Muslims are no more deserving of being terrorized and killed as anyone else. If anything intervention in Bosnia was too little too late. No one should support criminals - no matter what their religion/ethnicity etc

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.

I am also happy to see that eventhough you guys are Orthodox Christians you do not justify Serbian ethnic cleansing policy.
Bosnians and Albanians come from Ottoman origin/culture. They have lots of religous people/scholars. Being religous does not mean being fudnementalist.
Balkan muslims have e tradition of Sufism and mystism since 13th century(Sari Saltuk's , Haci Bektash's legacy). What Albanians experience is not secularism but Atheism which is Enver Hoja's communist trace.
MAcedonian Albanians are not like Albania's Albanians. And religously speaking no Albanian would ever think that eating pork is ok. And in Balkan history you wouldnt see such muslims thats after communism/socialism. Same goes with
Bosnians. Albanians are among the first Muslims immigrated to US(in masses) after the Balkan war and during WW-I. And first and major mosque is build by them which is still in service.
Originally posted by GondorianTurQ I am happy to say I agree with you on this.
1.5 Million, Rudo, and Kharpert I would like to add in this hypothetical. Even if the Bosnians did have many extremist Muslims so what? Nothing justifies Genocide, it is always wrong wether done by Serbs against non Serbs, Germans against Jews and other minorities, Turks against Christians, Hutus against Tutsis etc etc etc, no genocide is ever justified.
Besides that was just a hypothetical, anyone familiar with Balkan History, or culture would know that Bosnians and Albanians are mainly as secular as they come, in going to restaurants with Albanians I find that they normally order Pork, Pork that is not Halal.

Originally posted by SenseiYOU are the one supporting criminals. It was the SERBS who were terrorized and victimized and if you don't believe it, then go back to the track records of the people and their behavior during WWII. That speaks louder than anything.
BTW, if you aren't even going to bother reading what I have posted as evidence, it is best you dont make yourself look stupider by discussing the subject you obviously know NOTHING about.
How do you know what you know?
1.5: DUH, I saw it on television so it must be true.

Which cities she have been to in Bosna? What she did was an honourable thing. So your wife is also an Armenian?
Both my Albanian and Bosnian friends witnessed those massacres. I know an Albanian kid he was 9 during the Kosova massacres, he witnessed pregnant women being stabbed by Serb soldiers.
My friend's mom was a doctor and a well-known family in Sarajevo, she came to Istanbul several times during the siege and get back to Sarajevo to help out people. She was a fearless woman. She was also an artist and opened an exhibition for her own paintings defying the Chetnik Serb siege. Yes there are lots of brave and great Bosnians.
Originally posted by 1.5 millionhahaha - this is a laugh. For one - I happen to work with many people who have been down there on the ground in various capacities...for anonther my wife has been to both Bosnia and Kosovo overseeing relief efforts for those made homeless by these "wars". She spent considerable time interviewing (mostly widows) of all sides as well as interacting with UN and private relief workers. In fact our whole family has (some very colorful!) wool socks and other tems made by Bosnian widows who are in a program that encourages them to produce things to sell to make money as they have lost their family breadwinner. My wife also toured massacre sites and has gone through tunnels used for escape. She also interviewed (Bosnian) men and boys who both escaped massacre this way and some who were held in camps. Also I should say that I have other means of getting information other then TV news or commercial services. I am not an uniformed person.

No TurQ - my wife is not Armenian. Besides Bosnia and Kosovo she has been to Rwanda (and surrounding countries), Cyprus, and even Turkey doing similar & related things (regarding Turkey it was in regards to misuse of U.S. appropriated funds & equipment etc concerning use against Kurdish civilians...) - at the time she worked for the U.S. Congress (as I once did...)

Parandzem, you've already spent your first 3 posts flaming other members. Anyone would think you're just a sock-puppet for Sensei, and if you don't drop your snitty tone and insistence on holding everyone's ethnicity against them you might face a ban sooner than you think.
Oh, by the way, RUDO is Kurdish.

Do you even think or read what you write before you post it? What are you talking about holding anyone's ethnicity against them? I just asked a normal question and I expect a normal, honest answer. Seems like you have a snitty tone here. Don't threaten me BTW. Are you a moderator? I seriously doubt it. Otherwise your post count would be much higher I think.
