Mubariz Ahmadoglu: Tehran is engaged in Armenizing ancient Azerbaijani lands

The trilateral relations of Armenia, Vatican and Iran seem to be very warm. The meeting of Iranian president Ahmadinejad with Pope Benedict XVI is not just a deal. Iran has many politicians and even religious figures which denied the commandment of the Holy Quran (We see here some kind of progress as we condemn conflicts between Islam and Christianity). Though, for the current Iranian government, this doesn’t create any handicap to spoil common spiritual values of both Islam and Christianity.

Representing Armenian neighboring countries as Christian territories was almost becoming a doctrine in Vatican-Armenian relations. Armenians, who belong to Gregorian doctrine, can become biased towards both Catholic and Orthodox Christians in accordance with their goals. They think now it's time for Catholics, so they try to get closer to the Catholic Christians and trying to represent themselves as their friends.

Thus, they are now engaged in representing non-Muslim monuments located in the territories of the four neighboring countries as Armenian belongings with Catholic-Christian origin. To prove this falsehood, they have launched several projects in Armenia-Vatican-Iran triangle. They spend large amount of funds to those projects in the territories of the neighboring countries while no Armenian neither Apostle Church nor the Armenian government does not make any efforts to preserve 700-800 year old monuments in its own territory. Vatican and Iran are also amongst those who fund these projects.

We don't know the exact amount of money allocated by the official Tehran to support these projects but the Iranian ambassador to Armenia has already informed about these allocations. These archeological projects have been already launched.

Armenian experts, conducting archeological researches in the Iranian territory, represented these territories as "Armenian lands". Karapetian called Iran's Garadagh province as "Parsapatunik", Makun as "Artas", Khoy as "Ger" and Salmas as "Zareavan". 

During the one-month exploration, these Armenian experts aimed to prove that the monuments located in that territories belonged to Christian-Armenian origin. In their opinion, there are 4000-45000 Christian monuments. The goal of Karapetian, who called the territory stretching from Maku to Salmas as "ancient Armenian-Van Kingdom" is definitely clear. We have already talked about it several times.

Armenians have bought several top officials in Iran to make the Southern Azerbaijan territory and Armenian land official. Their biggest backer in this job is Vatican. If to consider the recent visit of the Pontifical Commission of Sacred Archeology head to Armenia, we can see an obvious link in these issues. One of the managers of these projects is Sherli Avetian, head of Tehran Museum. Meanwhile, Karapetyan expressed his satisfaction with the current state of Armenian monuments in Iranian territory. His mission these will last for several more years.

Let's summarize what's going on in Armenia-Vatican-Iran triangle: Armenians' active work to Christianize the Azerbaijani territories in Iran in front of the eyes of the Supreme Religious Leader and the support of Iran in this job is clearly visible. It can be inferred that by Armenizing the Azerbaijani lands, the Iran's religious and administrative government tries to get rid of Armenia and Vatican, since Iran has become a slave of the Armenian government due to anti-Azerbaijani passion and Armenia duly uses this passion for its ambitions.

Supposedly, the official Tehran has already accepted the opinion about Iran's weakening and destruction. The fact that the US left Iraq and Afghanistan generates a very risky condition for Iran and increases the chance of war. Some groups of people in Tehran are trying to officially Armenize the lands beforehand thus preventing Azerbaijan to get any share after the destruction.

Armenians will reach this goal with the help of Vatican but this will not erase the risk of war in Iran. The war is inevitable. Everything that happens in Arab-Muslim world is connected with Iran. Armenians will further precipitate the war against Iran. Let the Iranian officials remember the role of Armenians in Iraq in triggering the US's war against this country. The anti-Azerbaijani ambition of the official Tehran has power to destroy the whole Iranian country.
