[edit] 366 regiment

The sinister role of 366 regiment was more than just provision of weapons to the Armenian militants. Some soldiers and officers of that regiment took a direct part in the attack on the town, in particular almost the entire staff of the batallion under the command of major Oganian (who is currently a minister of defense for Karabakh separatists) participated in the attack. All the tank crews were soldiers of this regiment. So I rolled back the latest edit by Pereleshin. Grandmaster (talk) 09:42, 8 May 2008 (UTC)

Pls do not remove sourced and relevant info just because we wrote about it anywhere else. Its an obvious biased editwarring with no relations with Wiki rules. Andranikpasha (talk) 17:52, 13 May 2008 (UTC)

And you just deleted all the references and links from the article. Do you actually check what you revert? Grandmaster (talk) 17:56, 13 May 2008 (UTC)

The info repeatedly added by anon is misinterpretation of the sources. The journalist denies that he ever said the words that were attributed to him, all the sources make it clear. So please stop POV push. Grandmaster (talk) 04:43, 14 May 2008 (UTC)

I reverted 2 POV cat's added by an IP. Andranikpasha (talk) 18:27, 26 May 2008 (UTC)

Andranik, please, discuss your changes in future. Khojaly Massacre is an act of massacre committed against civilian population by Armenian forces, driven by the ethnic hatred. So it was an act of anti-Azerbaijanism or anti-Turkism. Atabek (talk) 21:08, 28 May 2008 (UTC)

What source have you presented to back up that allegation? Nowhere in the article does it say that the so called massacre was driven by anti whatever "hatred".-- Ευπάτωρ ^Talk!! 21:37, 28 May 2008 (UTC)

Eupator, it would be helpful if you first actually read the article before reverting and note this section:

• "According to Markar Melkonian, the brother of the Armenian military leader Monte Melkonian, "Khojaly had been a strategic goal, but it had also been an act of revenge." The date of the massacre in Khojaly had a special significance: it was the run-up to the fourth anniversary of the anti-Armenian pogrom in the city of Sumgait"

I am not sure what you're trying to achieve by removing anti-Turkism link, but the fact is that Armenian-Azeri conflict is of ethnic nature, has been such ever since its beginning. It's not something new. Atabek (talk) 22:20, 28 May 2008 (UTC)
