> Ismail Enver Pasha (Ottoman Turkish: اسماعیل انور پاشا‎; Turkish: İsmail Enver Paşa; 22 November 1881 – 4 August 1922) was an Ottoman military officer who formed one-third of the dictatorial triumvirate known as the "Three Pashas" (along with Talaat Pasha and Cemal Pasha) in the Ottoman Empire. > Ahmed Djemal Pasha (Ottoman Turkish: احمد جمال پاشا‎, romanized: Ahmet Cemâl Paşa; 6 May 1872 – 21 July 1922), also known as Jamal Basha as-Saffah ("the Bloodthirsty") in the Arab world, was an Ottoman military leader and one of the Three Pashas that ruled the Ottoman Empire during World War I and carried out the Armenian Genocide. Notice the common word in those two? Military Leader. At this point you're just spouting rubbish by calling those positions civilian positions. Also the minister of the Interior is very much a quasi-military position in a lot of countries even today, and especially in a centralized government like the Ottoman Empire. As was the position of Prime Minister/Grand Vizier. > In the Ottoman Empire, the Ottoman Military Tribunal convicted and sentenced to death Talaat in absentia for his role in the Armenian Genocide. I'll leave this one as a tangent.
