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.

    Are Iranian-Armenians Iranian? What is Armenian Assimilation?

    INDEX: AFTER READING THIS, JUMP TO POSTS #15 through #18 TO SEE MY RESPONSES TO THE IN-BETWEEN COMMENTS BELOW - I QUOTED THE OTHER USERS; AND RESPONDED TO ON-TOPIC COMMENTS.

    I'll make sure you understand my position in a very detailed blog on the subject that will address family trees on both sides of the iron curtain; I won't fully attempt it on this thread, as several individuals don't like to use the quote button and run interference. I'll make sure to leave a link when I am done.

    By your own admission you've never been to Iran: How would you know what was "random" in Iran or not; what % of the population in your mind has to intermarry before it's no longer random; and what studies are you relying on?

    More important, while I respect Eddo, the truth matters.

    Yes, Iranian-Armenians (the ones that existed for centuries) tended to intermarry with other Iranians (including from a time predating Christianity and Islam and up to the present date); they were "insular" in the sense that they did not intermarry with Russians or other people from the Soviet Republics. In that sense Iranian-Armenians were "insular" and un-Russified for centuries.

    Iranian-Armenian Women:


    On the other hand, at the start of the 19th Century, Armenia/SSR started becoming a mixed both genetically and culturally (assimilated) - which moved the tiny population in Yerevan further and further away the original Armenian culture and gene pool.

    Quotes like yours below are contrary to what people have seen with the own eyes as women are trafficked into parts of Russia and Dubai from Yerevan.

    G-Rated Photo of some of the "Insular" propensities Armenians Fostered in Yerevan and Armenia-SSR:



    This above-type of assimilation and behavior is encouraged in Yerevan as thousands of Armenian women are trafficked to other countries to this day - some of which is encouraged by corrupt police officers with ties to the Russian mob. I promise you that Iran discourages Iranian-Armenian from assimilating in this manner; while prostitution is a problem everywhere, Iran hangs people that traffick in women and girls, and particularly shields Iranian-Armenian women from it in ways that Yerevan doesn't.

    When my blog is posted, I will also take you through the number of pogroms and rapes against the tiny Armenian population in Armenia-SSR and the effects, both genetically and culturally, and give Armenians a factually accurate portrayal of assimilation in Armenia-SSR. Iranian-Armenian women are discouraged from activities prevalent in Yerevan.

    "There have been women from Armenia in the United Arab Emirates ever since the early 1990's, when flights started between Yerevan and Dubai. ... "For the past two years, dealers in the sex trade have been transporting women under 31 to Dubai through Russia , mainly through Moscow and Krasnodar . There, they are given false passports, which state their age as over 31." (See U.N. Sub-Com. Report on Children’s Trafficking in Armenia.)

    But in public you write:

    Do you remember the qualities you were looking for in a Persian bride Moses? Let me refresh your memory.


    And I agree with you that you are "not very religious" though you pretend to be in your public posts to try to distract people from the issues.

    So, if "the Armenian Church is the most important part of Armenian identity," according to you, and if you are "not very religious," according to you, you're not very Armenian according to your own standards. And how "Armenian" are the rest of the people in Armenia according to Mos's standards?

    Originally posted by Mos View Post
    Not many people in Armenia are that religious, due to Soviet Union....
    Buyer Beware:

    Moses, while trafficking women and girls for porn and prostitution is a problem in every country, let me remind you how a Persian will deal with anyone that does that to OUR Persian-Armenian women.

    I would also ask Armenians to pay particular attention to people like Mos that attempt to pretend to be against assimilation while privately pushing the opposite agenda; and to beware of those who publicly pretend to be religious while pushing another agenda; and who spend their time online attempting to discredit the shared family-ties of people.

      Some Iranian-Armenians I have seen look more Iranian than Armenian

      It is clear there was some intermixing over the centuries

      Armenians were living in Iran before the forced exile from the Nakhichevan area to
      Nor Jugha (Isfahan) 400 years ago

        No, Armenians living in Iran are not ethnic Persian or any other Iranic group. I am speaking of the majority here, not the few exceptions that have come about via mixed marriages.
        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.

          Naghayr....kossoshare nagoo. (stop the bullsh1t). I am from Tehran (born and raised), my father from Esfehan, my mother from Abadan and trust me when I say the intermixing between us is very little. Both of our people don't take that route, again not that there is something wrong with that, but we just simply don't.

          Man I cannot figure you out. I asked you what is your real objective here in PM and didn't get an answer. I ask you again....what is your objective here as a Persian.

            Stopping posting in Persian or any other language then English or Armenian. You got no real proof of intermixing of the two people especially after the religion of both nations changed. Armenia left Persian influence for the first time when Alexander destroyed the Persian empire and from then till conquest by the Turks they have been going the same way as the Romans, after the Turkish conquest Cilicia became an Armenian kingdom with many European influences added to it. From the 19th century Persian influence has shrunk almost to zero thanks to Russian conquest of the region, you can see that in the fact that more Armenians live in Russia, visit Russia and speak Russian then live in Iran, visit Iran or speak Persian.




            By your own admission you've never been to Iran: How would you know what was "random" in Iran or not; what % of the population in your mind has to intermarry before it's no longer random; and what studies are you relying on?
            I hope you can provide some sources, and I mean real ones not pictures like you always do. By real sources, I mean sources that can be used for a scientific paper.







            Yes, Iranian-Armenians (the ones that existed for centuries) tended to intermarry with other Iranians (including from a time predating Christianity and Islam and up to the present date); they were "insular" in the sense that they did not intermarry with Russians or other people from the Soviet Republics. In that sense Iranian-Armenians were "insular" and un-Russified for centuries.
            No they didn't, how many marriages can there be between muslims and non-muslims? And if you look at times before Islam then it doesn't have any point in this discussion because the population in Iran today is the result of intermixing of many different races like Greeks, Turks, Mongols, Arabs, etc. because they all controlled the lands that are Iran today for centuries. In the Su republics intermixing of Armenians was really low because Armenians most of the time married inside their communities and Armenian stayed homogeneous during the soviet times for most part, the biggest minority were the Azeris.

            Iranian-Armenian Women:

            On the other hand, at the start of the 19th Century, Armenia-SSR started becoming a mixed both genetically and culturally (assimilated) - which moved the tiny population in Yerevan further and further away the original Armenian culture and gene pool.
            The Soviet union was created in the 20th century if you can not get this simple fact right how can you expect any one here too take you serious? Show me some proof of assimilation of the Armenian population during the SU times. Do you even know what assimilation means? What is the original Armenian culture? I can tell you it's not an Iranic culture, because culture is something that changes it isn't something static.

            Quotes like yours below are contrary to what people have seen with the own eyes as women are trafficked into parts of Russia and Dubai from Yerevan.
            Trafficking happens from every country, even through Iran and seeing how Iran is closer to Dubai you can expect to find more Iranian prostitutes there.

            Do you think it is normal that a person gets executed for owning a porn website? What right does your government have to decide these kind of things, if a man can own a porn site or not and execute a person for it.

            I would also ask Armenians to pay particular attention to people like Mos that attempt to pretend to be against assimilation while privately pushing the opposite agenda; and to beware of those who publicly pretend to be religious while pushing another agenda; and who spend their time online attempting to discredit the shared family-ties of people.
            I would advise Armenians to be on the look out for our real enemies most of the time they are hiding their true identity acting a friend but in reality are our real enemies.

                  They haven't been constant, there was periods of excess, periods of recess and periods of prohibition . Empires rise and fall.

                    By constant I meant that they always existed and always will, like now in most countries prostitution is illegal but you know for sure in every country you'll find some.
