Re: Come and please answer about Turks in Iran

Simple answer: Ultra nationalism has not infected the minds of the Azeris, Persians Kurds and Armenians that live in Iran. Nationalism perhaps has. What I refer to as ultra nationalism refers to blind hatred or prejudice against those with a different culture, language religion or ethnicity. The people in this region are all closely related in all aspects. You're surprised they all get along. Well a normal human being should ask why they don't.

They speak a dialect of Azeri. The differences from that spoken are probably less than between Western and Eastern Armenian dialects. As for their origins. Well lets put it this way, the Turks of Turkey and the Azeri Turks in Iran and Azerbaijan are ethnically most closely related to neighbouring peoples. Greeks, Kurds and Armenians for the Turks, Persians, Armenians, Kurds and other Caucasian peoples for the Azeris. Does their ethnic heritage matter? No. Did it make a blind bit of difference when the Turks killed hundreds of thousands of Armenians and when the Azeris and Armenians went to war?

Its always easier to hate someone eh.

You seem to be pretty much reviving a really old thread aka gravedigging. But there are lots of language, religious and ethnic differences between Armenian's, Greek's and the Mongolian and Asiatic origins of the Turk's-Azeri's.

Simply because Turk's-Azeri's may have interbred with people's that existed within the Ottoman Empire doesn't make them Armenian's and Greek's. So if you are trying to say all Turk's-Azeri's are effectively the same as Armenian's and Greek's it makes no sense at all, its like trying to claim all American Indian's are the same as white American's because they interbred. Sorry but doesn't work.....
