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.

    'Iran will bomb Turkey if the country invades Syria'

    Turkish officials have told Western countries that Turkey might launch a military operation in Syria's north to overthrow President Bashar al-Assad's regime, a Kuwaiti newspaper reported on Monday.

    “Turkey informed Britain, France, Italy, Germany and the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) leadership of the possibility that it would launch an offensive in … Aleppo, Homs, Hama and Latakia,” As-Seyassah daily quoted an unnamed British officials as saying, according to the Lebanese news website nowlebanon.com.

    The report comes amid fears of undesired confrontation between the Turkish and Syrian armies along the border. About 12,000 Syrians have fled their homes in northern towns and have taken refuge on the Turkish side of the border. The Syrian army is reportedly reinforcing troops near the Turkish border to prevent further inflows of refugees towards Turkey. The Turkish military is also reportedly considering reinforcing border troops. Senior Turkish commanders have recently traveled to the border province of Hatay to inspect the border area.

    “Turkish officials fear the possibility of the Syrian army committing mistakes on its borders, which might oblige the Turkish army to cross the Syrian border,” the Kuwaiti daily quoted a Lebanese diplomat in Ankara as saying. The Syrian government's brutal crackdown on anti-regime protesters has brought once-close Turkish-Syrian relations to a breaking point, with Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdoğan describing the Syrian response to protests as “savagery.”

    Earlier, a columnist for Lebanese daily al-Akhbar, said to be close to Hezbollah, claimed that Iran had threatened Turkey that if it were to be used as a platform for NATO action against Syria, then Iran would bomb US and NATO bases in Turkey. A columnist for the newspaper also said Iran sees the preservation of the Syrian regime as the preservation of the Iranian and Lebanese governments.

    Iran denies it threatened Turkey, slams Western media

    http://www.todayszaman.com/news-248869-iran-denies-it-threatened-turkey-slams-western-media.html


    A clear case of Western media misinformation.
    Politics is not about the pursuit of morality nor what's right or wrong
    Its about self interest at personal and national level often at odds with the above.
    Great politicians pursue the National interest and small politicians personal interests

      More to this story than either link conveys. Iran has made it clear to the turks that an adventure in Syria will not be looked upon kindly, and certainly Tehran has a number of tools which it can employ, short of overt war, against turkey in case it invades Syria.
      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.

        Ali Geranmayeh: Neither Iran, not Armenia benefit from the growth of Turkey’s role in the region

        “Neither Iran, not Armenia benefit from the growth of Turkey’s role in the region,” said Ali Geranmayeh, a former Iranian diplomat, who teaches political science at the University of London.

        “What’s happening in the Arab world, is being done for Islam rather than for the sake of democracy and economy, while Iran’s reaction to the events taking place in the East is not realistic,” Ali Geranmayeh said at a seminar on “The influence of Eastern revolutions in Iran” organized by the Armenian Center of National and International Studies.

        He compared the democratic movements in the Arab World that started in 2011 to the processes taking place in the Soviet Union in late 1980s and voiced hope that today’s developments will have the same outcome as the events of 1989.

        How will the Turkish-Iranian relations develop in the future? Both countries claim to unite the Islamic world and both are trying to play a role in the settlement of the Karabakh conflict, while both have discrepancies on the two issues. Ali Geranmayeh says Turkey is more successful and economically stronger.

        Lecturer of the London University says the Turkish-Iranian relations are normal. “Iran wants to improve relations with Armenia, but is delicate on issues connected with Turkey,” he said.

          Whilst Syria is a Sunni state. Turkey and Syria have had troubled relations for years and Syria is clearly very unstable. Iran isn't a counter to Turkey, on any level and the Iranians bark is a lot bigger than their bite.

              Iran is not stupid enough to risk a wide regional conflict with Turkey, plus they have great economic relations now, and given the sanctions, I doubt Iran wants to give that up. Nor do I think Turkey will attack Syria, just scare tactics, that's all.

                Iran would have no choice since they would most certainly be next on the hit list. I don't think Turkey would allow NATO to use it as a base against Syria but if they were under extreme pressure or if the pot was sweetened then Turkey might think it would be an easy way for them to gain more regional power. The EU-Turkey deal is done for since the EU is economically crippled. Iran wouldn't attack Turkey but just drive NATO off of its turf. It would be nice to see NATO abolished, it has just become a bureaucratic military installment that has outlived its usefulness since the "Red Scare". All of this could be a possibility.... not probable but possible.

                  I agree, NATO has become kind of useless, and it acts just like another branch of US military. NATO actually isn't very popular in Europe, especially in countries such as Germany.

                  I wouldn't be surprised if Turkey gets out of NATO one day, and I agree that EU-Turkey membership is all but done. Turkey's economy is in better shape than EU's and I doubt Turkey wants to join the sinking ship.

                    Please leave politics to those who understand it. Iran is a counter to turkey and has been for centuries. They are natural geopolitical rivals, same with Russia and turkey. Iran has built close ties with the Syrian government in a number of spheres and they can use their agents of influence within Syria to make life hell for the turks and nato should the latter decide to interfere in Syrian affairs.

                    to place our national interests ahead of our personal gains or aspirations.
