assalamau 'alaykum brother A Daleel Regarding the 2 million figure from Nogorno Karabakh and the surrounding region of Azerbayjan, i consulted Azerbayjani government statistics, which I believe as UN verified covering approximately 17 to 20 % of Azeri territory. I don't know of any web links. As for the region of Yerevan, I am including those Azeris who descend from the people who were displaced from that area when Yerevan became Armenia and the holocaust of the Turks started. As you might know, if you are a Turk, Azeris to the west of Yerevan province still live in the Turkish provinces of Edgir, Karas etc. Azeris live on both sides of Yerevan, but not in the middle, that is, in Yerevan itself. Actually, they did live there, but were expelled when Armenia was created. Though they most likely were a minority there though a sizeable one. Regarding the Ossetian onslaught on the Muslims of the Northern Caucausus, such as the Chechens, Ingush etc, I consulted Russian history, Tsar accounts, of how they wanted to establish a Christian state within the Muslim lands and so used the Ossetians as a tool. The ethnic cleansing was continuing well into the last century. How many Chechens, Ingush, and other Muslims were displaced is most likely far more than 1 million. Not all Ossetians are Christians though. One good place to begin with respect to current and historical context is www.caucaz.com
wa 'alaykum as salam A Daleel, I will reply back to you tomorrow, as I have an exam to prepare for today
Armenia has directly been involved in the ethinc-religious cleansing of 2 million Muslims from Yerevan and Nagorno-Karabakh, and other parts of Azerbayjan. Ossetians have been involved in the ethnic-religious cleansing of 1 million Muslims from the northern Caucasus area. Interesting statements you make brother wadood do you have the links to prove these statements? i would be very interested as i will soon be starting to write a book regarding the decline of the ottoman sultinate (khilafah) and this would be very valuable to me thank you
Russia is now retaliating for its historical friend Ossetia. Religion goes out of the window in politics.
Iran considers Ossetia as a part of Iran preserved in the Caucasus. Even though the Ossetians are orthodox christians, Russian agents in fighting everything to do with Islam in that region. Now, they are also fighting the Georgians who are also orthodox christians again with the help of the Russians. Lets look at the Iranian contradictions: Iran supports Ossetians. Ossetians are very anti-islamic Iran supports Armenia. Armenians are very anti-islamic. Armenia has directly been involved in the ethinc-religious cleansing of 2 million Muslims from Yerevan and Nagorno-Karabakh, and other parts of Azerbayjan. Ossetians have been involved in the ethnic-religious cleansing of 1 million Muslims from the northern Caucasus area. So, why does Iran support Ossetia so strongly?
