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.

    Lieberman: 'No Israeli plan' to bomb Iran



    Israeli Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman has said his country is not planning unilateral military action to disable Iran's nuclear programme.

    Speaking on a visit to Moscow, he said it was not Israel's job to deal with Iran alone, which he described as "a threat to the entire world order".

    Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu says Iran cannot be allowed to have nuclear arms and refuses to rule out use of force.

    Iran denies it seeks nuclear arms and says its programme is totally peaceful.

    Israel, which is widely believed to be the Middle East's only nuclear-armed state, has repeatedly described Iran's uranium enrichment programme as a threat to its existence.

    Israeli officials frequently say all options are on the table to stop Iran from using it to build atomic weapons.

    Speaking in Russian, Mr Lieberman said: "I have been asked by Saudi journalists about when Israel plans to bomb Iran. We are not planning to bomb Iran."

    "We do not have a need... Israel is a strong country and we can defend ourselves."

    The right-winger, who grew up in the Soviet Union, has a reputation for outspoken rhetoric: it is not clear how his words square with other policy statements on Iran by Israeli government officials.

    Israel's main ally, the US, plans to engage Tehran in direct talks in an effort to end the nuclear standoff.

    In an interview with the BBC broadcast on Tuesday, Mr Obama said he wanted to see serious engagement from Iran on the nuclear issue by the end of 2009.

        The US can't afford to take on Iran in a military conflict at the moment.... Afghanistan and Iraq aren't exactly developing according to plan. However, neither Israel nor the US can sit back and allow Iran to grow stronger. Ahmadinejad has won the elections in a landslide, the country will continue on its course to defy America and Israel.

          OMG people Iran is not Iraq,war with them will secure nice chunk of US loses,Iran has officially more than a million of troops,can US face them face 2 face with out numerical advantages?
          What US will and can do is to coordinate all side attack,they will need to surprise them and hope in few time secure strategic location in a well fortificated area,then what??
          I can't see eny opportunity of US victory war will last long as the matter will solve with diplomatic ways,and just think what Russia or Europe or all the east will have to say to the aggressor this time what they will say Nukes Terrorism?
          The man that will do the first step will be damed by all of humanity as the power of this size will take others with them.

            Plus, don't forget the current rift between the US and Israel. Obama shifts away from the course held by the previous administration, which undoubtedly arouses anxiety in Tel Aviv. Not that I am his proponent, much on the contrary(I even don't reside in the US), but still he is the first US president ever not to accommodate above all the xxxs

              The Israelis have officially committed themselves to the US's diplomatic efforts with Iran and their is no rift between the US and Israel. The reason why the Obama administration needs to resurrect “the two states solution” (a mirage) is to distance the US from Israel's expansionism in the West Bank.

                Well I think that's obvious but I wouldn't say the Israeli's are particularly happy about it, let's put it bluntly. They preferred Bush.

                    Looks like things are turning nasty in Tehran.

                    One dead as hardline militiamen open fire on protesters in Tehran

                    Hardline militiamen allied to Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad shot one protester dead this afternoon and wounded many more in what appeared to be the beginning of a toughened crackdown against demonstrators protesting against the Iranian President's disputed election victory.

                    The Basij militiamen used live bullets after their building was attacked by furious supporters of Mir Hossein Mousavi, an Iranian photographer at the scene who witnessed the shooting said.

                    Members of Iran’s security forces have at times fired into the air during two days of the Iranian capital’s most violent unrest since the 1979 Islamic Revolution, and used batons to beat protesters who have pelted police with stones. But witnesses said that the Basij resorted to live fire this afternoon, and people fled the area as police fired tear gas. As well as one death, several were said to be wounded in the incident. ...
