James Blunt’s Facebook post triggers conflict between Armenian, Azeri fans

PanARMENIAN.Net - A Facebook post of famous singer James Blunt triggered yet another online conflict between Armenians and Azerbaijanis. ““I'll Be Your Man” is Number 1 in Armenia....!!! Re-diverting the tour…,” the singer said in his post, which caused the outrage of Azeri fans, who hurried to reply with abusive and threatening Armenia-related comments.

Armenian fans, as opposed to Azeris, refrained from responding in similar manner so as not to inflame the conflict.
