What If, After Kosovo, Nagorno-Karabakh?

What are the Armenians trying to escape in Nagorno-Karabakh? There are several thriving Armenian churches in Tehran. There is none in Ankara or Istanbul.

Azeris are Shi'ites. So they are unlikely satellites of the emerging Turkish Super-Caliphate, which presumes even to re-write the Hadith, a move which a comment on an earlier post informs me has been welcomed by the website that is now the principal continuation of the unyielding pro-Soviet Straight Left faction.

But if the agenda are Turkic rather than (or even just more than) Islamic, then Armenians have obvious cause for alarm, especially since Turkey still denies ever having committed genocide against them.

So, which is it?
