As someone who lives in a large American city, I would prefer it if Russia did not invade a NATO ally.

Btw what's with everyone saying Azeris now?  In the 90s it was all Azerbaijanis.

It's always been Azeris, as far as I know.  Kinda like Tajiks rather than Tajikistanis.

I think this is much, much worse though.  I'm fucking done with these despicable people and their worthless culture.

Okay, I got a question.  How come you never learned Armenian.  You learned Turkish, but not Armenian You always seem to champion Armenia on this board.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Maybe Azeris are perceiving that there is more will for Turkey to get involved than there is a will for Putin to get involved, and is striking while the iron is hot. 
I hope he's wrong.  I will forgive Putin everything if he gets involved and makes Greater Armenia and an independent Kurdistan a reality.
:hmm: What an appropriate title you have there.

Azeri is (I believe) the ethnonym, while Azerbaijani refers to citizenship. So there are plenty of Azeris in Iran, but the only Azerbaijanis are tourists.

It's a much more important language until the Republic finally collapses like the rotting, hateful edifice it is and Armenia is restored to its natural boundaries.

Turkey broke me heart. When I was 14 I hated Turkey because I liked Armenia and Greece. Now I hate Turkey independently and still love Greece and Armenia.

Right.  I just have memories of hearing "Azerbaijanis" over and over on CNN during the 90s and now the press is holding themselves to saying "Azeris".

The big news companies are always trying to sound more worldly and filled with Gravitas so they like to do those kinds of try-hard things all the time. Like how the 'Turin' Olympics was suddenly 'Torino' back in 2006. Oh so sophisticated and Italian you are big news.

I think the main difference between you and Lettow is that your were born like 400 miles apart.

Azerbaidjan isn't in NATO.
Turkey is.

And Turkey would be acting on it's own, outside NATO context, to do it's evil deads.
(There's unlikely to be people willing to spill european blood for Turkey after what Erdogan pulled the last few years. He burnt some bridges, though he might not realise it yet. Assuming he cares)
