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.

  • Young Turks (CUP)



    Great site about the Young Turks (CUP). For those of you who read/understand Spanish or French, this is a very good site.

    Young Turks | Jabotinsky and Parvus



    Source: The Life and Times of Vladimir Jabotinsky: Rebel and statesman By Joseph B. Schechtman

    London’s ‘Young Turks’: Jabotinsky and Parvus

    In supporting London’s “Young Turk” plot against Turkey today, our modern Jabotinskyites are acting totally lawfully. For Vladimir Jabotinsky’s career included joining with his fellow British agent, Alexander Helphand (aka Parvus), in the Young Turk movement at the beginning of the 20th Century. Jabotinsky (1880-1940) who traveled widely all over Russia and Europe - lobbying for the Zionist cause in Constantinople following the Young Turk revolution - advocating unrelenting international political activity along with ongoing J3wish settlement in Palestine. While in power, the Young Turks ran several newspapers, including The Young Turk. The paper was owned by a member of the Turkish cabinet, but it was funded by the Russian Zionist federation, and managed by B'nai B'rith. The editorial policy of the paper was overseen by a Dutch Zionist named Jacob Kann, who was the personal banker of the king and queen of the Netherlands. and Parvus (1867-1924) came from Odessa families based in the grain trade.

    While Helphand/Parvus began his political career in the Okhrana-spawned Russian socialist scene, where he played the role of a radical provocateur, he escaped the subsequent police crackdown and ended up in Turkey in 1908. At this point Parvus’s ties to the leading European “Venetian Party” factions would be publicly shown. Parvus went to work as a journalist for the Committee for Union and Progress, otherwise known as the Young Turks, who had carried out a military coup, overthrowing the Sultan and seizing power over the Ottoman Empire. By their own accounts,the Young Turks based their revolution on a version of Pan-Turkism that had been devised by an advisor to the Sultan in the 1860s who was, in fact, an agent of Britain’s Lord Palmerston. Parvus’s Young Turk interlude earned him a large fortune. He had partnered with Young Turk financier and Macedonia Risorta Lodge founder Emmanuel Carasso, and had been given the contract to supply grain to the Turks during the Balkan wars of 1912- 13. According to some accounts, Parvus also got into the tightly controlled arms business, probably under the patronage of Sir Basil Zaharoff of the Vickers Arms cartel, a prominent Anglo-Venetian enterprise.

    The Young Turks, in power, made no secret of their London ties. In 1909 the Ottoman Navy was put under the command of a British admiral; the British Royal Family’s own banker, Ernst Cassel[1], established and managed the National Bank of Turkey; and British officials advised the Ministry of Finance, the Interior Ministry, and the Ministry of Justice.

    With the outbreak of the World War I in 1914, Jabotinsky found himself in disagreement over strategy with prevailing opinion within the Zionist camp. Unconvinced that the Turks or the Arabs would accommodate the aims of Zionism, he advocated bolder tactics. As he was convinced of an ultimate Allied victory, Jabotinsky, together with Joseph Trumpeldor, called for the establishment of a J3wish fighting force to join the Allies in liberating Palestine from Ottoman rule. Thus they could earn a place at the peace table, with the right to demand establishment of an independent J3wish state in Palestine.

    After the Young Turks were defeated by Turkish nationalist leader Kemal Ataturk, seasoned British agents Jabotinsky and Parvus were available to deploy elsewhere.

    [1] Sir Ernest Joseph Cassel, (3 March 1852 – 21 September 1921)[1] was a British merchant banker and capitalist.

    Born in Cologne, Germany, Cassel was J3wish. His father Jacob Cassel owned a small bank, but the son Ernest arrived penniless in Liverpool, England in 1869. There he found employment with a firm of grain merchants. With an enormous capacity for hard work and a natural business sense, Cassel was soon in Paris working for a bank. The Franco-Prussian War forced him to move to a position in a London bank, as he was born in Prussia.

    He prospered and was soon putting together his own financial deals. His areas of interest were in mining, infrastructure and heavy industry. Turkey was an early area of business ventures, but he soon had large interests in Sweden, the United States, South America, South Africa, and Egypt.

    One of the wealthiest men of his day, Cassel was a good friend of King Edward VII, prime minister Herbert Asquith and Winston Churchill. Awards received in thanks for services to foreign governments included the Grand Cordon of the Imperial Ottoman Order of Osmanieh in 1903

      "The Five minute standstill" is how it is labeled in a book on Turkey.
      It mentions Ataturk's picture in any office. 10th of November, date of his passing, the people there remember and stop what they are doing at 9.05am.


      No kidding, reminds me of the Soviet era when besides Marx and Engles,
      there was Lenin, then each successive leader had his photo up on the wall with the "demigods" of the country in every classroom. In the Soviet Union the people lined up to visit the tomb of Lenin.

      The motto: "do not put all your faith in one man-for surely you will be disappointed."

      the other line: "it takes 40 million Frenchmen..." yeah, and recall what Napoleon did for them at Waterloo!

      Doesn't sound like a westernized nation. Reminds me of Nassir's funeral procession in Egypt.

      Worship of any man is not healthy for a nation.

        I can't take serious any book that continuously uses the phrase "Young Turk" in this way. "Young Turks" was a label applied by foreigners. There was no "Young Turk Party" it was the İttihat ve Terakki Cemiyeti ("Committee of Union and Progress" or C.U.P.) . It is like writing a book about the Russian Revolution and never using the word Bolshevik, but instead always calling them "Reds" and "Commies".

          Actually there is just as much (and probably far more) peer-pressure-enforced mass conformity in America and Europe. I dare anyone to have the courage to stand up to the various 9/11 collective silences and their associated propaganda, or the militaristic dogma that is seen in Britain in the recent political hijacking and enforced 5-minute standstills associated with "Rememberence Day" commemorations (which should now be renamed "Forgetfulness Day").
