An embarrassing excuse for a so-called "conservative" continues her bleeding heart support for Azerbaijan
For 30 years, the OSCE Minsk Group, headed by Russia, France, and the United States, failed to find a peaceful resolution to the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict, which resulted in Armenia refusing to vacate territories that rightfully belonged to Azerbaijan under international law, as demanded by four UN Security Council Resolutions.No matter how dreadful OSCE can be, it's no excuse for her unverified smear tactics, which continue to be jaw droppingly disgusting, and as a right-winger, I'm absolutely horrified by how she's behaving, not to mention how she obscures important history of how Nagorno Karabakh was formed: The Indian Express had a report last year on the specific history of how the Nagorno Karabakh area was formed in the early 1920s, by none other than Stalin, when the USSR was in control of the region:
For the Azerbaijani people, this was a great travesty of justice, which led to one million people remaining IDPs, living in squalid refugee camps.
To add insult to injury, OSCE Minsk Group heads such France did everything in their power to demonstrate that they were biased in favor of the Armenians and did not want to stand up for Azerbaijani human rights, as the French Parliament's recognition of Artsakh so well demonstrates, which completely undid whatever semblance that France could possibly have as being an impartial mediator. Such actions did everything to undermine the success of the OSCE Minsk Group mandate.
When the Transcaucasus regions joined the USSR, the borders between these three countries were not determined. The early 1920s saw a fervent political struggle for Karabakh between Armenia and Azerbaijan in the Soviet Union. It took the USSR three years to settle the issue. Initially, in December 2, 1920, Joseph Stalin, as people’s commissar of nationalities, made the decision to include Karabakh in Armenia and it was agreed upon by Azerbaijan as well. However, later they refused and Stalin, under Turkish influence, redrew the border plan.I guess Avraham has no serious issues with a Soviet autocrat who was but one of those communists responsible for the deaths of millions of dissidents, and didn't make it any better with his kowtowing to Turkey, eh? The Armenian Weekly and Armenian National Committee for America also spoke about the Soviet role in how Nagorno Karabakh was formed, and almost 95 percent of the inhabitants there at the time were Armenian. In some ways, it precedes the British division of Israel for the sake of Islamic countries around it. Say, and how come Avraham's never commented on a scandal in Azerbaijan 4 years ago, where some military officials were executed on suspicion of being spies for Armenia? Is that kind of behavior acceptable? Oh, and lest we forget, how is living as a refugee that much worse than being murdered, as 1.5 million Armenians were during WW1?
“On March 16, 1921, a treaty between republican Turkey and the Soviet Union determined that both the regions were to be under the authority of the Azerbaijani Soviet Socialist Republic,” writes policy and security expert Svante E Cornell in his research paper, ‘Undeclared war: The Nagorno-Karabakh conflict reconsidered’.
Now to Azerbaijan's credit, they may have taken steps against pro-Iranian agents following the incident in Cyprus recently. And no, it wouldn't be good at all if Iran attacked Azerbaijan. But that still doesn't excuse the adherence to Islam they themselves still go by, nor any of the taqqiya Azerbaijan's employed, and Avraham continues to disgrace the image of news reporting by taking such a bizarre and lenient approach to them, not all that different from countless other leftist news sources who've done the same. How much longer is she going to keep up this kowtowing, to say nothing of denying certain histories? All that does is make the situation worse.
