If I remember correctly, Persians can be hostile to Azeris because of their mixed identity as both Turkic and Iranian peoples.

Just another attempt to distract Iranians from the government’s oppression.

This is a dispute over who has the largest "sailboat" shaped noses in the world, right?

The Iranians are definitely in the lead.

well: 1. the Turks conquered and slaughtered many Irani peoples in the middle ages -- memories are long

2. the Azeris are by blood nearly purely Irani, but they speak a Turkic language
