Origins of Azeris

The whole thread looks misinformed to me. Events that happened thousands of years ago are being turned around to suit political agendas of those that can think no further than their own backyard. If their backyard had an apple tree in it then they will spend the rest of their life trying to prove that the whole area grows apples when lemons, plums and peaches grow all around. The truth will always be out of reach of those who don't want to see any differences or similarities. But, what a boring world if we were all the same, we would be no more than ants in the dirt!

And most of Azerbaijani People in Azerbaijan Republic, dont feel self as turk.

We are not T.U.R.K.

In Iranian Azerbaijan u can find many because most of them is not Azeri but Turkmens.

We are close to Georgians, then any other else.

We are most close to Georgians, Dagestanis, Armenians and North Iranian tribes.

I dont see any common thing beetween turks and Us.

so azeris think that they are more close to armenians than Turks?

yeah after all, south of it is iran and there are no azeris in iran..

Ye many of them are, beleive or not.

Azeri Population in Iran is not about 24% is less, and most of them ar Turkmens.

Beleive it or not, thats a true.

And like i said, give me an fact that shows Azeris is Turkic.

I m waiting.

Pan-Turks is very funny.

Emil, be sure I am the last one who care for pan Turks.(Personaly, I prefer arabs, bulgarians or bosnak friendship because Turkey is at middle east and balkan not central asia.)

pardon me but, isnt It enough for you that million of people call Azerbaijani as Turkic country .(Of course not, You just showed you dont care what people think even about themself.)

persuade your people not me.. dont forget also your people who live at iran and turkey..(of course, If all of them are not turkmen.)

Here's the problem.  A "Turk" is no longer viewed as someone of a particular physical appearance.  He can be anyone from a very Mongolian-looking Bashkir, to a blonde-haired man from Istanbul.  The more west Turks have migrated, the more "western" or "European" they look.  You can show us as many pictures as you can, but from our point-of-view, the idea of "Turk" has no physical meaning.  So, when you ask us "if these people look Turkic" the question means nothing to us, since "Turkic" has no "look" (at least today) but the term is better suited as a linguistic classification (and even here, the linguistic classification poses some problems).  Again, it is no longer a physical category. 

Firstly is not just about looking.

Secondly i can easy see that Turks Of Turkey many of them have asiatic featrues, but European too of course.

And even name of Azerbaijan is not Turkic.

I just say that we are native of South-Caucasus.

Cause our Featrues shows that.

And our Culture is 100% Caucasus culture with some Iranian mixtures.

There is nothing in our culture that is turkic. Nothing !.

But u Pan-Turks can u guys give me some fact that we are Turk?

I m waiting.
