Islam is a joke of a religion, and to be honest i follow no order of faith. Although, I till think when compared to other monotheistic religions Islam is the bottom of the totem pole.

Aratta-Kingdom Posted July 21, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 21, 2007 THREE MORE SOLDIERS SENTENCED TO IMPRISONMENT FOR TREACHERY IN AZERBAIJAN Three more soldiers were sentenced to imprisonment for treachery in Azerbaijan. According to Regnum agency the Military Court of Azerbaijan finished the trial of the three soldiers of a military unit in Fizuli. One of the soldiers Elchi Ahmedov is sentenced to 14-years in prison, the other soldier Ramin Mammadyarov – to 13 years and the third soldier Aghasalim Salimov – to 12 years in prison. According to the prosecutor, the above-mentioned soldiers, being in the sentry post, "had contacts with the Armenians, passed them on military secrets of state significance, information about the reserve regiment, its command and staff" on July-October of 2006. Azerbaijani soldiers that appear in the Armenian side will be sentenced to imprisonment for treachery in Azerbaijan. That’s why they don’t want to return to Azerbaijan after appearing in Armenia.

AK-47 Posted November 3, 2007 Report Share Posted November 3, 2007 (edited) Nakhichevan's suicide... Caucasus Reporting Service Caucasus home Azerbaijanis Flock to Turkish Town Turkish border city’s population booms as Azerbaijanis come in search of work. By Sabuhi Mammadli in Igdir (CRS No. 417 01-Nov-07) A small Turkish border city has rocketed in size because of an influx of thousands of people from the nearby Azerbaijani exclave of Nakhichevan, who are seeking a route out of poverty. Igdir is a small provincial town on Turkey’s eastern border, next door to the Autonomous Republic of Nakhichevan, the Azerbaijani region separated from the rest of the country by Armenian territory. A majority of Igdir’s 60,000 inhabitants are now Azerbaijani. The Armenian-Azerbaijani conflict over Nagorny Karabakh left Nakhichevan cut off from the rest of the country and in a deep economic crisis. The town’s mayor, Nurettin Aras, said Igdir used to be more like a village until the Nineties, when the Soviet Union collapsed and Azerbaijan became an independent state, but started booming after the border with Nakhichevan opened. Nakhichevan’s former deputy prime minister Asif Kalantarli said that during the Karabakh war, Baku would send fuel to the autonomous region via Iran, but most of it ended up being sold in Igdir. “As petrol costs more in Turkey than in Azerbaijan, Igdir became a key fuel market,” said Kalantarli. “People from nearby Turkish provinces such as Kars, Van and Erzurum came to Igdir to buy petrol. Thanks to this trade, Igdir turned from a small village into a medium-sized town.” The quickest way to reach Igdir is to drive there from Nakhichevan’s airport. A taxi will take you all the way for 20 manats, 24 US dollars. The driver who took this IWPR contributor to Igdir even offered to find a job for me there. Most of the Nakhichevanis in Igdir do work that amounts to little more than bonded labour. There are 100 families from the village of Yayji alone, all of them working on the land around Igdir. Father of three Hassan Guliev said, “For ten years now, I’ve come to Igdir to be a ‘hambal’. That’s what they call us – hambals or farmhands. Unlike others, I’m not ashamed of it. There isn’t even this kind of work in Nakhichevan, and I have a family to support.” Guliev said guest workers like him had no rights in Turkey. “We’ve been beaten by locals and policemen so many times,” he said. “Many times we’ve been mugged in dark alleyways and robbed of our money. We can’t even seek anyone’s for help to defend our rights. Everywhere we’re told, ‘You came to Turkey as tourists and have no right to work here.’ “Worst of all, the Nakhichevan authorities never come to our defence. Nuru Mamedov, the representative responsible for Igdir at the Azerbaijani consulate in Kars, does not even bother to listen to our concerns.” Asked to comment, Mamedov told IWPR he felt sorry for Azerbaijani citizens who were in a lamentable situation in Igdir, but could offer them no help. “Most of our nationals are living unregistered in Turkey and working illegally,” he said. “That is why we cannot interfere when the police deport them. I think the issue should be solved at state level. It would be good if Azerbaijan and Turkey signed an agreement abolishing visa requirements and simplifying the employment regulations for our citizens in Turkey - at least for people living in areas near the border.” Some Nakhichevanis are now deciding to head home of their own accord. Sakit came to Igdir together with his wife and two children. “I work as a ‘hambal’, my wife is a cleaner in a hotel, my elder son works as a shepherd in the village of Tuzluca near Igdir, while my younger son shines shoes in the Heidar Aliev Park in the centre of the town. We all work, but the money we make is still not enough to meet all our needs,” he said. “We have decided to save up some money to buy some sheep and return to our village. After all, it’s better to be at home among your own people.” In the meantime, many Igdir locals blame the incomers for corrupting their town. Mucahit Aydin, who heads the Igdir branch of the right-wing National Movement Party, says the town is now teeming with Azerbaijani prostitutes. “In a town with a population of 60,000, there are over 40 hotels and all of them have been operating as brothels,” he said. “Igdir prostitutes earn an average of 250 or 300 [uS] dollars a day. Their clients come from as far away as Kars, Agri and Erzurum.” “No one ever stays in some of the hotels, people go there only for the prostitutes,” said Gurban Husseinov, a Nakhichevani who rents a small jewellery shop in Igdir. “The local government has turned a blind eye to all of this. Igdir is poor compared with other Turkish towns. These hotels earn pretty good incomes from their brothels and pay high taxes. That is why the authorities say nothing.” Yusuf, who works as an administrator at the Yeni Yildiz Hotel, admitted that prostitution was going on. “These women who occupy room in our hotels pay several months up front,” he said. “If they are such profitable clients, why should I turn them out? It’s not my business to check the identity of men visiting them. They say they are relatives. What can I do about it?” “The municipal police have raided the hotels now and then,” said police officer Kemal Givarik. “But mostly these women’s documents are completely in order. That is why we cannot deport them. We deport only those who don’t have an official right to be in Turkey.” As we were crossing the border to Igdir, many women were waiting at the checkpoint having their passports checked. It transpired that the Turkish government had ordered that women should only be allowed to cross from Nakhichevan to Igdir if they were accompanied by a relative aged at least 14. An exception is made only for widows, who must produce a certificate confirming the death of their husbands. Nakhichevani human rights activist Mahomed Aliev said that even prostitutes who were deported from Turkey could slip back across the frontier by paying a bribes between 500 and 700 dollars. “The luckiest ones get married to elderly Turks and become Turkish citizens,” he added. The Nakhichevan-Turkey border is a lively place. Smugglers have found ever more inventive ways of getting around the Turkish ban on carrying more than two cartons of cigarettes into the country. They distribute two cartons to each passenger on the bus they are travelling on. Even this IWPR contributer gave in and collaborated in this illicit action. Big consignments of meat are parcelled up and transported in the same way. As well as Turks and Azerbaijanis, Igdir’s diverse population includes Kurds and Armenians. Because of the security problems posed by the PKK, the militant Kurdish rebel group which is active here, everything stops in the evenings, in contrast to the town’s busy life during the daytime. After eight in the evening, all the shops, markets, cafes and restaurants shut down, everyone goes home, and the streets are left to the Turkish police and army in their armoured personnel carriers.

Every religion has it. - But seriously, there was a French anti-trafficking (I wish I could remember their name, they were damn good) NGO n the 1990s that openly stated that the Gray Wolves were major traffickers and in fact financed their party with the Opium trade. This NGO also indicted the Aliyev regime for fully cooperating with the Gray Wolves, and only praised the Armenian government for taking anti-trafficking measures and disseminating anti-drug propaganda.

This NGO also indicted the Aliyev regime for fully cooperating with the Gray Wolves, and only praised the Armenian government for taking anti-trafficking measures and disseminating anti-drug propaganda. Here is a synposis of the US foreign affairs committee's relgional investigation compilations http://www.loc.gov/rr/frd/pdf-files/Nats_Hospitable.pdf The Caucasus Republics Because of its geographic position between the major narcotics producing region of the Golden Crescent (Afghanistan and Pakistan) and the major narcotics markets in Russia and Europe, the Caucasus region has become an important narcotics corridor. Georgia’s location on the southern border of the Russian Federation’s insurgent Republic of Chechnya-Ichkeria has made Georgia’s northern territory a base for Chechen rebel forces, estimates of whose size have varied widely. An additional factor is the weakness of post-Soviet law enforcement agencies in Armenia, Azerbaijan, and Georgia. Armenia, slightly to the southwest of the main narcotics routes, has had the least exposure to narcotics traffic. However, Azerbaijan’s southern neighbor, Iran, has established an effective anti-trafficking regime that has pushed narcotics routes northward into Azerbaijan, where corruption has invited such activity. Georgia, which is experiencing a collapse of law enforcement, the Chechen civil war on its northern border, an alarming rate of official corruption, and effective loss of control of large sectors of its national territory to separatist movements, has provided traffickers the most favorable conditions of the three countries. Armenian and Azerbaijani officials have warned that narcotics activity will increase significantly in their countries if effective interdiction measures are not taken. ****************** This above was not confirmed fully by the French NGO who had a gruelingly detailed description of who were the producers, suppliers, traffickers, government and law enforcement officials involved. I can tell you that the loudest noise was made by the Gray Wolves organization and their ties with the Aliyev regime in Baku. This route is huge and does get a healthy chunk of the Heroin trade into the US. Turkey has not been cooperative with the EU or the US DEA in this regards, and this is also another item that is kept under wraps as far as the artificial valuation of Turkey "valuable ally status" is concerned. To this day I have not seen ONE Armenian government or think tank (if there are any) exploit this reality. To their credit, the Armenian government has in fact pushed the trafficking down and has addressed it head-on, even though as the corruption story goes, there are cracks in a system full of potholes. Georgia was identified as a stopover and transfer point, but the main players are Gray Wolves, high ranking officials in Turkey, and the Baku government wholesale.

hagopn Posted November 3, 2007 Report Share Posted November 3, 2007 Found this, but no cigar yet. (what was the name of that orgnization!-->) Check the commonly known but media buried last sentence in bold. http://www.consortiumnews.com/archive/story33.html Grey Wolves Terror The news of Catli's secret police ties were all the more scandalous given his well-known role as a key leader of the Grey Wolves, a neo-fascist terrorist group that has stalked Turkey since the late 1960s. A young tough who wore black leather pants and looked like Turkey's answer to Elvis Presley, Catli graduated from street gang violence to become a brutal enforcer for the Grey Wolves. He rose quickly within their ranks, emerging as second-in-command in 1978. That year, Turkish police linked him to the murder of seven trade-union activists and Catli went underground. Three years later, the Grey Wolves gained international notoriety when Mehmet Ali Agca, one of Catli's closest collaborators, shot and nearly killed Pope John Paul II in St. Peter's Square on May 13, 1981. Catli was the leader of a fugitive terrorist cell that included Agca and a handful of other Turkish neo-fascists. Testifying in September 1985 as a witness at the trial of three Bulgarians and four Turks charged with complicity in the papal shooting in Rome, Catli (who was not a defendant) disclosed that he gave Agca the pistol that wounded the pontiff. Catli had previously helped Agca escape from a Turkish jail, where Agca was serving time for killing a national newspaper editor. In addition to harboring Agca, Catli supplied him with fake IDs and directed Agca's movements in West Germany, Switzerland, and Austria for several months prior to the papal attack. Catli enjoyed close links to Turkish drug mafiosi, too. His Grey Wolves henchmen worked as couriers for the Turkish mob boss Abuzer Ugurlu. At Ugurlu's behest, Catli's thugs criss-crossed the infamous smugglers' route passing through Bulgaria. Those routes were the ones favored by smugglers who reportedly carried NATO military equipment to the Middle East and returned with loads of heroin. Judge Carlo Palermo, an Italian magistrate based in Trento, discovered these smuggling operations while investigating arms-and-drug trafficking from Eastern Europe to Sicily. Palermo disclosed that large quantities of sophisticated NATO weaponry -- including machine guns, Leopard tanks and U.S.-built Cobra assault helicopters -- were smuggled from Western Europe to countries in the Middle East during the 1970s and early 1980s. According to Palermo's investigation, the weapon delivers were often made in exchange for consignments of heroin that filtered back, courtesy of the Grey Wolves and other smugglers, through Bulgaria to northern Italy. There, the drugs were received by Mafia middlemen and transported to North America. Turkish morphine base supplied much of the Sicilian-run "Pizza connection," which flooded the U.S. and Europe with high-grade heroin for several years. [While it is still not clear how the NATO supplies entered the pipeline, other investigations have provided some clues. Witnesses in the October Surprise inquiry into an alleged Republican-Iranian hostage deal in 1980 claimed that they were allowed to select weapons from NATO stockpiles in Europe for shipment to Iran. [iranian arms dealer Houshang Lavi claimed that he selected spare parts for Hawk anti-aircraft batteries from NATO bases along the Belgian-German border. Another witness, American arms broker William Herrmann, corroborated Lavi's account of NATO supplies going to Iran. [Even former NATO commander Alexander Haig confirmed that NATO supplies could have gone to Iran in the early 1980s while he was secretary of state. "It wouldn't be preposterous if a nation, Germany, for example, decided to let some of their NATO stockpiles be diverted to Iran," Haig said in an interview.

Aratta-Kingdom Posted November 24, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 24, 2007 http://www.cpj.org/news/2007/europe/azer07nov07na.html Eight journalists now behind bars in Azerbaijan New York, November 7, 2007—The editor-in-chief of a pro-government daily paper in Azerbaijan has been sentenced to prison on criminal defamation and insult charges, making him the eighth journalist in the country currently serving jail time. This imprisonment cements Azerbaijan position at the top of the list of countries jailing journalists in Europe and Central Asia. Nazim Guliyev, head of Ideal, was given two-and-a-half years on Tuesday in Baku’s Nasimi District Court. “We are deeply concerned by the imprisonment of yet another journalist in Azerbaijan,” said CPJ Executive Director Joel Simon. “Jailing Nazim Guliyev on defamation charges is an unacceptable response to his investigative work. We call on the Azerbaijani government to decriminalize defamation so that the country can join the ranks of democratizing societies, and to relinquish its disgraceful position as Europe and Central Asia’s leading jailer of journalists.” Ramiz Zeynalov, head of Azerbaijan’s Interior Ministry Traffic Police Department, filed a lawsuit against Guliyev after Ideal published two articles on widespread corruption within the department in May and August, local press reported. The trial began on October 29 and Guliyev did not have a lawyer, the director of the Baku-based Institute for Reporters’ Freedom and Safety Emin Huseynov told CPJ. The editor did not write the articles. Guliyev’s sentence comes a week after the Azerbaijani Court of Heavy Crimes sentenced Eynulla Fatullayev, editor of now-shuttered Gündalik Azarbaycan and Realny Azerbaijan independent newspapers, to an eight-and-a-half-year prison term.

It's all Aliev father legacy, a corrupted drug traficker leader of a local mafia who had several shares on oil and was able to take power by lying, his son took his place. Azerbaijan is a dictatorial regime and the only reason the world is closing its eyes is because of oil. Had there been no oil in that country, Artsakh would have been a part of Armenia as we speak and Azerbaijan would have been embargoed for massive corruption, traficking electoral fraud etc. Oil excuse everything. Check the recent developpements in Pakistan, the Azerbaijan goverment has been doing this for years without the West reaction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
