@monberg1000 Anyone who has been following this channel long enough knows full well this guy is on the ball a lot more than he is off. Anyone new to this channel will naturally wonder if he is telling the truth or not, you'd have to be stupid no to question it. But if you watch long enough you start to realize what I said earlier, this guy is on the ball. He covered the fall of many Ukrainian cities well before the mainstream media did. Eventually they got around to what he'd been saying for days. People claimed he was lying at that time too. He was also one of the first (that I've seen) talk about the munitions shortages. Again people claimed he was lying, I too was skeptical. Until months later leaders of said nations admitted they've been having munitions shortages. So yea, if you've been following this guy for a while and still think he is a liar, well you're an idiot. If you haven't been following him long, keep following and you'll realize he is quite good.

We're no strangers to terrorists, real terrorists too not those terror light guys in Kosovo. Look at our currency policy in Syria.

@pelledkdk268 It's easy when you're armed to the teeth and the other side essentially has nothing besides civilians.

With their energy money they literally went out and purchased the best training money can buy. You really can't go wrong with your army being trained by Turkey and Israel. Two of the best in the business.

What a well thought out and detailed video explaining the situation. Super impressive.

There are close to 10 nations which share a language very similar to them. Azerbaijan being one.

It can work if it's very targeted and what you gain is more than what you spend. Also it can be sustainable if you don't turn it into an entire industry feeding itself like here in America.

@napoleonfeanor The things being looked at are long term geopolitical trends. Their economy doesn't seem like a long term issue. This is for what ever reason the ebb and flow of how things evolve there. They'll have 10 years of insane economic growth, 10 years of chaos and then another 10 years of insane economic growth. They had a similar situation like today in their economy from the late 1990s into the early 2000s where everything was going to hell with high inflation. Then after the mid 2000s their economy kicked into over drive for roughly 10 years where they had some of the highest growth rates in the world. For one reason or another it is simply how they do things. Don't think it will have any effect on their long term power projection.

@thefriendlyapostate8290 Yup that is a very popular cliche in both nations. "Two states, one people"

@BorisStein ever heard of the boy who cried wolf?

I find military conflicts intriguing and tend to follow them in detail. This specific conflict blew my mind, the level of cognitive dissonance from the Armenians was at terrifying levels. They were so convinced of their "racial" superiority that they completely and utterly ignored all the warning signs before this war. I also remember looking into their media outlets during the war and how they were basically saying "we're destroying the Azeris, they're about to give up." This kind of reporting went on until literally the day they surrendered. It's no wonder the Armenian public completely and utterly freaked out when they heard of the surrender. Convinced of their racial superiority and the media telling them stories of how they were winning obviously they were shocked when they heard of the surrender. A rational society would take lessons from mistakes like this but did the Armenians? Oh no, delving into conspiracy theories of how their government sold them out and lost this war on purpose are constantly swirling around. This region should not have been easy to attack and occupy and should have been extremely easy to defend. The terrain is a nightmare for any attacking army.
27
@ataab9861 If you bury your emotions and biases and look at the situation rationally I'd imagine it's the opposite. There are literally more Azerbaijani people living in in northern Iran than actually live in Azerbaijan. This is not a sustainable situation for Iran and Northern Iran one way or another in the future will be incorporated into Azerbaijan. I'm not saying this is a good thing or a bad thing, I'm indifferent to it. What I am saying is that this is the most rational and likely scenario in the long term.
19
They're probably studying the part where one side surrendered. That is usually the part of war the French military is generally interested in lol
19
You'd have to look at their historical performance to understand their strange economy. They have a crazy boom and bust cycle. 10 years stagnation followed by 10 years of explosion. These ebbs and flows haven't effected their geo political expansion. Nor will it effect it long term.
14
@saattlebrutaz It seems a bit late for all that don't you think?
13
@anthonyoer4778 Well yes but technically no. People in Turkey are carry more indigenous Anatolian DNA and the Azeris carry more Persian DNA. They're not really the same people. But they do have the same language and relatively similar cultures.
13
@Sako Gekckyan, I have a good idea on what you should do next time. How about not invading your neighbor's internationally recognized territory and not ethnically cleansing all their people from it. That might be a good start.
12
The idea of them entering the European Union is pure fantasy. Also it was a major win for them, he is referring to the 2020 war when Azerbaijan absolutely wrecked the Armenian military.
11
@Joe Canis, There are few conflicts where you can objectively point to one side being the good guys and one side as the bad guys. This is probably one of those few conflicts where that line is drawn rather easily. 1. Armenia illegally invaded Azerbaijan's legally recognized territory in the 1990s. This is so irrefutable that there isnt' one nation on this planet which doesn't see this region as Azeri teritory. 2. After said illegal invasion and occupation Armenian forces ethnically cleansed every single Azeri civilian from this region. To the tune of 800,000. 3. Azerbaijan was literally enforcing about 4 different UN resolutions with this police action. 4. The entire thing took 44 days and less civilians died than normally do from car accidents every year. A far cry from the 800,000 civilians ethnically cleansed when Armenia took the area in the 1990s. Morally and politically it's a hard thing to define. Legally it's an easy thing to define.

@braktorveilleux2623 I'd love to see this list of lies you guys are all claiming is being thrown around. Show me the money bro. I get that there may be particular topics he covers which trigger you. Doesn't make him a liar does it?
10
@ThorSuzuki1 So was he lying or was he wrong with his prediction. Big difference. Claiming something "will fall" which doesn't is different than claiming it did fall when it didn't. The second being lying, the first being a bad prediction. You do understand the difference no?
9
@ThorSuzuki1 He has made 100s of predictions, I'd imagine it's easy to point to a few he made which were incorrect. Not to mention the premise of this entire conversation was predicated upon a poster earlier claiming he is a liar.

@julius43461 Their birthrates are slightly above replacement rate. Not good not terrible. But they do have more specific demographic problems which will surely hamper their efforts going forward. The problem isnt' their breeding rates, their problem is who is breeding. If these trends continue they will surely see an average IQ drop among their population in the next 50 years.
9
@sidequestenjoyer7037 Yea their troops got smacked around so badly that the other side surrendered lol

@Insanesucide It shouldn't be that hard to do surveillance on a group stuck in a 40km prison with no way in or out. It begs the question, what is Israel doing with all the billions we send them for surveillance and defense?
8
@MR-177 Turkey actually didn't send any forces in that war. They simply trained them and sold them weapons. Like how Russia trained Armenia and (gave) Armenia weapons free of charge. 1v1 Azerbaijan vs Armenia would be total destruction of Armenian forces. This is what was happening in 2020 if Russia didn't step in and save Armenia's army from being slaughtered like cattle. Makes sense why it worked out that way if you really think about it. The extent of the Armenian military's experience was essentially slaughtering unarmed civilians. When they faced a well trained army it wasn't as easy I guess.

@micaiahm1 what a childish comment

I don't think they're in a position to gain a military foothold in Afghanistan or that they even want it. Their presence was more economic considerations, like providing safety for their construction companies who won a lot of contracts to rebuild the country. They saw what happened to America in Afghanistan, I don't think they're stupid enough to try to project military power there.
7
@sakogekchyan7366 Oh so you were born in California and lived most your life there. Nice, odd that I was so spot on. You can start making decisions for people elsewhere after you've lived there for a while. Again not from the comfort of your home in Cali, while what you want will bring poverty and misery to others. It's a pretty selfish thing if you think about it. Hell using the word selfish to describe this is being generous.
7
TEXOCMOTP The French only have enough munitions to last about 4 days. This is a fact. The only people the French can bomb are defenseless African tribes and even then they struggle. Aside from a few nukes, the French military barely has any capability.
6
Yea it's a very large base.
6
@sakogekchyan7366 I find it hilarious how people who don't have to deal with the repercussions of what they're advocating will advocate it the hardest. "Amenia has done just fine with it's borders closed" Did you seriously just say that? I'm sure that's an easy statement to make from the comfort of your home in California but I'd imagine people living there don't feel that they've "done just fine." Perhaps the massive poverty in that country doesn't bother you because you live a comfortable life in the west but I'd bet my bottom dollar it bothers the people who have to deal with the poverty. Imagine the hubris of a human to push someone onto another human due to their emotional needs and have that other person deal with the outcome of the action. Insanity.

@mountaindew20 I think they're either in or have observer status in that organization.
5
TEXOCMOTP France is a bad example. In an alternate universe if the Azeri army attacked the French army. The French would probably surrender after 4 days

@@kzgntosbaga6255 Something that is probably outside of your scope of comprehension.

@Rozarez213 I think he meant west Asia to be fair. Those nations aren't so populated.
5
@Ahmetkarl1229. Even people who live half way across the world understand the reasoning as to what you're trying to do with these bases. I find it odd you don't seem to understand.
5
@AG-vb6vv You really should look up the definition of ethnic cleansing. The ones who stayed with massacred which is why everyone else had to leave and leave in a hurry because they too would be raped, abused and killed. That is the TEXTBOOK definition of ethnic cleansing. You "cleanse" the area of a specific ethnic group which is exactly what the Armenians did in the 1990s. This is by international law a war crime. A war crime you're literally trying to deny. All your life you've probably hated war crime deniers, did you ever think you'd become one?
5
@Lafly84. See I can understand why they're there. What I can't understand is why you were there. I don't feel you being there served our interests one bit. I wonder if you yourself ever wondered why you're there.
5
@asala2116 Except Azerbaijan didn't stab Turkey in the back like Armenia did with Russia. With friends like Armenia, who needs enemies right?
5
@sakogekchyan7366 You were quite clear in what you were advocating. That Armenia not bother trying to repair relations with basically all their neighbors because they're just fine while blockaided. That was literally your argument.
5
@Studentstechtips-bangla6599. It is hard to say who needs who more. Nato needs Turkey not only for their huge military but also their invaluable geographical location. Turkey out of Nato or even with adversaries like Russia would be a logistical and geostrategic nightmare scenario for the west. On the flip side, Turkey needs Nato as well. The main reason being how the Turks see it "Being in Nato prevents Nato from attacking you." lol
5
@atillasari9232 It kind of does matter when you do a quick take about why the fighting is taking place.
4
@Paul Chamoun, Most nations buy weapons from other nations. You understand this right? You're right about it not being a fair fight. On one hand you had a well trained well disciplined army with modern technology. On the other hand you had a rag tag group of unorganized militia men who thought their racial superiority would win them the day lol

@altergreenhorn What makes you think England would hold what a bunch of emotional eastern Europeans are doing above their own core interests at the time?

@Roberttalan4717. Well put, people like this are a godsend to people completely tired of false narratives on the news. Dude does his research and comes at us with straight facts. No commentary no narratives.
4
@youryoutubeyoda For super powers the planet is simply a chess board you move pieces around. For regional powers like Turkey the region is a chess board where they are moving pieces around. Many of those bases are very strategically placed. Especially the ones being proposed in Libya and Sudan. And the existing ones in Somalia and Qatar. It's simply a projection of power which gains influence. If done right they are also very economically profitable as said influence and power projection garner you much better trade deals with nations.
4
@asala2116 The difference is no one from these nations are claiming Russia should have "saved them." You can see the problem here no? As far as everyone can do everything except Armenia is pure and utter insanity. Armenia is by far the most destabilizing nation in that small little region. 1. It invaded it's neighbor's internationally recognized territory. 2. It's been occupying said territory for 3 decades. 3. It has territorial claims on every single one of it's neighbor's except Iran. 4. It stabs Russia in the back and then demands Russia protect them. So your statement that everyone can do everything except Armenia is insanity.
4
@asala2116 You do realize your subjective historical view of what you think belongs to whom doesn't override international law right? This territory, as recognized by every nation is Azeri territory. You can't simple invade other nations and ethnically cleanse all their people and then play the victim. It really doesn't work this way.
4
The regime in Paris has a habit of making these insane statements they simply can't back up. I remember like 6 years ago when they tried a "show of force" with their navy in the east med. Only to have their bluff called and had to sail away with their tails tucked between their legs. The cringe never stops.
4
Yes I found his comment early in the video odd. "Land Azerbaijan considers theirs." Yea the rest of the world considers it that way as well.
4
Bog je Srbin It actually is considered Azeri territory. Can you name one country on this planet who doesn't recognize that region as part of Azerbaijan's internationally recognized international borders?
4
@Anri Chilinaryan, Call me crazy but maybe not invading your neighbor's international and ethnically cleansing 800,000 civilians might be a good start?
3
@Drivenmad7676 It's been really really bad for a very long time. The fact it's done in our name makes me sick to my stomach.

@gosyan, Unlike Macron Napolean actually had an army. Macron is just talking delusional nonsense. This isnt' the first time either.
3
@napoleonfeanor I am not so sure about that. Especially with Hungary.
3
Yes and unlike Macron Napoleon actually had an army.

Extreme levels of hubris never end well.

ISLAMMEHMEDOV Lets not be ridiculous. Yes the people claiming they're committing genocide are no where near the realm of reality. But on the flip side this idea that these foreign interventions are based on helping people is just as ridiculous as well. They're serving their geopolitical interests like every nation does. Thankfully they're not slaughtering civilians on mass like my county does like when we invaded Iraq. That I give them credit for. But don't tell me their aims are altruistic. That's insane.
3
ISLAMMEHMEDOV Well at the end of the day as Ukraine and Russia fight over Crimea, personally I'm hoping in the end the real owners of Crimea take it back. The Tatars are the rightful owners of that territory.
3
Sorry bro but all that credibility you built over the years was burned with that one ridiculous video you made about Israel vs Lebanon. People liked you because you were about facts and not spewing propagandistic talking points. Well I should say used to like you. RIP to the growth of your channel

@julius43461 Serbia isn't really in a position to do what Azerbaijan did.

I don't these people are bots. They just act like bots. The level of butthurt is unprecedented.

@scottthomas1153 Really? In history there was a nation who when powerful dominated smaller groups in their region? Say it isn't so lol

@tritium1998 Empires have a habit of doing that.

@vaetisean897 I find it interesting how every single group of people who deny war crimes make the same exact argument. I remember this Turkish dude who I questioned about the Armenian genocide made literally the SAME EXACT argument you're making now. "Well they did it to us as well." I've also heard Serbians make similar claims while denying their ethnic cleansing and genocide campaigns against the Bosnians in the 1990s. Do all of you war crimes deniers all go to the same workshop or something? Or do you all just buy the same book. "3 Easy steps to denying war crimes."

@Karakarakiri, The French might be worse than the Anglos. Just ask the people in North Africa.

@benyblanko1 Nothing was done to my name, something was however done "in" my name. Yours too
2
@DC, It was impossible terrain to deal with, for any army. Which is why everyone was so shocked they finished it in 44 days. Usually with terrain like this the attackers are expected to lose men on a 10-1 ratio. If the ratios are similar but you're dominating on destroyed equipment. The other side will eventually just give up. Which is what happened.
2
@KK-zc3wy It's also quite surreal how unprepared they were for that type of warfare. Were they not paying attention to what the Azeris were buying in the past 7 years?
2
@LC, Armenia wasn't attacked. An illegal invasion force squatting on internationally recognized Azeri territory was attacked. Also a nation which has 68k troops can still be dangerous. Don't forget this army invaded it's neighbor and ethnically cleansed over 800,000 civilians in the 1990s.
2
@Holt817. I think you can tell who is doing damage and who isn't by the reactions of the people who actually live in these nations. Not from the opinion of some guy named Holt817 who seems to have an emotional attachment to a narrative he wants to believe. Also this idea that European nations "built up African nations" is insanity. If you call building up including stealing resources and slaughtering millions of people who were against it. Then yes.
2
@TheLincolnrailsplitt Well if you really want to get into the nitty gritty of the situation and it's details. They kinda are asking for it.

@bobby4500. His comment about it being their entire army almost made me spit up my drink. 🤣🤣🤣🤣

@Ellisruger8.. Geography is destiny. They're essentially playing the hand geography has given them.
2
@dejanatanackovic909 I'd imagine this is why the globalists are constantly trying to overthrow the government there. Their motto is simple. If we don't control it, we will destroy it. But you are right that Turkey is in a situation where it can (to a certain extent) project it's own power.
2
@Thanksforaskingme None of those nations even come close to the power projection potential the Turks have. Israel has it's own massive internal problems. Egypt is a puppet regime that doesn't even have full independence. The Saudis can project power economically but I'm not sure what that is worth when they have zero ability to project power militarily, it is essentially a nation which does not have the ability to defend itself. Turkey essentially intervenes where it wants when it wants. The same can't be said for the three nations you just described. Not even close.
2
@Xaiver Laflamme, so if Azerbaijan had all these advantages, why was Armenia insane enough to continue to occupy their internationally recognized territory? That would be like me walking up to Mike Tyson in his prime. Spitting in his face and slapping him. Then complain after he beats the ever loving sh!t out of me lol
2
@Innercitychicken The context allowed them to do it. What I explained to you made them want to do it. If you want to do something bad enough, eventually the context to do so will arrive. Ignoring why someone wants to do something when trying to understand and event is insanity.
2
@Innercitychicken I'm fairly sure it wasn't western leaders who made Armenia illegally invade their neighbor. Nor was it them that made Armenia illegally occupy that territory for 30 years. This was in play LONGGG before Pashinyan was in charge.
2
@milos4987. Even if Nato vanished tomorrow I'm not sure Serbia would be able to make a movie on Kosovo the same way Azerbaijan moved on Nagorno Karabakh. As far as Serbians not living in reality, it's hard to blame them. The amount of double standards they're hit with is a tough pill to swallow. Not saying Serbians are angels and haven't done people wrong in the last few decades. But I'm not sure even that warrants the type of pressure they're put under by the collective west. I think it would be good for many of those Balkan nations to come to some sort of understanding and find a way to keep foreign powers from setting up shop in their nations. Russia controlling Serbia's foreign policy and Nato controlling Kosovo and Albania's is not good for the Serbians or the Albanians. They need to bury the past and find a way to accommodate each other. Right now if Nato vanished and Serbia full blown invaded Kosovo, I think the Turks would step in and wreck the Serbs. Which again would suck for Serbs and other people in that region.
2
@julius43461 If Nato wasn't a factor and Serbia did a full blown invasion of Kosovo. Turkey would go in full force for a plethora of reasons. I can't see a situation in which they wouldn't other than a powerful Russia threatening to intervene as well. Short of that, nothing would stop them. I also see your point about most the people in Kosovo wanting independence. But there are other factors at play such as the large Serbian community in northern Kosovo. They are under A LOT of pressure themselves. I know the media loves to paint Serbia as 100% the bad guy here but I don't agree. There are plenty of shades of grey. Personally I like Serbia and it's people and hope all this can be solved peacefully for all parties involved.
2
Bog je Srbin So your entire argument is this. Because the Turks committed atrocities against the Armenians over 100 years ago, we should completely ignore Armenian atrocities against the Azeris just a few decades ago? Is that your argument? If so, good luck with that. That is like my one neighbor punching my great grandfather in the face and then me 2 weeks ago blasting another in the face. Then when I'm arrested I tell them what I did was just fine because someone else punched my grandfather in the face 110 years ago. Again, do you not see the insanity in your argument here?
2
@Jg RSB, it's not taken seriously. But during the time of this ceasefire it was taken seriously as Russia hadn't attacked Ukraine yet.
2
@Mar_13288 You're right but it doesn't change the fact they're distracted and are A LOT less likely to take on another adventure at the same time.
2
@Lafly84 Me personally I don't like it. I'm glad to see you made it home safe and sound. Also it is those "super patriots in DC" that scare the living hell out of me.
2
@vanja2565 That is actually demonstrably false.
2
@DallasCaudill-x1uwho is being prejudice?
2
@Connor Matossian, so you don't feel bad that Armenia illegally invaded it's neighbor's internationally territory and ethnically cleansed 800,000 Azeri civilians in the 1990s? That's just cool in your book?
2
@multignou We had a manufacturing base during WW2. We simple switched already existing factory lines to produce military gear. Where are those factories today? The answer is, no we can't. That is until we rebuild our manufacturing base, which our insane leaders seem to have very little interest in.
2
@lamsmiley1944 If you believe Ukraine to be a democracy, I have some amazing Pacific Ocean Front property in Paris I'd love to sell you at a really really cheap price.
2
So you believe that pushing out an illegal occupation force from your internationally recognized territory to be a criminal act? According to your logic would Cypriots be criminals if they were able to push out the Turkish army from Cyprus? Because that is where your logic is headed here.
2
@Irobert1115HD Are you serious? Or do you live under a rock? Everyone knows what ISIS is and who they work for. Anyone someone upsets the globalists, bam they get hit with an ISIS attack. When was the last time a globalist client state was attacked by ISIS? Iran gets on their nerves, bam ISIS attack. Turkey takes steps in Syria the globalists don't like. Bam ISIS attacks their airport. They can't hurt Russia via Ukraine, BAM another ISIS attack. Again you'd have to be living under a rock to not see this.
1
Not really, it was in a remote corner of the world. Only people who are really into this stuff were following it.
1
Not really. They've essentially given nothing to that movement aside from some rhetoric. I"m sure they'd like to do what you're proposing but China casts a very large shadow.

@Coregame3 I see you've been reading the "how to deny war crimes/genocide/ethnic cleansing guide book. Chapter 1. Claim they did it too. lol No seriously do you guys all go to the same denial seminars or something?
1
@Coregame3 Again do all of your warcrimes/genocide/ethnic cleansing deniers all go to the same seminar on how to deny crimes or something? You're literally saying the same exact thing the Turks say when I question them about the Armenian genocide. Speaking of nice tries. You can't simply sweep something like this under the rug. You can't invade another nation's internationally recognized territory and ethnically cleanse 800,000 civilians and expect no one to ask questions. It would make sense if you simply accepted your crimes, apologized and paid reparations to the families of the victims. It isn't like this is an event from 100s of years ago. This literally happened when I was in middle school. The family members of the victims are still alive and the war criminals are still alive. They should be taken to an international court to account for their crimes.
1
Why so they can illegally invade their neighbor again and ethnically cleanse their people? Better they're not strong so civilians dont' get slaughtered again.
1
@allex975gaming So you believe it's okay to invade another nation's territory and then proceed to ethnically cleanse everyone there who isn't from your ethnic group? Interesting what you're defending here. Also the reason it was only Armenians living there as you said is because anyone who wasn't was savagely ethnically cleansed in the 1990s. So according to your logic I can invade a country, slaughter everyone who isnt' from my ethnic group and then simply say "this place is ours because only we live here." Good luck selling that argument to any rational human being.
1
@allex975gaming It isn't hard to justify a country enforcing UN resolutions by pushing out an illegal military force on their internationally recognized territory. Trying to argue it wasn't the right thing to do is an uphill task. I also love how you're trying to sweep massive ethnic cleansing under the rug. "They deserved it right?"
1
I love this channel, he gets information out long before most do. We'll probably be seeing what he is talking about elsewhere in about 24 hours. With that out of the way, what is going on is absolutely crazy. Has the IDF really deteriorated this badly in the past decade? Not to take anything away from Hamas's crazy insurgency/combined warfare tactics but they're essentially a group of rag tag militia living in an open air prison. No high tech, nowhere to even really train. Again how is this possible. Is Hamas magically overpowered or is Israel A LOT weaker than anyone ever imagined?
1
@Chococo858. You didn't get the memo that Europeans no longer have the abiility to make such decisions? Those decisions are made in Washington and Europe simply falls in line. Europe is filled with weak and failing vassal states. As far as Turkey surviving or not surviving, many people would bet they're going to survive a lot longer than the EU is.
1
@Light_spot_ All that may or may not be true but that isn't the point. THe point is in your original post you literally said what Europe should do. Then in your next post you say "I'm not even speaking about Turkish European relations." What are you smoking bro? Forget making rational arguments, you can't even seem to remember what you originally said lol

@Eltonwild5648. Egypt<---They don't really make their own choices, it's a vassal state. Who ever pays their bills decides who they hate or don't hate. Saudi Arabia<---- They want to be the top dogs in the region.

@ataab9861 How insane do you have to be to assume that someone with opinion X must be from country Y? That right there shows you don't believe in being rational or even the truth. The world is simple to people like you. If you're from this country you must hold this opinion. If you're from that country you must hold this opinion. This is insanity. I wonder if it's genetic. I have heard that many people in Iran are inbred. Is that true?
1
@s123-v3x Yes but you do realize they're genetically damaged inbreds right? If I tried to teach my dog how to play a piano, even if I was the best piano instructor she still wouldn't be able to do it. Now if they weren't genetically damaged inbreds, yes it would help a lot
1
@SpeedyV, Because it would be hard to convince people to send money to an occupying force which illegally invaded their neighbor and ethnically cleansed 800,000 civilians. Imagine trying to collect money for that?
1
@speedyv6247 How is it a lie that this region is internationally recognized Azeri territory? How is it a lie that Armenia savagely invaded this area in the 1990s? How is it a lie that all Azeris were ethnically cleansed from said territory? In what alternate universe do you live?
1
@speedyv6247 So you're basically saying if we don't like the type of government a country has we have the moral authority to invade them, steal their land and ethnically cleanse their people? Is that your argument here? It goes back to what I said earlier. Good luck selling that to any rational person.
1
@speedyv6247 So you're going to ignore 800,000 civilians savagely ethnically cleansed and harp on some vague statement about 24 days if isolation? Seriously? The fact you're trying to rationalize these things makes me wonder about you as a human being. Do you also strangle puppies for fun?
1
@etho1177 Are you referring to the Armenians ethnically cleansing 800,000 Azeris from the region it brutally occupied in the 1990s?

@RussianBot-kp8wn Oddly enough you're doing the same exact thing no? Considering in this conflict happened because Armenia illegally invaded their neighbor's territory in the 1990s and ethnically cleansed 800,000 Azeri civilians. You trying to whitewash that or sympathize with it? O a scale of 1-10 how horrible of a human being are you?
1
And who is going to pay for that?
1
@ikman3410 Yes for that you'd need to own the world reserve currency. Good luck with that one lol
1
Why would they do that? Being in Nato prevents Nato from attacking you. At least that is probably how the Turks see it.

@Red Comet, Greece? lol That is like being trained for the 100 meter dash by a guy in a wheel chair.

@RedComet666 True but I'm not sure if it's better than nothing. It is essentially nothing.
1
Yes they are but with very few numbers. Essentially just there to protect the projects of their construction companies.

@KK-zc3wy The terrain was also a large determining factor. Your technology and firepower advantages are multiplied in flat terrain. Where as in mountainous terrain, the entire game changes. How do you think the Taliban survived for so long in the mountains of Afghanistan.

They're probably the biggest threats to them.

@@kzgntosbaga6255 I thought my post was quite clear on who I was talking about.

@fafa-ww9xs Yes the ones in the North near the Caucasus mountains do. What about the rest of the country?

@fafa-ww9xs I haven't looked at the specific DNA mapping of that country but I'd bet everything I have that what you're saying is outright impossible.

@zaboybagoi8636 Is this something you want to be true? Or is this something you actually know to be true? Two very different things. Also any links confirming this?

@astrodas1910 Absolutely no one is dying that. But we were talking specifically talking about DNA. If the conversation is wider and we talk about culture and how people view themselves you're 1000% right.
1
Why would anyone backup the side which was illegally occupying another nation's internationally recognized territory? Not to mention the ethnic cleansing of 800,000 civilians it savagely ethnically cleansed from there. The fact you hope to help this says a lot about you as a person. Do you also strangle puppies for fuN?
1
@karigost.2739 Your subjective view of things truly can't get over simple irrefutable facts. 1. Is Nagorno Karabakh internationally recognized Azeri territory? 2. How many nations can you name who don't legally recognize it as Azeri territory? 3. Armenia illegally invaded said territory (which wasn't theirs) and ethnically cleansed over 800,000 civilians in the 1990s. These are irrefutable facts. You're welcome to try to refute these 3 point. Good luck.

Yes he is their man to a point they tried to oust him and get him killed in a coup. Then used billions of dollars trying to topple him in the elections. Good call Sahhaf1234. lol

@Roll Out, probably not. This terrain is literally one of the easiest in the world to defend. Even with a lack of manpower and tech it should still be defendable. The trouble is the people defending it had very little training nor did they have much of a will to fight. Hell 400 Azeri commandos took an entire city defended by well entrenched 2000 Armenian defenders. Your comment about the "Will of armenians to fight is greater than the Azeris" is that same trope which led to the Armenians not being prepared. The stupid believe in their "racial superiority" that put them in this humiliating defeat.
1
@nickmansfield1 It's one of the most mountainous terrain on the planet, almost impossible to move large concentrations of material and men around. One of the hardest places in the world for offensive actions. Which is why most people thought it was impossible, especially with a dug in heavily armed defense. People underestimated how poorly trained the Armenian troops were and how much corruption and mismanagement had whittled down their ability to perform. It was kind of shocking to be fair.
1
@nickmansfield1 Yes but few battlefields have that much mountainous terrain. Not to mention the horrid infrastructure there. Most objective observers thought of the Azeris attacked they'd lose an insane amount of men. The fact the Armenian army broke after a few weeks defending (again) one of the easiest places on the planet to defend was shocking.
1
@nickmansfield1 Civilians blending in to civilian populations turns into a different problem all together with subduing an insurgency rather than the actual war and defending/attacking territory. You might want to do a bit more research about the terrain of NK and how seemingly impossible it is to traverse.
1
@thathandsomedevil0828 this is not only false it is demonstrably false. If America stopped aid and weapon shipments, Israel would collapse in a few months
1
@ArmoSlug Armoslug, let me try to understand your argument here. So because you feel you have some ancient historical claim on a piece of land it gives you the right to invade another nation's internationally recognized borders and brutally ethnically cleanse 800,0000 civilians? Hmmm If all nations behaved like this, literally 80% of the planet would have to get ethnically cleansed. What you're proposing is absolute madness.
1
@fn6795. French bases are all going to get shut down 1 by 1. They no longer have expansive energy and have shrinking influence day by day. They'll be a 4th rate nation in the coming decades. The idea of them being able to keep military bases abroad is ridiculous. UK will only be allowed to keep theirs if they're useful to America.
1
@vargusdread8740 As much as I detest the tin pot wanna be dictator in Canada called Trudeau. I wouldn't compare Macron to him. Most of the damage Trudaeu can do is confined to Canada. Macron is insane, he is trying to meddle in global affairs and project military power his nation simply doesn't have. He is 1000x more dangerous to the world than Trudeau
1
@Sniperboy5551 Not sure it is that bad. France for all intents and purposes is a pretty irrelevant nation. Except for the fact Macron doesn't understand he is running a 3rd rate nation and starts causing trouble as if he runs a first rate nation. Scary stuff.

ISLAMMEHMEDOV Also I think I saw in an earlier post that you're a Crimean Tatar? Are you still in Crimea?

Not sure how that alliance benefits Greece. It isn't like France can actually do anything in the event of a conflict.

@canerc6668 lol To be fair that army they had at the time which was WRECKED was probably still leagues ahead of the capabilities of the modern French military.
1
@canerc6668 Sometimes how much you spend doesn't always equate to how effective your force is. France right now spends more than most nations but it doesn't change the fact their military is completely and utterly inept.
1
@Cingar53 Interesting you say that. Let me now ask you a question. How do you now feel about Turkey helping spark an assault in Syria to help Israel who got their butts kicked in Lebanon? Do you think it is a good thing Turkey is saving Netanyahu by blocking the roads that arm Hezbollah? If so, why is Turkey working so hard to help Israel. I'd really like to know.
1
@binbasesatoktayyldran5236 You really didn't understand the sarcastic tone of his post? Seriously?
1
My man, I've been a big fan of your channel for years. Avid watcher. Your last video about Israel invading Hezbollah was such a monumental disaster, I legit just stopped watching your videos. Considering how badly you delved into false narrative crafting in your last video about Israel I didn't even bother watching this one. If you want to keep your audience which loves this channel for it's fact based information, I'd recommend you stick to videos about Ukraine (the topic you seem to do a very good job at) Even if this video above wasn't narrative crafting BS like the last one, most won't know because they simply won't watch another one of your Israel videos after the last ones.
1
@ no one is interested in who you miss or don’t miss. Fact is this guy went down the road of fake news and after the blowback he didn’t make such videos fir quite a while
1
@Greek, Except Armenia soil didn't get attacked. Now if you're going to make the intellectual argument that this region should belong to Armenia. Then you'd have to concede that North Cyprus should be given to Turkey. It's a similar situation. So do you believe militarily occupying another nation's internationally recognized territory is wrong? Or do you think it's okay? You can't have it both ways.
1
@rackhamlerouge6787 How do you feel about what France is doing in Africa? Robbing these nations blind, stealing their resources and then arming terrorist organizationst to attack and destabilize the few leaders there who stand up against this theft?
1
@Ironpetals2964 Do most French people understand that picking a fight you aren't equipped to deal with isn't a wise idea? A nation with weak military capabilities like France doesn't have the luxury to be making bold moves like this. If you're a 3rd rate nation, it is wise to understand it and behave like one.
1
@Ironpetals2964 When you say the dominate military of Europe, I'm thinking perhaps Russia? Because honestly no other European nation has the ability to project any sort of military power in a protracted conflict. Maybe Poland, maybe. France like a former French military general said is a crocadile. Big mouth small arms. Not taking nukes into consideration, France would probably lose a field war to a tiny nation like Azerbaijan.
1
@Ironpetals2964 You can have all the cool toys you like, I fail to see how they would work without any ammunition or the logistics to get them to the battlefield. That isn't me saying this, that is the complain of most retired French generals. We saw this "mighty" French army in 2014 during the Libya operation. Americans were just supposed to be backup and the French would do the job. After 3 days the French forces were spent and America had to step in and finish the job. Couldn't handle a small no fly zone over Libya which barely even had an air force. This is the French military. Facts>Your emotions.
1
@hahahuhu9828 The French ruling elite don't seem to really care what the "French people" think. I think they've made this very obvious time after time after time. Anyone who hasn't noticed this isn't paying attention. The globalists will decide what the Macron regime does. Not the French people obviously. You think the French people wanted millions of migrants? Well you got them anyway. You have no say in what is done in your name.

For a guy who has the word Strategic in your name it's interesting how non strategic a statement that was. Bordering on ridiculous insanity which isn't going to happen.

@Bored_Trumpet Yea experience there is quite simple and without many hassles. They seem to have good relations with the Afghans and considering they've been invited there to build stuff their military staff don't seem to have to deal with any bouts of violence. Probably like a Semi vacation for the troops there. Doubt they've had to fire a single shot. I guess things are different when you're actually invited somewhere, instead of barging in uninvited lol

@lolnoobus Anyone who followed this war knows those missiles started early in the conflict and lasted until the end.
1
And how exactly will you power those industries if you don't control the supply routes for energy? You do understand how the world works right? For god's sake you don't even know that Karadag is not Karabakh lol Why are you even commenting on things obviously above your paygrade?
1
@sahhaf1234 It's fairly obvious you don't know what the expression "above your paygrade means." Controlling supply routes applies to anyone with the ability to do so. Also no one claimed you need to enter large wars to do so. You just seem utterly confused about how the world works.
1
@ukchatman4920 I highly doubt it's a case of Israel having Hamas right where they want them. Hamas essentially humiliated the IDF by striking so deep into Israel with nothing more than crude weapons. Now Israel is going to walk into Gaza, which is a lose lose situation for them. They're either going to get embarrassed there or they're going to kill like 100 thousand civilians which is essentially going to help most Arab nations break their peace deal with them and isolate them diplomatically and economically in the region. I can't think of any way this playing out where Israel walks out in better shape than when they walked in. Not to mention their air of invincibility has been shattered. Which itself was a deterrent since the 1970s. Hamas might get wrecked but they were willing to get wrecked to put Israel in this no win situation. Also your contention that the "world" being on Israel's side is quite ridiculous. The vast majority of the global south sees Israel in the big picture as the occupier and the Palestinians as the victims. Not to mention the global south's combined population is quite a bit larger than the west who for the most part supports Israel. The reality is, the majority of the world is not with Israel on this. Just the really loud nations are, like America and England.
1
Z Turkey is immeasurably more advanced militarily than Ukraine, the same Ukraine Russia is having trouble with. Russia had trouble dealing with the 8 old school drones Turkey sold to Ukraine. How exactly would they handle 2000 of those things which aren't using old tech? I don't think that is a fight Russia wants to pick.
1
Yea go ask the Russians how loyal the Armenians have been lately lol
1
@Tabgaculugbugra Yes and I'm saying that it seems some things never change. How'd the Ottoman trust in their most loyal ethnic group work out in the end?
1
@ban_eira Probably because his video was about the military aspect of what happened. Probably also for the same reason he didn't get into detail about the murders of the IDF which are probably 1000x on a higher scale than what you're talking about. Highlighting the atrocities of one side while completely ignoring a longer lasting and much larger scale atrocities of another side is nothing short of madness and a complete disregard in trying to understand a situation. Not even to mention the sheer amount of fake news and propaganda from both sides on this issue. With the propaganda from the Israelies obviously much more powerful when you compare their resources and influence to that of the Palestinians. Harping on one single event in a chain of 10000 events kinda misses the point.
1
@cant_Comment You will see a lot of oddities when dealing with people who live in the most propagandized society the human race has ever seen.
1
There is no "who was behind this war." It's more a matter of "what was behind this war." This war happened because Armenia invaded it's neighbor's internationally recognized territory and ethnically cleansed over 800,000 Azeri civilians from said territory. Slaughtering that many civilians doesn't become "okay" because of their religion.
1
@Sabundy The problem is that you didn't say anything about it. There is an 800lbs elephant in the room which caused this war and you're making ridiculous statements about this war without taking that into account. This isn't a matter who "believes what." This is a matter what is and what isn't. This conversation is basically going like this. You: Why do objects fall Me: There is something called gravity. You: I never mentioned gravity, you're free to believe what you want. Me: WTF.
1
@s123-v3x Them supporting a nation which isn't of their own religion doesn't make them not of that religion. That is one of the dumbest things I've ever heard.

@deputykirsanov7314 The fact they begged the French also shows their level of ignorance about the world. What exactly did they expect France to do? France doesn't have the clout or military capability to intervene in that part of the world.

A lot richer. And yes it's a huge mismatch. Which makes it even more insane that Armenia was illegally occupying this nation's territory. It's madness lol
1
@youryoutubeyoda You're never going to live comfortably if you don't project influence around your region to begin with. Cattle isn't going to help your trade deals in the long term nor help you safeguard your energy supplies. A lot of the reasons the nation is suffering is also due to the insane corruption of the people. It's an extremely corrupt society which makes it difficult for anything to run smoothly. Hell you yourself have probably tried to scam someone in the past 2 weeks yourself lol

@julius43461 Well it wouldn't be a horrible precedent if both sides came to an agreement.

@ΚωνσταντίνοςΜαργέτης-ζ2κ How about 2020? Now is this what you actually believe? Or is this what you want to believe?

@James Freeman, also because it would be a hard sell. Helping the side which is illegally occupying their neighbor's territory, not to mention the 800,000 civilians they ethnically cleansed from it. Again, very very hard sell to get everyone on board with that.
1
@jamesfreeman7954 The MSM had little coverage of this and the little they did have they literally tried to defend the side which was legally wrong. It's also not that Armenia offers nothing geopolitically, it's more so a matter of it being an area the west cant' enter.
1
@AG-vb6vv Yes Armenia has faced genocide at the hands of Turkey. So if it's wrong for the Turks do to this over 100 years ago, what makes you think it's okay for Armenians to do the same thing to the Azeris just a few decades ago? You do realize you sound like a lunatic no?
1
@AG-vb6vv So said every single war crimes denier in the history of war crimes deniers. Do you guys all buy the same "how to deny war crimes" guide book or something? Why would I support one group who recently committed genocide against another group, merely due to the fact that they themselves were subject to genocide by someone else 100 years ago? Do you have any idea how crazy that sounds? So again have you been studying how the Turks deny war crimes that you're using the same exact tactics? "Oh it never happened" "The numbers are inflated" "they did worse to us" "both sides committed crimes" "They deserved it because of some historical XYZ." "It's exaggerated" "It's propaganda by XYZ" Hmm where have I heard all these same excuses before? Oh and btw, 800,000 Azeri civilians were ethnically cleansed from that region when the Armenians illegally seized it. That is no small number and please don't tell me they all up and vanished into thin air like a fart in the wind.
1
@AG-vb6vv Except innocents were killed, A LOT OF THEM. Also you don't need to be from ethnic group 1 or 2 to be a war crimes denier. Which you seem to be working really hard to do. Do you also club baby seals as a hobby? On a side note if the Azeris start slaughtering civilians and the rest of them started fleeing, then yes it would be ethnic cleansing. Unfortunately for your talking point, that hasn't happened. In fact it's been quite the opposite. When the Armenians illegally invaded NK over 30,000 civilians were slaughtered and 800,000 ethnically cleansed. Now the Azeris have invaded it and less civilians have died than normally do from car accidents. Pretty interesting compare and contrast no? You need to understand that FACTS > YOUR FEELINGS.
1
Bog je Srbin So the Turks killing 1.5 million Armenians well over 100 years ago is somehow more important than the Armenians ethnically cleansing over 800,000 Azeris not too long ago? Objectively it's quite the opposite. The criminals who perpetrated the killings of Armenians in 1915 are all dead. The Criminals who perpetrated the ethnic cleansing of the Azeris in the 1990s are still alive and still not in jail. I find it surreal that you'll want to elevate knowledge of one crime against humanity and completely ignore another. It doesn't work that way.
1
@asala2116 One doesn't need to be a paid troll to see insanity and feel the need to point it out. Is that what you do? You make insane arguments and when they're pointed out you get triggered and scream troll? Is your debate position this weak? Is this what you do? You go online and glorify ethnic cleansing and war crimes?
1
@rayman991 Who knows and at this point who really cares right? The conflict is resolved. All left is for Armenia to pay reparations to the families of the 800,000 civilians it ethnically cleansed in the 1990s.

@Arteus_Hoplit Wasn't the North liberated in 1973?

Yup they've been at this for quite a while. It really ramped up during the Obama administration. Obama essentially pushed them into a corner where they realized they had to go it alone. And that is what they've been doing with some degree of success.

@bluephonixe7371 answer the question
1
@edvard, Once you guys learn to get along with your neighbors, you'll be able to get back on your feet. Until you learn that simple lesson, it's rough times ahead.
1
@edvard8850 Yup, you guys have gone so deep into the depths of cognitive dissonance that I worry you'll never climb out. But until you do, like I said tough times ahead for you guys.
1
@edvard8850 Again until you guys learn to get along with your neighbors life won't be easy. You guys literally have territorial claims on every single one of your neighbors except Iran. The Azeris, Turks and Georgians get along just fine. yet Armenia has a problem with every single one of those countries. Think about that for a second.
1
@edvard8850 Armenia and Georgia DO NOT have normal relations. If they did, why did Georgia support Azerbaijan in this war? If they had normal relations why is Armenia making territorial claims on Georgia? Also you're referring to the leader of a country which had their internationally recognized territory attacked and illegally occupied for 30 years. Not to mention the trauma of 800,000 of their civilians being ethnically cleansed from this area in the 1990s. You can imagine them to be angry no? The Armenians haven't gotten over what the TUrks did to them over 100 years ago. You expect the Azeris to forget what Armenia did to them in just 30 years?
1
It is French trained what did they expect? 😂
1
If that was the case how did 2000 Armenian soldiers lose Susha to 400 Azeris who had no drone cover because of fog. Explain that one. This mindset you have is actually what led to your defeat. This idea of the racial superiority giving you a false sense of security
1
@Koranergiz117. I think you fail to realize what insurgency means. One can be an insurgency group which uses methods of terror to achieve their goals. You're splitting hairs here claiming they're not an insurgency group. They absolutely are.

And now we're sending this woke army into a potential sh!t storm. I fear this won't end well.

@vanja2565 For those who have a decent knowledge of that history it's quite amazing how much more fierce the Serbs fight when fighting for the Ottomans.
1
@vanja2565 If you look at the historical record that isn't exactly true. If it were they wouldn't have been so easily occupied for so long. If they actually fought as well as they did for the Ottomans (which was quite often) when facing them (which was rare) the situation might have been different. Honestly I'm not sure if the Ottomans would have expanded as fast and as far without the extreme loyalty of Serbian fighters. I guess you could say Serbians deserve some credit for the growth of that empire.
1
@vanja2565 It would be false if that specific grass you're referring to was dying and yellow. You underestimate just how many times the Serbians joined the Ottomans in battle during the Empire's growth phase. Delving into a few books would remedy for that. Just like looking at dying grass and understanding it's yellow and not green.
1
@vanja2565 You've gotta be kidding me. I'm not even a historian and I can rattle off 3 major wars the Serbians turned the tide of for the Ottomans. When the conquered South Eastern Anatolia, (Kings and Generals has an entire episode on it) an entire Serbian detachment helped them win. When they had to fight Timor from the east, again the Serbians fought like maniacs for the Ottomans. One of the Ottoman's major incursions into modern day Romania was also done with a huge Serbian detachment. These are just off the top of my head. I'm sure there are 100s more if we bothered looking them up. Fact is the Serbians played a HUGE role in how fast and how far the Ottoman empire grew.
1
Armenia won the first Karabakh war because they were armed to the teeth with Russian weapons while the Azeris had nothing. It was basically fully armed military fighting civilians. When they had to actually face people who shoot back, well we know how they reacted to that in 2020. I do agree with you that Armenia is corrupt to the gills though. But they do seem to have bigger problems than their corruption. The mass delusion and societal cognitive dissonance forces them to make some really bad decisions as well.
1
@Denisk751. That situation is so bad our government doesn't even bother giving a justification for it. They just say ISIS over and over again, as if that is why our troops are magically stationed near all the oil reserves lol
1
@Prato do Povo, the EU wasn't silent. They made remarks condemning the Azeris but they also had to be super careful. It's not a good look when you're condemning the side which is enforcing international law and defending the side breaking it. The EU was put in an awkward position. But their behavior on the matter wouldn't have changed anything, EUrope doesn't have that kind of clout. The Azeris would have basically just told them to piss off.
1
@Pouria Jafarikia, So you're going to pray for the side which illegally invaded it's neighbor and ethnically cleansed 800,000 civilians? What are you praying for exactly? That they do it again?

@plasmaticmedia518 no Iranian ever tried to take my freedoms away either
1
@Chris Tos, You're right this was kind of like justice for Armenia. Frontier justice.
1
@thecossackcrusaderofholybr8448 I guess when the Armenians figure out that invading other nation's internationally recognized territory and brutally ethnically cleansing 800,000 civilians was not the best of ideas. They'll be fine, when they figure that out.
1
@sakogekchyan7366 I'm not exactly sure that detracts from my answer to your question. It's an answer which should be heeded.
1
@sakogekchyan7366 "Your people." You believe you can make decisions for people who you don't live near based on what exactly? Your level of hubris is quite terrifying. As far as Azeris I've never even met an Azeri in my life. Nor do I try to make decisions for them which won't affect me one bit but will change their lives. You know, because you'd have to be a real selfish douche bag to think like that right?
1
@sakogekchyan7366 You say people aren't starving yet when I look it up the per capita income of Armenia is around 1,800 dollars. Compare that with your comfortable income that you probably earn in California. Now within that 1,800 a simple search can show you that doesn't even tell the full story because wealthy people's are also included in that. Not to mention the level of corruption in that country is through the roof so the majority of that wealth is in the hands of the very few. So what does that leave your average poor Armenian villager? Less than 500 dollars per year? I'd imagine that isn't an easy situation for them and the only way to rectify that situation is through trade. You can't trade with the world if you're a landlocked nation with no relation to the only nations which give you an exit route to the sea. Not to mention if you're blocked out of the largest markets in your region. As far as Georgia, they aren't too interested in dealing with Armenia either. Like with their other two neighbors Armenia also has territorial claims on Georgia. The only bordering nation Armenia doesn't have aggressive territorial claims is Iran. You know Iran is basically cut off from the western economic system right? Not to mention you're in trouble when the only neighbor you get along with is the insane Islamic Republic of Iran. I can't think of one nation on the planet which has put themselves in such a situation with their policies on the planet. It seems to me Armenia's biggest enemy isn't their neighbors, it's the fact their country is essentially run by people who don't have to deal with the repercussions of the policies they push. The nation is literally run by people who literally don't live there and the political pressure they push which makes for some of the most self destructive foreign policy I've seen from any nation on the entire planet. Armenia isn't poor because Armenians are idiots or are simply lazy. Unlike Azeris who seem to be nowhere around here in the west I've met tons of Armenians. They aren't idiots nor are they lacking the industrious trait. So again why is the country so poor and in such terrible state? I'd imagine the problem is you and the millions of people like you. Who essentially run the policy of that nation from thousands and thousands of miles away. Until that stops, those poor villagers are screwed. Having massive issues with 3 of your 4 neighbors is nothing short of insanity. You'll claim your neighbors are insane and impossible to get along with but that begs the question on how Georgia gets along with both Turkey and Azerbaijan just fine and does a massive amount of trade with them. You guys want to run a Nazi type ethno centered foreign policy? That is fine, you can do as you please in your own country. But being that aggressive when you're the weakest state in the region is one of the craziest things I've ever seen in foreign policy. No group of people are stupid enough to behave like this, unless of course if you're one of the few nations where people who don't live there control the political atmosphere.

There is no chance France is going to officially step into the Ukrainian war with troops. 1. what troops? 2. The few fighting ready troops they do have, what are they going to fight with? France only has enough ammunition for a few weeks in a large scale wall (if that) 3. France is a 3rd and perhaps 4th rate fighting force. Their troops would get slaughtered over there.

@Free World, so you think it was wise for Armenia to be illegally occupying the territory of a nation that much richer than it?

@michaelweaver2627 No nation is going to cluster their munitions manufacturing. If it was this easy to destroy munitions pants, wars would never last long. But they do. This idea that Ukraine is going to put a dent into Russia's arty shell manufacturing to a point it will hinder the Russians is a pipe dream.

@Z Yes because it's not possible that at that the Azeris are mad because their land was illegally invaded and occupied along with 800,000 of their civilians being ethnically cleansed. Nahhh, that can't be the reason they're mad, no way....

@lollllolll. Even though I'm not part of the group you're saying ya'll too and I don't speak for them, I can confidently say you aren't speaking from a position of knowledge. I'm not sure if you're aware of the relationship between the Turks and the EU these days, making a statement like "Ya'll shat your pants when the EU banned talks" is an extremely odd thing to say. As far as them speaking Kurdish and Arabic, at what point has Nato helped that country in any of their conflicts with Arabic or Kurdish speakers? You've also called England a power house. I've never heard of a power house being a vassal state that hides behind the skirts of another. As an American I can confidently say two things. 1. You seem to not know enough about the region you're speaking on to make any rational points. 2. As an American I can confidently tell you that your nation is a vassal state to my government. You don't make policy, we do. You just follow it. That isn't within the definition of a "power house." You're a dying and decaying nation and your government knows your long term existence and survival is through being our vassal state.

@metalmesh7251 I'm not exactly sure what you're asking and what point you're trying to get across. It all just seems incoherent to me.

@Aren Berberian, if collectively as a society you guys didn't believe in this ridiculous notion of your racial superiority over your neighbors, it might have given your society cause to actually prepare a proper defense. But you viewed your enemy as "dumb monkeys." Your leaders didn't "purposefully lose this war." Your society in general went full retard on this one and paid the price.

I don't think this guy has an agenda other than putting out content and making money. I've seen videos with heavy agendas, this isn't one of those videos. He makes a real effort to simply explain what is going on.
