@emmanuelcalderon1982 I'd imagine the nearly half a million people ethnically cleansed when Armenian militia groups illegally seized the region would disagree with you. Or are you trying to sweep ethnic cleansing under the rug?

@Qernanded, I'm fairly sure Azerbaijan received zero military aid from Israel. Like all nations do, Israel sold weapons and Azerbaijan purchased them.

@turcarumimperator1395 I don't think we can classify this as a "war." It was more like a police action. Azerbaijan kicked out illegal militia groups from Azeri territory.

@Rez T, I'd imagine both the Azeris and Armenians disagree with your statement. This is one of those conflicts where there is a clear winner and jubilation on one side and a clear losing side which is dejected with this complete and total loss.

I should make a video called "Why war mongers and war criminals love Vox news."

@Rolando Obanos, this wasn't really a war. It was more like a police action with Azerbaijan pushing illegal militia groups out of it's own territory. It was a pretty clean operation which was very quick and very little civilian casualties. Not really much to report for foreign media outlets.

@Christhian Mejia Noriega, as far as conflicts go this one was more cut and dry than usual. One nation illegally occupying their neighbor's lands after massacring and ethnically cleansing half a million civilians in the 1990s. 30 years later that nation comes back and pushes these illegal militia groups off it's land and returns the relatives of those who were massacred off their land.

@AZA-ss1ic I am a proponent of recognizing the Armenian genocide which happened over 100 years ago. I am also a proponent of recognizing the ethnic cleansing of over half a million Azeris and the illegal occupation of their territories when I was in grammar school. I just find people like you extremely interesting. Who want to recognize the Armenian genocide which was so long ago but when it comes to the massive ethnic cleansing of half a million Azeris which happened recently and was perpetrated by people still alive the "ifs, ands and buts" start.

@shlomoshlomo963 They did have census numbers of that region pre war. 800,000 thousand civilians used to live there. After the war there were zero. You do the math.

@ehs1452 If we're going to get into hypotheticals with no basis, I'd imagine anyone can ethnically cleanse anyone else at any time and any place. It's a bit hard to imagine a nation which has over 20 million of a specific ethnic group in their own nation is somehow magically going to decide to ethnically cleanse that same ethnic group somewhere else. Not exactly plausible in reality but would be plausible in the world of cheap rhetoric with no basis in reality.

@ignorantphilosopher3270 Is it your contention that the side which wins and ethnically cleanses nearly half a million people is proper behavior and we should simply call them strong? Law of the jungle?

@Mike N, it's hard to be the aggressor when you're simply pushing illegal militia forces off your internationally recognized territory. They're essentially enforcing a plethora of UN resolutions on the matter. Nothing like Serbians invading Croatia. It is more akin to the Croatian counter attack to push Serbia off Croatian territory.

Yes the Republican party is broken. But what is the alternative? A party trying to convince me men can get pregnant? So we're left with a choice between broken and absurd?

@polina0394 You do realize you're talking about one of the most corruption nations on the planet right? A nation which has such little freedom of expression that the entire media apparatus was telling the people they were winning the war, while their military was being decimated.
2
@polina0394 No one ever claimed any of these nations were free. But after seeing what I saw during this war, Armenia being 61st on that list makes me question how well they research these small out of the way nations.

@CelenovaYT International law doesn't agree with your statement. Nor does reality.
2
@ehs1452 Do you have any evidence of said ethnic cleansing or is it one of those things where if you sling enough mud it sticks?
2
Odd that the CIA's involvement in this was completely left out.

@Sean Keeney we only have two types of politicians. 1. The vast majority : Establishment politicians 2. The vast minority: Non establishment politicians. That is it, that is all we have. If you look at what policies they support or don't supporting there is literally no difference between Obama, Romney, Hillary or Mitch McConnell.
2
@Kevork Assadour, are you playing the tried and tested technique of ethnic cleansing denial? Usually the first counter to all ethnic cleansing deniers is "oh they did it to us too." Odd, how you sound just like the Turks who deny what they did to the Armenians, using all their tactics.
1
@Matthew Griffiths, that's generally not the case when you have such a huge gap in military capabililties. Mexico was upset about losing land in California to America, didn't kick off well with them either. Not much they could do about it. Not much Armenia can do about Azerbaijan either.
1
@polina0394 It probably is a thing but it hasn't dragged them into wars they simply can't win. Nor has it driven them to lie to their people about winning a war while they're being destroyed.
1
@polina0394 So it's your contention that Armenia is not hopelessly corrupt? I'd like to see what your premise exactly is before we start here.
1
Where was Iran when Armenia invaded Azeri territories and ethnically cleansed over half a million Azeri civilians? Oh yea, Iran was helping arm the ones don't the ethnic cleansing. So please save us this Iran as the hero of the oppressed. In some cases it is, in other cases it is helping the oppressor.

@theanglo-lithuanian1768 I'd imagine international law isn't interested in your subjective view of what belongs to whom based on who was where 4,000 years ago. Imagine they were? The world would be in chaos.

@davidarmenphoto Humans have been a migratory species throughout human history. So essentially you're saying anyone who wasn't in a specific place since forever should be slaughtered like cattle? If the world took your point of view 99.9% of all humans would be murdered. Is that the argument you're making? Again according to your logic most of us here in America should be brutally murdered too?
1
It's usually about both.
1
@Queen Apryll M. Yes the UN can be useless but what exactly did you expect from the UN on this one? Azerbaijan was easily enforcing the UN resolutions and international law on this matter on their own, did you expect the UN to send a military to help the Azeris or something?
1
@frederikbrandt424 Certainly not. I've been a huge proponent for recognition of the Armenian genocide for about 20 years. To a point where in college I used to hold collect signatures to add more of the topic into the curriculum. Right is right my friend and wrong is wrong. Mass slaughter is wrong regardless of who is doing the slaughtering and who is being slaughtered. I'd imagine what is really ironic are people who support recognition of the Armenian genocide yet completely and utterly ignore what was done to the Azeris a few decades ago.

@Den06 if there was ever a conflict where the outcome was fair, this was probably it. It's extremely rare when a war is justified, again this was one of those instances.
1
@CelenovaYT That's a great idea. Give nukes to a militia group which has shown it's extreme propensity to massacre civilians. That's brilliant lol
1
@CelenovaYT Good luck selling that argument lol
1
@Chris MacMahon, They were mostly stolen homes from when the Azeri civilians were massacred and ethnically cleansed in the 1990s. The people who stole those homes wanted to make sure the Azeris had nothing to come back for.

@AZA-ss1ic Ethnic cleansing denial much?
