ON AZERI LEADER'S "FLAG DREAMS"

Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliev is still cherishing dreams of
hoisting an Azeri flag over Nagorno-Karabakh. As the parliamentary
elections scheduled for November 7 draw near, Azerbaijan's
authoritarian leader has more frequent "flag fits."
This time, during Iftar (the meal eaten by Muslims to break their fast
after sunset every day during Ramadan) held by the Aliev clan's best
fiend, leader of the Caucasian Muslims Allahshukyur Pashazade, Mr.
Aliev had "another vision" of the Azeri flag over Nagorno-Karabakh.
The State News Agency of Azerbaijan reports that, speaking of
the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict, "President Ilham Aliev expressed
the confidence that the problem would be fairly resolved within
international legal norms and the country's territorial integrity."
According to the Azeri leader, the hoisting of the Azerbaijani flag
over Nagorno-Karabakh is an integral part of "the fair solution."
However, the Azeri leaders are far from being a success in this
matter. Of course, they are "modestly" silent on the fact. But the
fact remains: the hyped-up and well-paid action widely covered by world
mass media - the hoisting of the largest Azerbaijani flag to a record
height - proved an ignominious failure. Every day Baku residents can
see there is no flag fluttering on the highest point of Azerbaijan's
capital, but the Aztv TV channel goes on, with pathological idiocy,
reporting that "Azerbaijanis throughout the world were greatly proud
to see it hoisted in National Flag Square."
Mother Nature, however, revolted against that pomposity. The gusty
Caspian wind tore a hole in the huge flag, "a symbol of might and
unity" of Azerbaijan, which was lowered on September 3 morning. So Mr.
Aliev had better think of finding a way out of this awkward situation
rather than cherish dreams never to come true. He had better raise a
flag over his own country's capital instead of threatening with war
and new ethnic cleansing to Nagorno-Karabakh.
As regards the flag to wave over Stepanakert, it was decided there
long ago.
