Interesting article, however I couldn't find primary Turkish sources that detailed the reasoning behind the deportations. Did the Turks institute the policy to remove Armenians from within Turkey or to exterminate them?
- diminish 5y agoSadly Armenian terrorist organization Tashnak has killed millions of Turks in France/Russia imperial army uniforms before their migration and Armenian terrorist organization ASALA recently killed a dozen diplomats in western cities and Armenian state and militia has killed 100s of thousands in Azerbaijan literally occupying the country. The whole genocide agenda is somewhat to hide that sad truth. Recent killings are easy to document. Unfortunately most editors are heavily manipulated by the fanatical Armenian diaspora. Search for "Khojaly massacre", "Asala killings of Turkish consulates" and civilian airport bombings in Paris and Ankara by the Armenian terrorist organization. Backwards read how Russian imperial and French armies armed Tasknak to kill Turks. Edit: My grand-grandma sadly was burned in an owen in a village by Armenian forces in in 1910s. Someone should also understand there are 2 sides of any story. I'm sad for any casualty in 1st WW. But please allow to also feel for Turkish losses.
- Rebelgecko 5y agoDo you have any sources you can share? I found the wiki page for ARF (I think the same thing as Tashnak) and I don't see anything about killing millions of Turks. To be honest I'm a bit skeptical

- luckylion 5y agoWell, let's see whether this genocide denying nonsense is allowed to stay up. I have a feeling that somebody denying the holocaust in such a shamefully obvious way would be booted off the site. I hope that dang is dealing with this the same way.

- sorokod 5y agoWikipedia is quite thorough: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Armenian_Genocide https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Armenian_Genocide
- belatw 5y agoTurks had nothing to do with this. It was Ottoman monsters.
- m00dy 5y agoYou can imagine like US is sort of in trouble and people in North Dakota wanted to have an independent state and these people were sent somewhere else to live afterwards. Genocide is over exaggerated word for this. People keep talking about 2 million people missing. Ottomans had not have any technology to exterminate these people. I mean technologies like gas chamber for mass killing. Ottomans were so poor and were not even able to manufacture their own weapons. I would like to ask these questions How these people got killed ? And where are they ? Accusing Turks of doing this is another issue. Because Kurds have much more population on claimed regions. I mean the Kurds that are now ally with US :)
- 74d-fe6-2c6 5y ago> I couldn't find primary Turkish sources The Turkish government doesn't acknowledge the Armenian Genocide. And because it's punishable to do so there might be no "Turkish" sources at all. I use quotes because obviously there are Turkish people who don't deny it happened and some of them might have written about it.
- kingofpandora 5y agoYou don't need to use scare quotes (in fact, you seem to be using them incorrectly). In any case, there are several Turkish scholars who acknowledge the Armenian genocide and have written about it.
- stjohnswarts 5y agoUsually with something like that which would be an "open secret" in Turkey people would usually mean the 99% who don't acknowledge it rather than the 1% who do acknowledge it.
