What is it with Iran screwing around in Azerbaijan lately? They sent this Hezbollah cell to attack the Israeli embassy, they recalled their envoy to Azerbaijan after the Azeri president talked with Peres, and Iran has in the past been accused of meddling in Azerbaijani affairs.
Azerbaijan borders the energy-rich Caspian Sea, which Russia and Iran want to get their (and only their) hands on. Azerbaijan is a Sunni state, and we’re back again to the Sunni-Shi’a war...
Khamenei and Musavi are ethnic Azeris and not Persians. Ah, the irony...or should I say Irany....
Azerbaijan is Shi3a.
& they don’t care. Their closest ally & brother nation is Turkey, so they have no problem with Sunni. & Azeris are secular anyway.
They are good people & I hope they never get reunited with Iranian Azerbaijan because they will get poisoned.
