But after a year of reading her blog, after a year of enjoying her blog and after a year of opening my mind about that apparently far, far away region, I can say I've got to know the whole subject a little more. ¡Saludos desde el Perú!

I can relate very much because I also am not directly linked with the issues and conflicts that have followed these two amazing cultures. As you say however, "We all suffered from being at war." Yes we did - no matter how far or close we were. I don't know about you, but "sometime in my lifetime" sounds like the best thing I could ever ask for. Thank you for your eloquent essay.

I know there will be people on both sides who would hate this, but I also know there will be some who would agree. You and me are the proof of that.

I takes guts to go against the nationalist consensus on both sides of the conflict, even if you are far from the conflict zone, so this is very much appreciated. I now hope that a) this will be translated and posted in the Azeri language and b) that an Armenian contribution arguing the same is forthcoming. Scary - thanks for this.

In fact, I've written some stuff on the same issue here. Indeed, as you point out, it increasingly becomes obvious how similar are many of the issues facing societies in both countries. http://frontlineclub.com/blogs/onnikkrikorian/2009/03/burying-the-red-apple.html Anyway, thanks again for the post and also, for anyone interested, I interviewed Scary over Skype a year ago for Global Voices Online: http://globalvoicesonline.org/2009/07/10/azerbaijan-an-interview-with-scary-azeri/ Scary, thanks a bunch for the post and btw: no, didn’t link to your post to make fun of Azerbaijan.
