Armenia is the good guys in this one iirc because Nagorno-Karabakh is almost entirely populated by Armenians and Azerbaijan is willing to help Turkey take a second crack at the whole Armenian Genocide thing if Turkey helps them re-annex Nagorno-Karabakh.

The Azeri state are evil fuckers but this kind of poo poo is more or less blatant genocide denial.

I think that guy specifically might be taking the piss, but after what I saw when the chodes invaded Cihangir a couple nights ago I'm a bit less sure. In any case I'm sure every prominent Armenians mentions and replies are wall to wall angry wolf avatars.

The area of the Artsakh republic is considerably larger than the old oblast, which indeed was 99% Armenian. But the hundred thousand or so Armenians made up only a quarter of the population of the plateau when they declared independence.

Well poo poo.

Turkish F-16s are operating out of the Ganja Airport in Azerbaijan and have shot down an Armenian Su-25 over Armenia airspace. Pilot is dead.

https://www.facebook.com/shushanstepanyan/posts/3283559811680156

translation

quote:

Today, at 10:30, F-16 fighters of the Turkish air force took off from the Ganja airport of the Republic of Azerbaijan and provided bombing attacks from Turkish-made Bayraktar UAVs on localities and ground units of the Armenian armed forces located in the regions of Vardenis, Mets masrik, Sotk of Vardenis, Vardenis and Mets masrik, Sotk:

During this period, the combat tasks of fire support for units of the air defense forces of the RA armed forces were performed by their own aircraft.

A su-25 fighter of the RA air force was shot down by a multi-role F-16 fighter of the Turkish air force in the air space of the Republic of Armenia while performing a combat mission during air and air battles:

The pilot, unfortunately, died heroically:

The multi-role fighter of the Republic of Turkey F-16, according to objective control measures, was located at a depth of 60 km at an altitude of 8200 meters.

The Armenians have yet to produce any evidence that they lost the plane to an F-16. On the other hand, if they did lose a plane then saying that a Turkish F-16 shot it down paints Turkey and Azerbaijan as escalating wildly. Azerbaijan has clear capability to deliver precision-guided munitions via its UCAVs (be they controlled by Azeri or by Turkish operators), and in Karabakh Armenian air defense seems to be lacking, they have only brought down (confirmed) some smaller recon drones and a helicopter. Where Azerbaijan is lacking is on ground capability (note that almost all front-line footage is being released by Armenia, and shows Azeri attacks stalling), but in the air they seem to be dominating at the moment. Armenia also has to paint its loss of its Su-25 in the "best" light possible for them. Azerbaijan is the clear aggressor, and Turkish support is there, but as of now it is all indirect.

Escalation would favour Armenia because then they could use their Iskanders, which are better than what the Azeris have.

A big part of Armenias ground advantage is eastern Artsakh being an ungodly mess of mountain passes, so that ground advantage collapses if that factor gets neutralized somehow. Hopefully it'll act as a meatgrinder for the Azeri ground material until everyone goes home.

Ahmadinejad's Twitter has been used mainly for generic woke poo poo for the past few years, and it is one of the most truly baffling political retirement stories (also probably not him tweeting most of this stuff).

My actual favourite is when he actually followed the twitter accounts of one of the hosts of Chapo Trap House and actively follows american college football.

I mean strip away his policies, general political views and record as president and he seems like a really chill guy.

Never heard of Nazis having a beef with Armenians. Then again, they might just hate any vaguely strange-looking immigrant.

I think there's a plausible route to this war developing into something wider (something like Iran and Russia allying to attack Azerbaijan, Turkey appealing to the US to punish Iran to prevent a major swing in the balance of power in the Caucuses, Trump seizing on this as his October Surprise) but it's pretty slim imo. That said Azerbaijan seems to have gone all in with Turkey which leaves Russia few options for maintaining their position in the region. I think it all comes down to how serious Azerbaijan is and how much Erdogan wants to escalate.

I don’t think Nazis have any particular beef with Armenians.

LA has p much every nationality on the planet including Turks/Azeris, plus I wouldn’t be at all surprised if there’s some covert ops going on to destabilize the diaspora
