If, twice repeating the name of thecountry, the poet heightens the sense of his enthusiastic love of it, then asthe article title I want to reflect the distress of the people of Azerbaijan,chipped in two inter-state border.
Hard fate fell on the colonial peoples ofthe Russian Empire. Not many were able to break free from the collapse of theSoviet Union. But those who gained their freedom, is still experiencing theeffects of staying in the "prison of nations", in fact, a threat tobe back in it is very real: for example, if it were not for the requirement tostop the advance of the West Russian tank columns to Tbilisi in 2008, and Donot get caught American frigate off the coast of Georgia and Georgians to belogged twice voluntarily under the protection of the people of Moscow. How canyou not mention, I would say, unique ability to liberate the people from theRussian indispensable subsequent accession to the empire. This feature of the Russianbestow the freedom of peoples, has a long tradition that goes red (read bloody)thread, which is sewn patchwork empire, and recorded in the history books ofthe USSR, and even though, in the case of Afghanistan, it has slightlyweakened, but in the long run none of neighboring peoples of the Russian Empireis not guaranteed by Russian manic desire to free them from the heavy burden offreedom. For example, hearing about this, especially Russian, in due time cameto Turkistan, and in 1865 was invited by Russian residents of Tashkent torelease them from their lives. However, Tashkent stubbornly resisted therelease, probably because of his masochistic tendencies, and after the captureof the city were mercifully killed, including women and children, giving themthe opportunity to voluntarily join posthumously to the Russian Empire. Anotherexample: Moscow has met and satisfied the plea Fatali Khan Derbent Khanate ofAzerbaijan to become a vassal. This glorious act of voluntary reunificationwith Russia was particularly marked after the fact that the Kremlincartographers entered Dagestan (translated from Turkish - a country ofmountains) in the Russian Federation, to which the inhabitants of the formerterritory of Azerbaijan were overly excited and still express their gratitudeto Russian, saluting volleys and explosions of houses in Buynaksk, and in somecases are so overwhelmed with joy to their souls that can not stand theemotional stress, they undermine themselves by engaging in an instantaneous movementin the surrounding paradise, of course voluntarily joined the celebration ofthe soul, similar to the voluntary will of the people to join Russia and getrid of ... Somehow, being in Soviet Lithuania, heard from a native phrase,uttered with an enthusiastic sarcasm that will be remembered forever,"Russian came and freed us from the meat and butter." So Lithuanianexpressed his personal thanks to the "big brother" for his concernabout the health of the people of Lithuania. In fact, what could be better dietfor longevity!
I must say, the people of Azerbaijan (more properlycalled the Azerbaijani Turks, as it defines itself by the people of SouthAzerbaijan, and the Turkish Turks, Iranians and Armenians), more than anyother, has received special favors Russian. For example, in a series of"voluntary" connections peoples of the Caucasus, Azerbaijan wasdivided into northern Azerbaijan in the Russian Empire and Southern Azerbaijanin Iran, where Azerbaijanis live in two times more than in the northern part.Since ancient times, probably in gratitude for the Baku oil, and perhaps forpurely altruistic motives, Moscow's concern about the Azerbaijani peoplecontinued without stopping, and apart from the territory of Dagestan (DerbentKhanate) Azerbaijani people was also released from the territory of Zangezurdistrict, which was given to Armenia , on the grounds that there due tofar-sighted national policy of Moscow, based on the principle of"friendship of peoples" (ie ethnic cleansing), significantlyincreased the number of fraternal Armenian people. Thus, the territory of theformer Nagorno-Karabakh khanate of Azerbaijan, previously inhabited byArmenians from Iran and Turkey, has received and then under Soviet rule and thestatus of an autonomous region in the years 1989-1991 after a full deportationand extermination of the Azerbaijani population in this age-old Azerbaijaniland, the home of popular poets and musicians, Moscow actually gave the entireArmenian Karabakh and the surrounding areas, which were also released from theAzerbaijani population. As a result of the Karabakh conflict, Azerbaijan haslost 20 percent of its territory.
From the beginning, the arrival of Russian in theCaucasus, Russia has pursued a policy of ethnic squeezing the Turkic peoplefrom the vicinity of Turkey and Iran, and the occupation of these lands byArmenians, encouraging migration from neighboring countries. These heinous actsagainst the people of Azerbaijan reflect the real picture matches up to a pointof strategic objectives and the Moscow Armenian Nazis who dream of GreatArmenia from sea to sea. Yes, yes it is "from sea to sea" and nototherwise, for how can one explain the massacre in 1918, arranged by theArmenians in Baku and other cities of Azerbaijan. Secretly having suppliedweapons large Armenian diaspora dashnaks produced unprecedented brutality oftreacherous revolt. For many years, lived side by side with the AzerbaijaniArmenians were suddenly burst into the house and literally cut the unarmedpopulation of the city, not sparing neither children nor women. Residents fledto organize armed resistance Outrages of the killers had no chance. In pursuitof refugees, the bandits rushed to the suburban towns.
I will allow myself a short digression. The house was alarge photograph of an old grandfather, as a small child, I noticed that theportrait in the chest has stopped up the hole. When asked about the origin ofthe pope replied briefly, "from the saber." He did not like to talkabout the war, although it went through the war from beginning to end,commanding the anti-aircraft battery. Details at a mature age, I learned frommy mother: In Balakhany survived the terrible news of the atrocities of theArmenians, the people, taking children and food on the night hurriedly left thevillage. Especially there was nowhere to run, with the neighboring villages ofBaku is located on the peninsula. Their flight was interrupted deserted shoreof the Caspian Sea. Fortunately Armenians did not occur to move to the sea. Afew days later, when the family returned to his grandfather, the house theyfound the broken dishes and punctured his sword portrait, colorful hint of whatawaited them, catching Armenian family in the house.
In Azerbaijan, the Armenians have used thesame tactics of ethnic cleansing territory under the alleged Armenian state, asin Turkey in 1915, with the only difference being that in Turkey, the action iscarried out by the imperial authorities, and Azerbaijan with the support of theCommunists. The then head of the Armenian military Andronnik telegraphed to theKremlin about the glorious victory over the enemy. But the joy was short-lived.Turkey, despite the desperate situation at the fronts, sent to rescue a militaryunit in Baku. (Turks and Armenians are one nation, by analogy with the Germansand Austrians). By breaking down on the outskirts of the city organized by theDashnak defense, the Turks entered the city, which, apparently, according tothe plans of the invaders was to enrich the Greater Armenia oil.
Dashnak hoped that Russian will help themto create a Greater Armenia, but deeply miscalculated. By organizing in placeof Yerevan Khanate (one of the khanate of Azerbaijan) Armenian SocialistRepublic, the Kremlin communists both buried all hope of Armenian Nazis toindependence, responded that many years later conducted a series ofre-fledgling Dashnak Party terrorist attacks in the form of utyatnitsu bombingsin the Moscow metro and trains.
However, the important thing is that, in my opinion,does not take into account the Dashnak ideologues who plan to construct achimeric state - this is the mentality of the Armenian people.
It is appropriate to point out the featurein the mentality of the Armenian people, namely the desire to migrate to theeconomic development of the area as a rule the city, creating pockets ofcompact residence there. For example, the eloquent fact - at the time of theconquest of Georgia in Tbilisi Russian Armenians lived more than Georgiansthemselves. In Baku, a city district called Armenikend solely with the Armenianpopulation. By the way, in the Soviet time, the number of Armenians make up thepopulation of Baku exceeded the number of Armenians living around Karabakh.Nothing else, just the difference in mentality can be explained by the factthat the Azerbaijani refugees from Armenia and the occupied territories fled toAzerbaijan, while the Armenian refugees were anywhere but not in Armenia. Thosefew who were still at home, soon left her with only one thought never toreturn. But it was after the collapse of the Soviet Union, when it seemed thatthere was little reason not to come to a free and coveted Armenia, asignificant number of them appeared in the rich U.S. state of California. Notif they went in the footsteps of the Jews so by creating the Armenian lobby inthe strongest power in the world, to solve their problems hands of Americantaxpayers, and even the lives of American soldiers for the implementation of theDashnak ideology to create a Greater Armenia. The reason for the lack oftraction for the country can be sought in the fact that today Armenia is anartificial creation of the resettled from Turkey, Iran and Lebanon's Armenians,as a consequence of implementation with the support of Moscow's ideology of theextreme nationalist Dashnak party.
It's no secret, the Armenians had great influencein the Kremlin under the Communists (Mikoyan), creating a powerful diaspora inMoscow, otherwise how can you explain that of all the Soviet republics ofArmenia only became more and more mono-and this despite the fact that theArmenian population in the most Armenia has not increased because of thecontinuous migration of Armenians in the central Russian city, and the resorttowns of the Black Sea coast and the North Caucasus. Armenia is graduallysqueezed out of not only the Azerbaijani population, but even the Russian,whose number is constantly growing in all the other Soviet republics, Armeniaat the time of the collapse of the Soviet Union almost gone. By the way, pushthe Karabakh conflict was the forced deportation of Azerbaijanis from Armenia.It was a well-planned insidious campaign. (Let me say that deceit on the partof the Armenians was repeatedly mentioned in the story). At the first stage, inAzerbaijan there were refugees from Kapan. And it's in the Soviet Union, intime of peace! Kicked out of their homes by Armenian militants, they went toBaku, intending to seek protection and justice from the official authorities,who were in complete indecision, for all inquiries responsible party comradesfrom Baku remained unanswered. Moscow kept a stubborn silence. GeneralSecretary Gorbachev took no action to stop the illegality committed by the inArmenia. What is the reason for this strange behavior of the person in whosehands are concentrated all power in the face of such a totalitarian state likethe Soviet Union? Not to recall the time of Gorbachev's visit to France, he metwith representatives of the Armenian Diaspora. One can only guess at what theywere able to tie the hands of Gorbachev. The only thing that has made acowardly republicanism rather than beat all the bells a blatant arbitrarinessof the Armenian nationalists, is to prevent the emergence of Kapan refugees inBaku. Next Sumgait they were not allowed. Time passed, and the homelessrefugees remained alone with their problems in an artificially created aninformation vacuum. For them, the government has not established even acampground. And then there were provocateurs, as it turned out, two Armenians,who took advantage of an artificially created a dangerous situation thatprompted the desperate people on the massacre of Armenians in Sumgait. Theaction was so carefully planned and, most importantly, at the same momentdocumented and surprisingly quickly, in just a few hours later film about thevandalism of Azerbaijanis, breaking the state border, that the Soviet Union isnonsense, was abroad. Note that in those days the common people did not havecameras, and the more professional cameras. It is hard to imagine that all of asudden in a timely manner and to the place appeared. But even harder to imaginethat this could happen at all in such a totalitarian state like the SovietUnion! In a state in which, not that tank, and each cartridge has beenregistered, and in fact all of a sudden it was in the hands of Armenianmilitants who began open hostilities against Azerbaijan. Planned Sumgaittragedy has given legitimacy to the expulsion of Azerbaijanis from Armenia,Karabakh and then capture. As I said, Moscow remained silent on the illegalityof the Armenian authorities, it seemed that, hidden behind the Kremlin wall,the all-powerful secretary-general is afraid to restore order in the country.No, apparently the same, there is reason for this omission, which can only beguessed at. For the first time in the Soviet Union after the war there werethousands of refugees, direct evidence that the Soviet authorities in theterritory of the Armenian Socialist Republic ceased to exist. However, when thereciprocal expulsion of Armenians from Baku, Gorbachev sent troops withoutdelay to restore Soviet power in Azerbaijan and it is against the background ofthe fact that in Soviet Armenia itself practically did not exist. Actually,counting the collapse of the Soviet empire can be taken at the beginning of theKarabakh conflict.
The Communists, in fact, continued the tsaristpolicy of resettlement of Armenians in the Muslim Turkic population ofAzerbaijan, hence the deliberately created the Karabakh problem, through whichRussia now has the opportunity to influence the political situationstrategically important Caucasus region. Russia, whose economy hastraditionally rests exclusively on the sale of energy, will by all means toobstruct, to prevent a competitor to the European market, which is theAzerbaijan. By the way, the failed Russian intervention in Georgia provided toblock the Baku-Ceyhan pipeline. Armed Russian Armenia just waiting for a visualsignal of the Kremlin to take military action to further annexation ofneighboring Azerbaijan and Georgia under the Great Armenia - program objectiveresurgent extreme nationalist Dashnak party, the party guilty of the tragedy ofArmenians in Turkey in 1915, when the Dashnak with Russian, have taken theextermination of ethnic Turks to build on vacant land Armenian state. At thetime when the Turkish Army was heavy fighting with Russian troops Armeniansraised a bloody revolt in the rear is not against the Turkish regular army andthe civilian population to cause a general panic and facilitate the promotionof Russian troops deep into Turkish territory. The atrocity committed by theDashnak spontaneously aroused mass popular resistance, and instilled inenormous casualties among the Armenians. Accuse Turkey of genocide totallyunfounded, because, unlike the Jewish in Germany, no genocide by the Turkishauthorities were not planned and carried out by the army, what happened, it wasa spontaneous popular response retribution, organized by the Armenian Dashnakextermination of the civilian population.
Over the period of the Ottoman Empire, Armenianslived happily among the Muslim population and no oppression nor national, noron religious grounds were noted. Having failed in Turkey, Dashnak have left hisventure and took a similar insidious campaign in 1918 in Azerbaijan, as havingfailed. But the most important thing is that in their insidious plans dashnaksto achieve political goals each time, playing a kind of "ArmenianGambit", if you follow chess terms, substituted for the Armenian people,as happened in Turkey in 1915, in Baku in 1918 year, and so it happened inSumgait in 1988.
Taking care of "big brother" hasaffected not only by reducing the territory of Azerbaijan, but also in culture:the people of Azerbaijan, of course, by their voluntary consent, a specialorder of Moscow, has twice been stripped of the alphabet, that is, suddenlybecame illiterate, was first introduced Latin script and then woke up and wastransferred to the Russian alphabet. By the way, failure to comply with thedecree was tantamount to anti-Soviet activities and severely punished. It is asif the Russian was obliged to use the Japanese alphabet, and after, say fiveyears, the Chinese. I wonder how would look Pushkin's poems in Chinesecharacters! Who would read Pushkin and Dostoevsky by continuous suddenilliteracy Russian population. This is exactly what happened in Azerbaijan. Inthe best case, if someone heard that there were such poets Nizami, Khagani, letalone read them, there was no real possibility. In schools, instead of thenational literature was imposed study of creativity purely Russian writers andpoets, and, of course, how can we not mention the masterpiece of Sovietliterature, "How the Steel Was Tempered". Frankly, the author of thismasterpiece works somehow forgot partially.
With independence, the Northern Azerbaijanadopted a democratic constitution, but the people's mentality and corruption donot allow us to take advantage of its benefits, is present here, and the factthat the people had no experience of democracy, which, as it were self-evidentgift suddenly fell on him. Of course, take time, and until the country developseconomically, Baku obtains the face of modern metropolis, which combine thebeauty of ancient architecture with bold architectural projects of skyscrapersand the only dangerous moment remain aggressive intentions of the ArmenianDashnak with their chimerical dream to build a "Armenia from sea to sea ."
Today, Azerbaijan is a place where crossed thestrategic and economic interests of Russia and Putin's Tehran obscurantist,which are, first, to prevent the world market of energy resources from the CaspianBasin, and secondly, the union of North and South Azerbaijan, and a smolderingKarabakh conflict is a good primer for the start of military action that hasthe potential to develop into a large-scale regional war, and even, God forbid,and in the Third World.
