  1. Hey! Are there any minor children here? If so, get them out of the room. That practice is rudely known as masturbation. The Book of Lies calls it onanism. --- onanism = 1. masturbation. 2. coitus interruptus. ---- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Onan
  2. The below passage is not an exclusivity of islam. ---- See what the other mickey mouse religion says about it. Hagar/Hakar the slave servant was of Egyptian Coptic origin. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hagar --- Besides, it is assumed that from that encounter Ismael/Ishmael was born that some claim to be the ancestor of the Arabs. The idiots Muhammed and Abram deserve each other. Let them screw/slay one another all they want, just leave us Christians out of it.
  3. In Islam hostage taking and enslaving is a sanctioned practice, as long as the subjects are of other ethnologies, race and religion.** In the Arabic 'abd'/abed means servant/slave as in names like 'abdallah/'abdullah. The word goes further to 'abeed , meaning enslaved/slave that is applied to black Africans. Even today many of the palace slaves in Saudia and other Arab countries are black Africans who are considered slaves,or at best castrated eunuchs and harem masters. In their language the Africans are known as abeed. Why is the peanut called fstuk 'abeed, African/slave nut? The word has entered even the Armenian language. See how many Abdulians, Abdalians you can find. **See recent stories about Nuns and Bishop hostages.
  4. It seems like she is an Assyrian, Syriac, Aramaic (from Mardin?)who had fled furkey in 1985 because of persecution of Christians. Hence her furkish sounding name. Read the English video transcript below http://gatesofvienna.net/2013/12/december-10th-the-day-of-genuine-human-rights/ 0:00 I went to the Middle East in early October, 0:04 on purpose, to study the situation on the ground, 0:08 for I am a person who likes to be 0:12 a witness herself and sees things 0:16 rather than having heard of it. 0:20 I am a refugee myself.

  5. ՀԱՐԵՒԱՆՑԻ Հարիր Եւ Անցիր Hit and Run? Please forgive if this my item seems like a Hit and Run? Hoping that no one has seen it. Some of us do. No, it does not mean Հարեվանցի neighbor/դռացի/դրացի, next door. It literally means Hit and pass Հարիր եւ անցիր, Run**. Barev Harut!*** Based on the root word հար, հարել to hit, to strike. It would be more descriptive if we rewrite it as Հարիր եւ Անցիր:** By now you know me that I Hit and Stay, I don’t Hit and Run.**** One dictionary defines it as superficial, furtive and futile. Հայկական է, Պատուական Է? Հարեւանցի? Recently I have been reading, let me rephrase it, I have been scanning a large tome of 1200 pages. The more I read the more frustrated I get. Nowhere, be it in the front or the end I can see when and where the book was written and printed, or who paid for it. One has to read all 1200 pages to find specific references. No word, name or place indices. Why are we so furtive, superficial and careless? With no respect to international rules of publishing. Հայկական է, Պատուական Է? It means. If it is Armenian it is Honorable. Don’t question.! **To see what “harel” to hit, to strike means consider, among many Զանգահարե/zangaharel, to hit, to strike the bell. ***Harut is spelled Յարութ not Հարութ There is a method to that madness. It is from to Յառնելto rise, to resurrect. As to why the Ռ turned to Ր or visa versa I have no idea. Yes I do. The R preceding the N turns to RA. In this case the word was originally based on Արի/Արել /to come (forward). **** In our neck of the woods Hit and Run is a punishable crime. Tantamount to murder. Even if one hit’s a human or animal. To see what furtive means http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fh2Vh8jwyQA http://classicalmusic.about.com/od/classicalmusictips/qt/unafurtivalagrimatext.htm Where someone has translated “furtive” as secret. It in fact literally means stolen. PS. Hit and Run seems to be and Armenian affliction, except in the case of Tehlirian when he Hit and Stayed.

    Թիւն

    ՈՒԹԻՒՆ ՆՈՐԻՑ Տղայ անունդ Յարութիւն, եկ մեզ արա բարութիւն: Yes, Outyoun Again. My least favorite grammatical abrration. I wish I could find when and by whom this madness began. Do the English add “tion” to “new” like new-tion as we do in նոր-ու-թիւն/norutiun? Please bear with me. This article is totally disjointed as I can’t decide where to begin and where to end. I have amended, added, deleted many passages during a course of several days of editing and re-editing. Again about that superfluous and inane suffix. Please! This is not nit picking, yes it is. Nor it is a declaration of War of Words. This is only a desperate attempt to save this Forum, to rid it from the clutches of hijacking and spamming. This is an open invitation to all our friends, our house linguists, the likes of Harut, Ani, Nairi, Nane, Johannes, SAS and more. to talk about Armenian subjects, without back and forth accusations and insults. In talking of the Day of Rest, I brought the following biblical quotes. http://hyeforum.com/index.php?showtopic=56274&hl= I could not find how the EA popular vernacular is, the on-line ԱՍՏՈՒԱԾԱՇՈՒՆՉ has expired, so I looked up what the hard copy written in WA had to say. I was shocked. I had never looked at it in a critical way. Of course we know that it was “translated” by non-Armenians, and how poor it is, not by the likes of Daniel Varuzhan, or Ajatian but by foreign missionaries, mainly American. **Did He say day of REST-A-TION? No, He said REST, ՀԱՆԳԻՍՏ, հանգիստի օր, հանգստեան օր:: The above quote is translated thusly. “ՀանգՍՏՈՒԹԵԱՆ :duh: DUHHH օրը միտքդ բեր, զանիկա սուրբ պահելու համար” ---- Հանգստութիւն? Why not just simply հանգիստի/ հանգստեան օրը? Where do you see the English word “rest” written as “restation”? Maybe now we know where that ridiculous suffix “utiun/ outyoun“ and the ultimate insult “ուցյուն/outsyoun” (ՀարուՑյուն?) comes from. Which opens yet another can of worms, about deleting the I as in SargIs to Sargsyan without the I. Does it come from Grabar, where the adjective Հանգիստ/ Hangist become Հանգստեան/Hangst-ian as a noun. Without the I as in SarGIs/SarGSyan. Do the English convert the adjective “rest/calm/peaceful (as in Pacific Ocean)” to “restation or calmation/խաղաղութիւն”? “Հանգիստ կաց քուրիկ , մի լացիր այդքան, լոկ պատահան մի չար խօսք է սա.”? See # 61 where Johannes said http://hyeforum.com/index.php?showtopic=18533&page=4 And here #11 Harut said http://hyeforum.com/index.php?showtopic=9604&page=1&&do=findComment&comment=115938 ==== Baptize baptism not baptization. Baptismation Մկրտում Մկրտութիւն Hebrews 4:9-11 Վասնզիան որ հանգիտը մտաւ, Ալ հանգչեցաւ իր գործերէն We have a religious rite known as Հոգեհանգիստ Rest to Souls. Do we call it Հոգեհանգստեան or Հոգեհանգ ստի? No. We simply call it Հոգեհանգիստ: Rest of Souls, not restation. http://hy.wikisource.org/wiki/Հոգեհանգիստ http://hyeforum.com/index.php?showtopic=16242 Proverbs 9:10 The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom, and knowledge of the Holy One is understanding. The first ever phrase by our Translators. And ever since then we have been held hostage by that foreign culture. Why was their first translation was from that Book of Lies the Bible, Not the Odyssey, the Iliad, not even Sinbad the Sailor? *** Nothing worse than a Born Again, Neo-Christian! http://www.pagef30.com/2010/07/first-words-ever-written-in-armenian.html Proverbs 1;2 The first words ever written in Armenian - ճանաչել զիմաստութիւն եւ զխրատ, իմանալ զբանս հանճարոյ Առակաց Իմաստութեան սկիզբըՏերոջը վախն է Does above English say wise-ation or wisenation? Then why it is with that stupid suffix “outyoun/outyan”? In Armenian it is Իմաստութեան ? Why not just իմաստի or իմանման? Perhaps remotely related. Matt.1 [1] The book of the generation of Jesus Christ, the son of David, the son of Abraham. 1 Գիրք ազգաբանութեան Յիսուս Քրիստոսի՝ Դաւթի որդու, Աբրահամի որդու:՝ My Hard copy written in WA has this. Գիրք ծննդեան Յիսուս Քրիստոսի, Դաւիթի որդւոյն… Note the I between Ւ/W/V and Թ/T are removed. Besides. Why is DaviD spelled ending with the letter Թ/Th. To not forget the WA TaviT(h). ԹաւիԹ: Where the D becomes Տ/տ, and in turn it becomes T Where does the I in Դաւիթ/David go in the above quote from the EA? Don’t tell me that they in Yerevan are reverting back to Classical Գրաբար Where հանգիստ hangist becomes հանգստեան/hangstyan without the I, just as Galoust becomes Գալստեան/Galstian, without the OU. Is it like when Սարգիս becomes Սարգսյան where the I is lost, like when the OU in KhachatOUr becomes Khachatryan . Հոգեգալուստ, (Pentecost) հոգեգալստ?*** PS. I remember when our long lost friend Vartahoor RIP, said it was the grammatical rule, end of story, period. He never told us which, and whose rule it was. I respected his intellect and knowledge, however, his toxic obsession and hatred of the so called Bourj Hamoud culture all but obscured his credibility. Did he have a personal issue? See #11 here; http://hyeforum.com/index.php?showtopic=16369 **We will come back to that. ***Were our translators writing in Arabic without the long vowels like in سرگسیان[

Khizr was born in the 1470s in the Ottoman island of Midilli (Lesbos), in the village Palaiokipos, to his father Yakup Ağa and to his mother Katerina.[1] Sources refer to Khizr as a Greek,[2][3] as a Turk,[4] or as an[5][6] by origin. His mother was referred as a local Christian Greek woman from Mytilene, the widow of an Orthodox priest.[7] His father Yakup was referred as a Greek renegade from Mytilene[8] or Turkish[1][9][10] I thought Barbaruossa/BarbaRussa meant Russian Beard.

    Santa Mullah http://www-personal.umich.edu/~rraham/khomeini.jpg Anti-Santa campaigns heat up in Turkey as Christmas arrives ISTAN-Bull A Muslim youth group and a neighborhood authority led two separate anti-Santa campaigns on the eve of Christmas in Turkey. The Istanbul University branch of a group called Anatolia Youth Association (AGD) released an illustration of a Muslim youth punching Santa Claus in the face and announced that it would make a press statement against Christmas on Dec. 26 in Istanbul. The group announced the event with a statement titled “Muslim, return to yourself!” adding that “Christmas is a Christianity practice.” The group also criticized the celebration of New Year’s Day, saying that the two dates were “mixed” and “united.” It claimed that celebrating Christmas and New Year’s Day was “wrong” and constituted “a blow dealt to Muslimism.” Earlier this week, the Şirinevler muhtar, the head of the neighborhood, hung a banner making it clear that Santa Claus was not welcome on their streets. As in recent years, Santa Claus will not be coming to Şirinevler since he is nothing to do with our traditions and our culture,” muhtar Galip Karayiğit said in the statement. “[Turk legend character] Dede Korkut will come to our houses again, and will teach our children that they did not come into this world for pleasure, that they came to distribute justice.” December/24/2013 And this Turkey requests Santa Claus’ bones from Pope Saint Nicholas, a historic Christian saint, died in 343 at the age of 73 in Demre, currently a district of the Mediterranean Turkish province of Antalya. AFP Photo The Turkey-based Santa Claus Peace Council has said it has written a letter to Pope Francis, requesting the return of the bones of Saint Nicholas. Council Chairman Muammer Karabulut said they were expecting Pope Francis to give a positive response to their request to have a meeting on the bones, which are currently in Bari, Italy. “We have been struggling for the return of the bones since 1995. State institutions have also been involved in this struggle,” Karabulut said. “So far, we have not reached a conclusion.” Saint Nicholas, a historic Christian saint, died in 343 at the age of 73 in Demre, currently a district of the Mediterranean Turkish province of Antalya. His habit of performing miracles and his reputation of giving secret gifts to the faithful made him a model for Santa Claus. December/25/2013

  25. http://gulfnews.com/in-focus/syria/saudi-arabia-accused-of-trying-to-destroy-syria-1.1269392 Saudi Arabia accused of trying to destroy Syria Damascus: Syria now views Saudi Arabia as its number one enemy and accuses it of trying to destroy the country by arming jihadists and other rebels fighting to oust President Bashar Al Assad. The Gulf states have sided with the opposition from the start of Syria’s conflict in March 2011, with Riyadh leading calls for the fall of Al Assad. Syrian Deputy Foreign Minister Faisal Muqdad said last week that Saudi Arabia was providing unfettered support for “terrorist groups” in Syria, while other nations had reviewed their positions. “I think that all those who supported these terrorist groups have the feeling now that they have made big mistakes,” Muqdad said in an interview on Thursday, referring to the rebels seeking to topple Al Assad. “The only party who is declaring the full support to the terrorist groups, to Al Qaida, is Saudi Arabia,” he said. Muqdad urged the world to press Saudi Arabia to halt its support for the rebels, to prevent what he said was “another September 11 incident”. “I think that if the world wants to avoid another September 11 incident, they must start telling Saudi Arabia ‘enough is enough’,” he said, referring to Al Qaida’s 2001 attacks on the US. Earlier this month, Al Assad’s government urged the United Nations to take a stand against Saudi support for Islamist groups whose influence has grown on the battlefield. “We call on the UN Security Council to take the necessary measures to put an end to the unprecedented actions of the Saudi regime, which is supporting takfiri (Sunni extremist) terrorism tied to Al Qaida,” the foreign ministry said in a message to UN chief Ban Ki-moon. It was the first time the Syrian government has appealed to the international body to take action against Riyadh. “Saudi Arabia is not content to merely send weapons and to finance but also mobilises extremist terrorists and sends them to kill the Syrian people,” the Syrian message said. Saudi ‘not to stand idle’ Saudi officials have simultaneously chided the West for its reluctance to intervene militarily on the side of the armed opposition. On Tuesday, the Saudi ambassador to Britain, Prince Mohammad Bin Nawaf Bin Abdul Aziz, published in The New York Times a bluntly worded assessment of the West’s policies on Syria and Iran. “We believe that many of the West’s policies on both Iran and Syria risk the stability and security of the Middle East,” he wrote in the commentary. The senior diplomat said Saudi Arabia has “global responsibilities”, both political and economic, and vowed it will continue to support the rebel Free Syrian Army and opposition fighters. “We will act to fulfil these responsibilities, with or without the support of our Western partners,” wrote the ambassador. He also acknowledged the threat of Al Qaida-linked groups in Syria arguing, however, that the best way to counter the rise of extremists among the rebels was to support the “champions of moderation”. Muqdad on Thursday said that “Saudi Arabia should be put on the list of countries supporting terrorism.” Outside regime circles, there is also growing animosity towards Saudi Arabia. Earlier this month, a film, which depicts the Saudi royal family in an unflattering light was screened at the Damascus opera house. “It was important for me to show this movie,” said director Najdat Anzour of his The King of Sands movie, which opens with Al Qaida’s 9/11 attacks on the US. “Al Qaida didn’t come from Mars but from Saudi Arabia, from the Wahhabi, extremist way of thinking,” Anzour said. Anzour said a Saudi cleric has issued a fatwa, Islamic decree, authorising his killing.
