Following the siege of ethnically Armenian Artsakh, a.k.a. Nagorno-Karabakh, by Azerbaijani forces, over half of the Armenian population of Nagorno-Karabakh has already fled to Armenia, with more on the way. In response, Azerbaijan made a global show and urged Armenians to stay and “benefit from planned rebuilding and infrastructure projects.” Elin Suleymanov, Azerbaijan’s ambassador to Britain, also stated that Azerbaijan “had not yet had a chance to prove what he said was its genuine commitment to provide secure and better living conditions for those ethnic Armenians who choose to stay.”
Armenia is 98% Christian, while Azerbaijan is approximately 97% Muslim. Armenians have learned from their persecution historically. Islam has a long tradition of taqiyya, and Armenians have a deep, justifiable distrust of Azerbaijani authorities; they fear persecution, ethnic cleansing, and even genocide.
Following Azerbaijan’s meteoric offensive and occupation of Nagorno-Karabakh on September 19, Armenian Artsakh “separatist authorities announced that the ethnic Armenian enclave would dissolve on January 1, 2024.”
After the incursion, Azerbaijan arrested Ruben Vardanyan, former head of Nagorno-Karabakh’s government, as he tried to cross over the border into Armenia, along with tens of thousands of other refugees. Vardanyan was taken to Azerbaijan’s capital Baku, and now faces an unknown future.
Armenians have a bitter history with Islam. In 1915, over two million Armenians were murdered via mass executions and deliberate starvation by the Turks, which Turkey still denies to this day. Hundreds of thousands became “homeless and stateless refugees. By 1923 virtually the entire Armenian population of Anatolian Turkey had disappeared.”
Turkey supports Azerbaijan, and although it denies having any role in the latest Nagorno-Karabakh offensive, Turkey provided military training to Azerbaijan. It is also noteworthy that arms sales from Turkey to Azerbaijan surged before Nagorno-Karabakh fighting broke out in 2020.
Also, on September 27, at least 125 were killed in a bomb blast, according to Armenia’s health minister, Anahit Avanesyan. The victims were fleeing to Armenia, and their bodies have been transported there.
Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan stated that “what was happening was the ethnic cleansing of Nagorno-Karabakh’s Armenian population.”
Since the hope of a home in Nagorno-Karabakh is now gone, Armenians are wise to flee persecution, despite the lie from Azerbaijan that Armenians will gain by staying put.
Already, about 70,500 out of an estimated population of 120,000 Armenians have already crossed from Artsakh into Armenia.
The Nagorno-Karabakh offensive, supported by Turkey, is another win for Islamic expansion, and even with the end of the Nagorno-Karabakh government, there is still no guarantee that Azerbaijan won’t continue its encroachment upon Armenia. Fear is already circulating that Azerbaijan will attempt to conquer even more land.

Thanks for this perspective.

Islamic genocide of non-muslims has been ongoing for 1,400 years. The recent invasion of 3,000 year old Armenian land by blood thirsty Turks is just a small part of it.
Armenians might be wise to know the fact that anything the muslims say is just a lie and justification for their crimes. But unfortunately the rest of the world is still deeply asleep when it comes to islamic invasions and their well planned future genocides. Even though the invaders are already burning down Europe and destroying freedoms everywhere.
By the time people wake up, it’ll be too late.

All true, well said, and in context … that said, …
Christine left out a lot of ‘hot’ button issues. None of these change the point that Muslims have/can/will kill Christians when given the chance, and they are doing so now.
I understand FPM has been shadow banned to the point of effective non-existence, but a series of articles on this democide would be very instructive to everyone Left, Right, and Middle-wing Nuts.
Both Armenia and Azerbaijan are under the influence of foreign powers. And it’s not as simple as Pootler Evil / Homo Globalist Good.
Both sides have pro-Globalist (the anti-Western ‘West’) AND Soviet Communist ties to Russia in addition to their Muslim/Christian division.
Effectively this means that Azerbaijan, in particular, could not and would not be pushing this now, but for “The Green Light” from the Globalist faction of Western leaders. I’m busy AND somehow I know quite a bit about the dictator of Azerbaijan, their financial problems, corrupt deals for arms and ‘foreign aid’ – AND that’s BEFORE Pootler recklessly decided to take on the Globalist’s favorite Nazi terrorists in Russian occupied areas of eastern Ukraine.
In reverse, Armenia has pissed off Russia – the only power that would come to their aid – because some factions of their ‘deep state’ sided with Ukraine. … Because – surprise, surprise, surprise – lots of folks are anti-Russian due to communist atrocities of the past.
So who will defend Armenia against a power using our weapons and our tax dollars to fuel their Jihad? And if Pootler wanted any assistance from the pro-West West, he lost it with his SMO against the Nazis. … So … we who are called Nazis because we are anti-Nazi … must be pro-Nazi to even remain in the debate.
To anyone paying attention to the details … you can see where I am going!

Part 2: If you are anti-democide – that is, against the ethnic cleansing of Nagorno-Karabakh and the murder of innocent Christians …
… you are a Russian bot defending Pootler’s slaughter of women and children according to the war mongers on all three sides …
… even if the women and children and old farts slaughtered by Azerbaijan’s Muslims ALSO HATE Russia because of the communist crimes of the past.
The needs of the victims do not matter to those supporting the anti-Western narrative.
And it is outrageous that anyone who is pro-West and pro-victims suddenly becomes a ‘far-right’ or a ‘conspiracy theorist’ or a ‘Russian bot.’ …
This is where we are folks.
It’s a dumpster fire. … Apologies to dumpster fires.

Any Armenian or non muslim that gives muslims the chance to “prove their genuine commitment to provide secure and better living conditions for those ethnic Armenians who choose to stay.”
will be treated no differently than the Jews unloaded off of cattle cars during WW2 and told to take those “hygienic showers”.
