URGENT: Azerbaijan began shelling the positions of Armenians of rocket launchers

Enemy carries heavy losses.

The Azerbaijani army is shooting at Armenian fighting positions of small arms and artillery: grenade launchers, mortars, anti-aircraft installations, thermobaric grenades.

As the Oxu.Az citing Haqqin.Az, stated in an emergency statement from the Ministry of Defense.

According to the enemy suffers great losses.

According to the statement, in recent days the situation on the contact line of Nagorno Karabakh and Azerbaijan escalated dramatically. Azerbaijani armed forces do not stop trying to penetrate the Armenian positions.

Also frequent shelling of border settlements. Day by day the number of losses of the parties.

Ministry of Defence of the Republic of Armenia calls on Azerbaijan to stabilize the situation.

As can be seen from the statement of the Ministry of Defense of Armenia, the Armenian side is experiencing extreme concern about the situation. And yesterday the information disseminated by a number of Armenian bloggers on a large number of casualties among the soldiers of the Armenian occupation army confirmed by today's announcement of the Armenian military.

2- Azerbaijan fears Putin's regional ambition. There is concern that Putin's attention will shift southward after Crimea.

This Caspian Sea nation is the ONLY westward route for central Asian oil and gas that bypasses Russia.

Russian troops are already stationed in neighboring Georgia and Armenia. REMEMBER: Putin RECENT STATEMENT: "Russia will “never leave” the region."

The ‘Brix’ nations will not be allowed to leave the international bankers’ control without heavy bloodshed and major demographic pressures applied.

PERHAPS, but Azerbaijan
“Azerbaijan, the third-largest ex-Soviet oil producer, has spent the past two decades trying to establish itself as an alternative gas source to Europe. Home to the Shah Deniz field, the country struck a $45 billion deal in December with a BP Plc-led group.

“If the West doesn’t do anything to stop Russia, they will be emboldened to take back Azerbaijan by force as they did a hundred years ago,” said Zahir Rahimov, a 39-year-old resident of Baku, referring to the Bolshevik takeover.

Officials already complain about feeling the Kremlin’s pressure. The push from Moscow to join Putin’s new customs union, a project he wants to rival the European Union, is similar to the squeeze put on Ukraine, according to Siyavus Novruzov, a senior member of the ruling New Azerbaijan Party.”

Doesn't matter. The frenzy feeders are telling us about the poor Muzzie Ta Taas and that hasn't gained any traction so now it's the Armenians being targeted with "Putin", "Russia", and "like a hundred years ago", being whispered as the possible real cause.

Whatever it takes to keep the pot boiling and as many people as possible focused anywhere except on Iz Lame while Iz Lame scum slaughter and behead their way throughout Syria, Libya, Iraq, Nigeria, and bombard Israel, openly vowing to destroy Israel and kill all the Jews.

If anyone needs to worry about, "like a hundred years ago" it's the Armenians who the Turks murdered a million or so of "a hundred years ago" because, they said, the Armenian Christians might aid and side with the evil Christian Russians.

Funny how some of these little tidbits get subtly spun to fit exactly the Muzzie view of history and no one notices. Well, probably because "everyone knows" no Muzzie would ever do that sort of thing now and it's just a coincidence that Armenian heads piled outside a university a hundred years ago look like the photos jihadists in Syria and Iraq are posting these days.

Oh, and ignore the Azerbaijan guys helping jihad in Syria and Iraq just like you ignore those nice Ta Ta boyz doing the same.

More unsettled business from the breakup of the Soviet Union.

Bullets have been flying back and forth every couple of years in this region since the end of the Nagorno-Karabakh War in 1994.

Putin recently visited both countries trying to improve relations, but historically, Russia has tended to lean toward the Armenians.

We’d expect that from you. You’re parochial and unsophisticated. You make that clear on a reoccurring basis. You think people in the next county are foreigners. We get it. You’re a rube.

What we need to keep in mind is that Putin’s empire building is intended to recapture all of the people who formerly were held as slaves under communism. He’s not making exceptions. All were victims of communism will be future victims of Putinism. Putinism is a artificial form of communism with a veneer of phony conservatism. It fools fools and dupes dopes. It’s for the unthinking man’s conservative. We should all be ashamed that some of these know nothings post on FReeREpublic.
