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.

      Yom HaShoah

      Yom HaShoah
      From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
      Jump to: navigation, search
      Yom HaZikaron LaShoa VeLagvura (יום הזיכרון לשואה ולגבורה), or "Holocaust and bravery Remembrance Day", takes place on the 27th day of Nisan, in the Hebrew calendar. It is held every year in remembrance of the approximately six million Jews who were killed in the Holocaust. It is a national holiday in Israel.

      It was originally proposed to be on the 15th of Nisan, the anniversary of the Warsaw ghetto uprising (April 19, 1943), but this was objected to as being the first day of Passover. Instead, the 27th was chosen, being eight days before Yom Ha'atzma'ut, or Israeli Independence Day. Yom HaShoah was established by Israeli law in 1959, and was signed by David Ben-Gurion and Yitzhak Ben-Zvi, then Prime Minister of Israel and President of Israel, respectively.

      Chareidi (ultra-Orthodox) Jews do not attribute any significance to this day and continue their daily lives. They remember the victims of the Holocaust on other days, which were already days of mourning before the Holocaust, such as Tisha b'Av.

      At 10:00am on Yom HaShoah, air-raid sirens sound for two minutes throughout Israel. Public transport (including virtually all highway vehicles) comes to a standstill for this period, and people stop and stand silent. During Yom HaShoah, much public entertainment and many public establishments in Israel are closed by law. Israeli television and radio channels transmit mourning songs and documentaries about the Holocaust, and no commercials. All flags on public buildings are flown at half mast.

      Also during this day, tens of thousands of Israeli high-school students, and thousands of Jews from around the world, hold a memorial service in Auschwitz, in what became known as "The March of the Living", in defiance of the Holocaust Death Marches. This event is endorsed and subsidized by the Israeli Ministry of Education, and is considered an important part of the academic studies--a culmination of several months of studies on World War II and the Holocaust.

          Yea, how convenient!

          Anyway, if it's April 25, then why are they doing all that stuff on April 24th?

              Yes Gavur, it is embarrassing to have the submissive ones like you. Please tell us which year any of the major American media did cover any of the Armenian "Holocaust" events in the US? Spare me the L.A. and Boston area local news to please the local Armenians. Yes tell us Gavur why a country like France with a much smaller Armenian % have the recognition that we deserve? Not to mention south America, Russia.... Tell us “embarrassed Armenian” who should be embarrassed the people denying it or the ones asking for justice? Am I supposed to be proud and submissive in a country with over 1 million Armenians that didn’t even get a proper recognition after 91 years? A country that is supposed to have all the values that we perished for? Yes it is embarrassing not to be Armenian, it is embarrassing to constantly take a beating and be happy with your small insignificant world.

                PLEASE allow us to talk about **** without being nasty!

                Gavur jan,

                I don't want to contradict you or aggravate you. But are they so innocent after all?

                I don't have a problem with them (man we are stepping into a dangerous terrain!), it's their (some of them not all though) behavior that frustrates us; some of us more than the others.

                Their stance on Artsakh, the J***** lobby's fierce opposition to any Armenian friendly resolution in the US congress, their dealings with the fake "Azerbaijan" and the conspiracies against Iran to promote pan-turkism, separatism = destruction of Armenia.

                I remember very well, last year's April 24, the important 90th anniversary, was also juined, oops! Sorry ruined with another H******** Remembrance day or something. The Gallipoli thing was also "commemorated" in the same days.

                They didn't spare an effort to neutralize the impact of our protest.

                I think we should not shy away from this. I'm sure there's a way we can talk about them without wanting to be nasty. We cannot close our eyes and let them screw us like this.

                The last example: Right now, Euro News also granted a spot at the end of their half-hourly news to AG.
                Once again it stunk of Zionist head giving to the Turks.
                After they showed some footage from the opening of the last AG memorial in France, they also showed a Turk who said something like:

                "Some historians say it was genocide, other "historians" say it was not", and he insisted on this two sides to an absolute truth.

                Would they ever dare show something like that about the other ********?

                Why?
                Did they REALLY have to show that too?
                Aren't they ashamed?
                Don't they all KNOW it was genocide and the ONLY 100% successful one?
                The ONLY not atoned for one?
                The ONLY one where an entire nation lost their homeland of 1000s of years?
                The ONLY one that still goes on in forms of Sumgait, Baku, etc. Jugha destruction and the destruction of our heritage in the rest of Turkish occupied Armenia?
                It pisses me off. Shame on you jEuro News!

                The American Ambassador John Evans is on the verge of losing his job and career, only because he acknowledged the AG.

                Aren't they ashamed?
                Shame on you US of A!
                Shame on you ambitious, spinster xxxxx! Didn't you learn anything from 300 years of slavery that you walk all over Armenians this way?
                Turkey is the only country in the world that can censor America.
                I xxxx on your "freedom of speech"!

                I suggest instead of reacting brutally to each other, let's find a way to criticize them without being nasty.
                Four things denialist Turks do when they are confronted with facts:

                I. They change the subject [SIZE="1"](e.g. they copy/paste tons of garbage to divert attention).[/SIZE]
                II. They project [SIZE="1"](e.g. they replace "Turk" with "Armenian" and vice versa and they regurgitate Armenian history).[/SIZE]
                III. They offend [SIZE="1"](e.g. they cuss, threaten and/or mock).[/SIZE]
                IV. They shut up and say nothing.

                  A couple of things. Levon, No personal attacks are permitted in the forum. Don't talk to people again the way you talked to Gavur.

                  Also, since you joined the forum earlier this year everything you post has been Jew related, and it better stop.

                  Thanks,

                    I been to several April 24th events this year and lots of people talked. Armenian, Turk and Jews and it was all about Armenians (Some selfish groups of Armenians were conspiciously absent this year btw)no mention of Jews at all ,

                    Then I come in to this forum here and see Armenians trying to hijack April 24 by lying to other Armenians at the expense of jewish people who suffered also. So what if some have forgotten about us they are not the only ones.(They have enough trouble making sure theyre suffering is not forgotten)

                    Besides its our resposibility to help people remember
                    But not in a disspicable ,low and transparently immoral way.
