in case you are wondering about us policy towards this is https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caspian_Guard_Initiative https://www.heritage.org/global-politics/report/azerbaijan-and-armenia-regional-conflict-global-implications quote:In recent days, evidence has surfaced on social media of Russia transporting hardware through Iran and into southern Armenia. Interestingly, there have also been reports of ethnic Azeri’s living in northern Iran attacking these convoys. quote:Simply put, Iran is not in a position to act in opposition to its own Azeri minority. Unlike in the early 1990s, when the collapse of the Soviet Union was just opening room for Iranian Azeris to reconnect with their brethren to the north, who had been under Russian/Soviet rule since the early 1800s, the ethnic Iranian Azeri community is today far more aware of the dynamics behind the Armenia-Azerbaijan conflict and far more passionately behind Baku. This poses a serious concern for Tehran. Iran is, after all, a multiethnic country, and Tehran is ill prepared to handle an uprising among other aggrieved minorities sparked by the Armenia-Azerbaijan conflict.

Every 10 years or so the State Department thinks they can use some sort of Azeri separatism or uprising to destroy the Islamic Republic because they're incapable of thinking of any kind of nationalism that isn't 100% ethno-linguistic in nature. Most you'll get is some riots in Tabriz but I doubt it would even get that far unless Iran actually started shooting missiles at Baku or something.

Pryor on Fire posted:Nobody seems able to advance more than a few hundred feet without exploding. It looks like an entrenched stalemate where everyone is just digging in deeper and coming up with new ways to hide assets. Always has been that way since WW1. Bonus points if artillery blows you up while you're on the road and you don't see any badguys. Sheng-Ji Yang posted:drones turning actual modern warfare between states into a ww1 trench warfare hell but worse On Armenia's side, it's actually the landmines they've been laying down because Azerbaijan apparently did the pro-move of buying hundreds of tanks but barely any engineering vehicles lol.

i say swears online posted:absolutely bracing myself for a terrible interview If you’re referring to the Radio War Nerd interview it was great. She’s Armenian so her perspective is obvious. And Dolan and Ames always make it very clear where their sympathies lie. Way better than pretending to be impartial. Listening to someone actually living in a war zone was very interesting/depressing. Personally, I would outlaw war. Seems bad.

That looks like the Armenians are basically getting massacred, but I guess that's the point of a propaganda murder montage e: still they should probably stop gathering in huge groups e: I hope they have the sense to call it quits while there's still someone alive in the male 2000 and 2001 age cohorts aphid_licker has issued a correction as of 16:20 on Oct 17, 2020 |

Zedhe Khoja posted:luv to massacre cowering people in a ditch and post it to twitter.com if it's just a one-off, one plausible scenario is that Azerbaijan has air defenses as well, and a damaged ballistic missile still has to fall someplace. the Ganja airport/base is on the far side of the city relative to NK, so if some form of air defense damaged a missile's guidance or propulsion, the warhead could crash down short of the intended target and hit within the town. this is obviously not something the AZ or anyone else in that situation would ever admit to. american missile defense systems are advertised as shooting 2 interceptor missiles at an incoming ballistic missile to prevent this situation (but its actually just to sell twice as many missiles and also because they never really hit anything)
