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.

    Not only the Turkish Government, but all the countries do the same thing, look at England, France and above all
    Germany during the génocide. And even the US. They all
    shut their eyes, they had all the letters from diplomats,
    but they did not do anything.
    And what should they have done? What could they have done?

    During the war, the Armenians were first expelled from Shahumian, Shushi, Hadrut, and sections of Martuni. When the Armenian forces went on the offensive they retook most or parts of those regions, the Azeri population followed the retreating Azeri forces. Later, the Armenians would indeed take over Azeri regions outside of the NKR where again the Azeri population followed their retreating army. The Azeri citizens were geneally not forced to go and in some cases, the Azeri troops fled well-before the civilian population could organize a retreat. They were not slaughtered, molested, harrassed.

    The only known case of Azeri civilians having suffered a massacre was at Khodjali. This massacre was conducted by the Soviet 366th Mechanized Regiment { Soviet troops were still stationed in the region at this time}. Why? A day before the Azeris launched an artillery barrage from the Khodjali Airport into the Soviet baracks outiside of Stepanakert and hit the mess hall during lunchtime. Several soldiers were killed and one of their most beloved officers was among the dead.

    The Armenian forces did have the town surrounded from three sides, to the north, west, and south with a corridor left open to the east so the Azeri civilians could flee. The Armenians were certainly going to attack at some point. Instead, most of the Soviet 366th crossed over the Armenian lines and at nightfall and attacked the Azeri defenses, the Azeri forces retreated all the way to Aghdam. The 366th then massacred several hundred Azeri civilians. A portion of the Azeri civilians were accidentally shot by the Azeri forces stationed to the east outside of Aghdam. It was nighttime and they were mistaken for Russian troops.

    Thomas Goltz was one of the first to report on Khodjali. He created he myth of Armenians committing a full-scale massacre of Azeri civilians. He would refute this later in an article called "Russian Hidden Hand" in 1994.

    The 366th Regiment would be evacuated very soon after. Some of their troops would stay on and fight for the Armenians. The 366th would be active later in Chechnya and in 1995 committed a similar massacre of Chechen civilians at Samashki.
    Given the significance that the Azeri propagandists have put on the Khodjali events, why has nobody in Armenia got the facts straight? There seem to be numerous versions, each claiming to tell what actually happened.

    Any kind of discussion can only come with the repeal of 'insulting turkishness'.

    I've met and spoken to some educated Turks who think like Firat.... so just because many of the ones on the internet are a pain in the Sultan's behind doesn't mean that they are all incapable of independent thought. As Eddo said, Turkishness is what makes the citizens so loyal to the state. I find it a lot like someone who attends a state college/university in the US. How many Americans associate their identity with which school they attended? I know I've met many that spit out where they went to school nearly every other sentence, lol.
