Facts:
1) Armenians were fighting their own state (Turkish Empire) from inside
2) Armenians wanted an independent state and fought for it
3) Armenians sabotaged the Turkish army and its supply lines
4) Armenians did ethnic-cleansings in the East to "make room"
for their own promised state
5) They were supporting the enemy armies (Russians, British, French)
6) Armenian soldiers in the Turkish Empire changed sides
7) Armenians in the East had therefore to be relocated to the South
A relocation or deportation in such a war situation is the legal right
of every nation, even today. Study the history of such "deportations"
and you will see that what the Turkish Empire did was a neccessary
and just step. And you will see that there were other deportations
which had much less reason for deportation than the deportation of the
Armenians.
For example the deportation of the entire Crimean Tatars in WWII,
where more than half of the people died; and this was about 30 years
later, ie. when much more and better transportation capabilities were
available than in 1915.
Before classifying the deportation of the Armenians as "genocide"
one has to classify other deportations first so, especially the
deportation
of the Crimean Tatars.
Study history well, don't let you brainwashed by hearsay propaganda
stories.
Armenians are masters of propaganda and faking of documents.
This has been proved many times.
Don't see the events only from one side; everything has two sides...
There was no "Armenian genocide", only a legal relocation/deportation in
1915
with unfortunately many deads; it was war time and the Turkish Empire
was fighting for its own survival when it was attacked by Russia, England,
France, the Arabs, and some more countries...
Study history
If WWI hadn't happened then today Turkey would be one of the richest
and mightiest nation on Earth because of the Oil in todays Iraq, which
then
belonged to the Turkish Empire...
Britain, the superpower of then, wanted to prevent this.... Rest is
history...
