnic minorities.

                      “To avoid getting into trouble in such a situation, the Armenian government does not create necessary conditions for their meeting. They know that if Armenians should meet with us and see the blissful life in Azerbaijan, they will start change sides,” he said.
