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 think not. True Nuclear disarmament can only happen in a rational world dedicated to peace and I don't see that happening this century if not the next.
    If North Korea wanted to do more damage than a nuke, all they would have to do is invade South Korea. Perhaps they just want to free their own people.

      You have to distinguish the difference between the "U.S." and the Pentagon. The "U.S." is a country consisting of citizens. The Pentagon is an entity operating with a base inside the "U.S" which is in the business of military domination.

        Iran candidate wants to move Israelis to Hawaii


        Unlike other 12-year-olds, Kourosh Mozouni wants to become the next president of Iran and the youngster has already laid out his political agenda with a proposal to move Israelis to Hawaii and a bid to raise men's wages so that mothers do not have to work.

        Mozouni, who is in the running against 170 people – including 11 women, said if elected he would ban computer games and pass a law allowing women to have jobs on the condition that they have children no younger than five.

        Mozouni also said he would negotiate with United States President Barack Obama "to buy Hawaii Islands and moves Israelis there so that Palestinians can live peacefully on their lands," official news agency Press TV quoted him as saying.

        "Mothers, children and young adults will vote for me," Mozouni confidently told reporters at the Interior Ministry's election headquarters. The interior ministry has already rejected the 12-year-olds bid.

        With Iran at loggerheads with the West over its nuclear program, reporters asked the young hopeful if he knew what yellow cake – a substance used for nuclear fuel – was and he replied that a "president does not have to know everything."

        "You all have refrigerators at home but do you know the different parts of it? All Iranians believe nuclear energy to be their legitimate right, but this does not mean that they should know everything about it," the 12-year-old was quoted by the official news agency as saying.

        Mozouni also said if elected he would seek to stop the killing of the world's oppressed children, including Gazans.

        Last week, a former head of the elite Revolutionary Guards became one of the most prominent figure to register as a candidate in Iran's June presidential election a few hours before incumbent president, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, registered.

        Candidates will be vetted by the Guardian Council, which has strict moral and other criteria, requiring them to be established statesmen. In the last vote in 2005, only about 10 were cleared.

              Israel stages biggest-ever war drill

              JERUSALEM (CNN) -- Israel started its biggest emergency drill in the nation's history Sunday to prepare civilians, soldiers and rescue crews for the possibility of war, the defense force said in a statement.

              The five-day drill, nicknamed Turning Point 3, comes amid the nation's rising tensions with Iran.

              It will be conducted in public facilities, including schools, military bases and government offices. Students, soldiers and other civilians will practice how to gather at protected places during an emergency.

              Officials said the drill will include simulated rockets, air raids and other attacks on infrastructure and essential facilities, and use of weapons on civilians.

              Everyone is expected to go to a protected place at the sound of sirens, the defense force said, adding that more instructions will be broadcast on a public channel.

              "It is of great importance that every civilian, institute and workplace will seriously practice in order to improve our preparedness and national resilience," Maj. Gen. Yair Golan of the Home Front Command said in a news statement.

              The move comes amid tension between Israel and Tehran.

              The Israeli government considers Iran's nuclear program as the dominant threat facing the country. Israel is publicly supportive of President Barack Obama administration's outreach to the Islamic state.

              Israeli Defense Minister Ehud Barak told Israeli Army Radio last week that he believes "that the chance the dialogue has of stopping Iran's nuclear efforts is very low."

              Barak's views are keeping with the majority of his countrymen.

              An Israeli poll released this month found that 74 percent believe that the U.S. policy of engagement with Iran will fail and 81 percent think Iran will develop a nuclear weapon capability.

              Israel has conducted emergency drills the past two years, but officials said this is the biggest so far.

                      Barack Obama: Iran has right to develop peaceful nuclear energy

                      /PanARMENIAN.Net/ Iran has a right to develop peaceful nuclear energy, said the U.S. president Barack Obama in his speech at the Cairo university. However, according to him Tehran must join The Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons.

                      Long years Iran has been an adversary of the U.S. Instead of remaining in the past it is necessary to look in the future,” the U.S. president said. “Certainly, when we speak about nuclear weapons, there mustn’t be another decision. This topic relates not only to American interests, but directly to prevention of nuclear arm race in the Near East,” Barack Obama said.
