Bewijs dat Armeense "genocide" leugens vernietigt

In deze topic wil ik voor eens en voor altijd aantonen dat het Armeense genocide verhaal een fabeltje is. Het Armeense verhaal is namelijk dat de Turken 1,5 miljoen onschuldige Armeniers uitgeroeid heeft en dat er geen sprake was van enig verzet van Armeense zijde. De Turkse versie is dat er een grote Armeense opstand was. Dat Armeniers massaal zich bij het uitbreken van WO I aansloten bij Rusland. Dat er een burgeroorlog was uitgebroken in oost Turkije waarbij Armeniers en Turken elkaar afslachten en dat de Turken geen andere keuze hadden dan het deporteren van de Armeniers. De meeste Armeniers zijn tijdens de tocht omgekomen door honger en ziekten waar de Turken ook onder te leiden hadden.

Allereerst het bewijs dat er een grote Armeense opstand was en dat Armeense bendes op beestachtige wijze Turkse en Koerdische dorpen aan het aanvallen en uitroeien waren (wat overigens ook kan doorgaan voor genocide)

"Only 1,500 Turks remain in Van"
Gochnak, an Armenian newspaper published in the United States, May 24,1915 ... in a proud report documenting the slaughter of the Turkish citizenry of Van.

Van had een bevolking van 40.000. Ik was met een Armeniër aan het discussieren. Hij claimde dat de Turken waren omgekomen omdat de Armeniërs zich tegen de Turken verdedigden. De bevolking is echter teruggebracht van 40.000 naar 1500. Van deze 40.000 zijn er 20.000 vrouwen. Worden in een defensieve oorlog ook vrouwen vermoord? Van de 20.000 mannen zijn misschien de helft kinderen. Worden kinderen ook vermoord bij een defensieve oorlog? Moesten de Armeniërs zich ook tegen vrouwen en kinderen verdedigen? De Armeniër had daar geen antwoord op.

" All Turkish children also should be killed as they form a danger to the Armenian nation"
Hamparsum Boyaciyan, nicknamed "Murad," a former Ottoman parliamentarian who led Armenian guerilla forces, ravaging Turkish villages behind the lines, 1914. Cited from Mikael Varandian, "History of the Dashnaktsutiun."


"I killed Muslims by every means possible. Yet it is sometimes a pity to waste bullets for this. The best way is to gather all of these dogs and throw them into wells and then fill the wells with big and heavy stones. as I did. I gathered all of the women, men and children, threw big stones down on top of them. They must never live on this earth." A. Lalayan, Revolutsionniy Vostok (Revolutionary East) No: 2-3, Moscow, 1936.


"We have never denied the Armenian crime of genocide inflicted upon 2.5 million Muslim people between 1914 and 1920." Agop Zahoryan, 'Voices of Agonies', London; Reprint 1954, p. 91

"When we arrived at Zeve, the village couldn't be passed through because of its stench. It was as if the bones in our noses would fall off... There were bodies everywhere. We saw a weird scene on the threshold of one house: they had filled the house with Muslims and burned it, and so many people had been burnt that the fat that had oozed from under the threshold had turned back into the trench in front of the door. That is, it was as if the river of fat had risen and later receded. The fat was still fresh. The entire village had been destroyed and was in this situation. I saw this with my own eyes, and I'll never forget it. We heard that they did the same thing to the Muslims on Carpanak Island. The Armenians told me about the latter; I did not see it for myself.” Haci Osman Gemicioglu, an Armenian-Turk (having converted to Islam) who eyewitnessed the 1915 Zeve massacre; as told to Huseyin Celik, during interviews conducted in the late 1970s-early 80s.

"It is in our blood to hate the Turks. However, we hate Bulgarians and Greeks also. The Jews like Turks, but they hate Arabs. The Arabs, in their turn, are not in favour with the Turks. And the level of hatred is rising."
Narek Mesropian, Golos Armenii, a Russian-language newspaper in Armenia, in an August 5, 1997 article reflecting the tension between the Armenian and Jewish communities.

"Thousands of Armenians from all over the world, flocked to the standards of such famous fighters as Antranik, Kery, Dro, etc. The Armenian volunteer regiments rendered valuable service to the Russian Army in the years of
1914-15-16."Kapriel Serope Papazian, Patriotism Perverted, Boston Baker Press, 1934, pg. 38

"I have it from absolute first-hand information that the
Armenians in the Caucasus attacked Tartar (Muslim) villages
that are utterly defenseless and bombarded these villages
with artillery and they murder the inhabitants, pillage the
village and often burn the village." Admiral Mark Bristol, Bristol Papers, General Correspondence: Container #32: Bristol to Bradley Letter of September 14, 1920.

"The Moslems who did not succeed in escaping [the city] were put to death..." Grace H. Knapp, The Tragedy of Bitlis, Fleming H. Revell Co., New York (1919) , page 146.

"We closed the roads and mountain passes that might serve as ways of escape for the Tartars (Turks), and then proceeded in the work of extermination. Our troops surrounded village after village. Little resistance was offered. Our artillery knocked the huts into heaps of stones and dust, and when the villages became untenable and the inhabitants fled from them into the fields, bullets and bayonets completed the work." Ohanus Appressian, describing incidents in 1919; Memoirs of an Armenian officer, Men are Like That, 1926.

"This three-day massacre by Armenians is recorded in history as the 'March Events' and thousands of Muslims, old people, women and children lost their lives." F. Kazemzadeh, The Struggle for Transcaucasia (New York, 1951),

“As the Armenians found support among the Reds (who regarded the Tartars as a counter-revolutionary elements) the fighting soon became a massacre of the Tartar population” W. E. D. Allen and Paul Muratoff, “Caucasian Battlefields”, Cambridge University Press, 1953, p. 481

"The Armenians did exterminate the entire Muslim population of Russian Armenia as Muslims were considered inferior to the Armenians by the prominent leaders of the Dashnaks."
Mikael Kaprilian, Armenian revolutionary leader, in Yerevan, 1919


"Many massacres were committed by the Armenians until our army arrived in Erzurum... (after General Odesilitze left) 2,127 Muslim bodies were buried in Erzurum's center. These are entirely men. There are ax, bayonet and bullet wounds on the dead bodies. Lungs of the bodies were removed and sharp stakes were struck in the eyes. There are other bodies around the city."

Official telegram of the Third Royal Army Command, addressed to the Supreme Command, March 19, 1918; ATASE Archive of General Staff, Archive No: 4-36-71. D. 231. G.2. K. 2820. Dos.A-69, Fih.3

"Since all the Moslems capable of bearing arms were in the
Muslim Army, it was easy to organize a terrible massacre by
the Armenians against defenseless people, because the Armenians were not only attacking the sides and rear of the Eastern Army paralyzed at the front by the Russians, but were attacking the Moslem folk in the region as well."
General Bronsart von Schellendorf , Deutsche Allgemeine Zeitung, July 24, 1921


Nu een aantal aanhalingen die laten zien dat Armeense kinderen worden grootgebracht met haat voor Turken:

"For too many years Armenian mothers had lulled their children to sleep with songs whose theme was Turkish fierceness and savagery." Ohanus Appressian, lending testimony to how innocent Armenian children are subjected to the brutality of racism by their parents; their "Love NOT Thy Neighbor" churches are also known to join in this hatred bandwagon. Men Are Like That, 1926.

"... It's better that I be a dog or a cat, than a Turkish barbarian..." Edna Petrosyan, a SIX YEAR OLD Californian girl who recites hateful poems on the insistence of her mother. The Los Angeles Times, February 1, 1990

"Who wants to defend Turks?"
Pauline Kael, "When The Lights Go Down," 1980, p.499

"...In the early part of 1915, therefore, every Turkish city contained thousands of Armenians who had been trained as soldiers and who were supplied with rifles, pistols, and other weapons of defense. The operations at Van once more disclosed that these men could use their weapons to good advantage..." Henry Morganthau, U.S. Ambassador to the Ottoman Empire, Ambassador Morgenthau's Story, Doubleday, Page & Co., Garden City, New York (1918, page 301)

Nog een quote van Morgenthau. Wat Morgenthau heeft geschreven wordt gebruikt door Armeniërs om de Armeense genocide te bewijzen.

"I have really found it impossible to sit down and dictate a letter quietly. So I have instructed (Hagop) Andonian to take my diary and copy it with some elaborations of his own. Of course this relieves me of all responsibility for any error." Henry Morganthau, U.S. Ambassador to the Ottoman Empire (Lowry, 1990; Franklin Delano Roosevelt Presidential Library, New York, Letters; Box 7 May 11, 1915; Box 1 ­ 2 September 1, 1915; Box 8 July 13, 1915)

Zoals je kunt lezen had Morgenthau een ARMEENSE werknemer die hij het bevel gaf zijn eigen gedachtes toe te voegen. Is dat nu een onafhankelijke en betrouwbare bron? Er waren veel Armeense werknemers in de Amerikaanse ambassade.

Zijn sommige westerlingen echt objectief genoeg om in staat te zijn de Armeense kwestie te kunnen beoordelen? Lees het volgende:

"The Turks are a human cancer, a creeping agony in the flesh of the lands they misgovern, rotting every fiber of life. I am glad that the Turk is to be called to a final account for his long record of infamy against humanity."
David Lloyd George, Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, getting ready to annihilate the last remnants of the dying Ottoman Empire.

De volgende quotes laten zien dat de Armeniers in opstand waren gekomen met als doel een interventie van buitenlandse mogendheden te realiseren.

"I am informed, on good authority, that Russia is already commencing her usual intrigues among the Armenians of Asiatic Turkey. Russian agents are being sent into the provinces inhabited by them with the object of stirring up discontent against the rule and authority of the Porte. A Russian party is being formed in the capital amongst the Armenians, which already includes some leading and influential members of that community."
Sir Henry Layard, British Ambassador, in a July 14, 1878 message to British Foreign Secretary Lord Salisbury (British Foreign Office 424/72, pages 160-161, No 211)

"The aim of the Armenian revolutionaries is to stir disturbances, to get the Ottomans to react to violence, and thus get the foreign powers to intervene."
Sir Philip Currie, the British Ambassador in Istanbul, 28 March 1894 (British Blue Book, Nr.6 1894, p.57? Or p. 87).

"The aims of the revolutionary committees are to stir up general discontent and to get the Turkish government and people to react with violence, thus attracting the attention of the foreign powers to the imagined sufferings of the Armenian people, and getting them to act to correct the situation."
Graves, the British Consul in Erzurum, reporting to the British Ambassador in Istanbul, on January 28, 1895. British Blue Book, Nr. 6 (1894), pp. 222-223

"The Dashnaks and Hunchaks have terrorized their own countrymen, they have stirred up the Muslim people with their thefts and insanities, and have paralyzed all efforts made to carry out reforms; all the events that have taken place in Anatolia are the responsibility of the crimes committed by the Armenian revolutionary committees."
Williams, The British vice-consul, writing from Van. (March 4, 1896, British Blue Book, Nr. 8 1896, p.108.)
-------------------------------
"The Protestant missionaries distributed in large numbers to various places in Turkey made propaganda in favour of England and stirred the Armenians to desire autonomy under British protection" Horen Ashikian, The Armenian Patriarch, in "History of Armenia." (Mr. Ashikian was probably quoted, and was not the writer of this book, of which there were several... by process of elimination, the book was probably either the 1936 one written by V.C. Vahan, or one by Vahan Kurjian, in 1958. Hovhannes, the Fifth Catholicos of the Armenians, also wrote a book by the same name in 1912.)

"Correct behavior"
Marechal Franchet d'Esperay, a French commander of the allied occupation army, referring to the Turkish people and military authorities. From the preface of Commander Larcher's "The Turkish War within the First World War."


"The Dashnak revolutionary society is working to stir up a situation in which Muslims and Armenians will attack each other, and thus pave the way for Russian intervention "

"(The Ottoman State) has used its right to defend its existence against Armenian organisations that had fomented and incited disorders and rebellions at the instigaion of the Russians by relying on Russian arms."
Leo (Arakel Babakhanian), Armenian historian, Turkahai Heghopokhutian Kaghaparapanoutiunu (The Ideology of the Revolution of Turkish Armenian), published in Armenian,1934, Paris)

"The outcry and clamor of Armenians and Turks have been persecuting Armenians are nothing but lies. The Turkish government has done nothing evil to Armenians. Perhaps Armenians have planned a revolution taking advantage of the indifference of the government, have armed bands and sent them to mountains, as for the Turks, perhaps they have been trying only to pursue them and put down the uprisings."
Austrian Consul in a report submitted to his government, Nikerled Krayblis, Rusya'nin fiark Siyaseti ve Vilayet-i fiarkiyye Mes'elesi [Eastern Policy of Russia and the question of the Eastern Provinces], translated by Habil Adem, Istanbul, 1932, p. 178

"The truth is that the party (Dashnak Committee) was ruled by an oligarchy, for whom the particular interests of the party came before the interests of the people and nation. They (the Dashnaks) made collections among the bourgeois and the great merchants. At the end, when these means were exhausted, they resorted to terrorism, after the teachings of the Russian revolutionaries that the end justifies the means."
Dr. Jean Loris-Melikoff, La Revolution Russe et les Nouvelles Republiques Transcaucasiennes, Paris, 1920, p. 81

"The most opportune time to institute the general rebellion for carrying out the immediate objectives was when Turkey was engaged in war"
Louise Nalbandian, Armenian Revolutionary Movement, University of California Press, 1963

"As soon as the Russians have crossed the borders and the Ottoman armies have started to retreat, you should revolt everywhere. The Ottoman armies thus will be placed between two fires. On the other hand, the Armenians in the Ottoman army should desert their units with their weapons and unite with the Russians"
Dashnak committee order to the Armenians preparing to revolt within the Ottoman Empire

"The entire Armenian Nation will join forces “ moral and material, and waving the sword of Revolution, will enter this World conflict ... as comrades in arms of the Triple Entente, and particularly Russia. They will cooperate with the Allies, making full use of all political and revolutionary means for the final victory of Armenia, Cilicia, Caucasus, Azerbayjan. ... [H]eroes who will sacrifice their lives for the great cause of Armenia.... Armenians proud to shed their blood for the cause of Armenia...."
Hunchak Armenian [Revolutionary] Gazette, in a call to arms just prior to the formal declaration of war against Germany and the Ottoman Empire, November 1914 issue, Paris.

"The Armenians have taken their place on the side of the Entente states without showing any hesitation whatsoever; they have placed all their forces at the disposition of Russia; and they also are forming volunteer battalions."
Horizon, the Dashnak Society's official organ, as soon as Russia declared war on the Ottoman Empire

"The Hunchak Committee will use all means to assist the Entente states, devoting all its forces to the struggle to assure victory in Armenia, Cilicia, the Caucasus and Azerbaijan as the ally of the Entente states, and in particular of Russia." Hunchak Committee instructions to its organizations in Ottoman territory; Aspirations et Agissements Revolutionnaires des Comites Armeniens avant et apres la Proclamation de la Constitution Ottomane, Istanbul, 1917, pp. 151-153

"The volunteer Armenian regiments in the Caucasus should prepare themselves for battle, serve as advance units for the Russian armies to help them capture the key positions in the districts where the Armenians live, and advance into Anatolia, joining the Armenian units already there."
Papazyan, the Armenian representative in the Ottoman Parliament for Van, in a published proclamation; he would soon turn out to be a leading guerilla fighter against the Ottomans

“The long-anticipated day of deliverance for the Turkish
Armenians is at hand and the Armenians are prepared for any sacrifice made necessary by the performance of their manifest duty.”An Ottoman-Armenian newspaper, probably one of the two published in Van ("Van Kartali" or "Araratli"), as quoted in The New York Times article, ARMENIANS FIGHTING TURKS ("Besieging Van”Others operating in Turkish Army's Rear,") November 7, 1914

"...These gangs were advancing by plundering and pillaging (nehib ve garet) the properties/goods (emvalini) of the Moslem villages they passed through and massacred and destroyed even babies in cradles...." Ottoman Royal Army report describing the actions of 10,000 Armenian committee men (acc'd to the Armenian Catholicos V. the Kevork, B.A. Boryan, Armeniya Mejdunarodnaya Diplomatiya; SSSR. Cast 11, Moskva, 1929, p. 363) regarding the uprising started in "Shitak Country" on April 17, 1915, followed by further riots by Armenians in the entire province of Van, culminating in the Russians' entry of Van on May 19th, causing some 30,000 Turks to flee with heavy losses.

"From all countries Armenians are hurrying to enter the ranks of the glorious Russian Army, with their blood to serve the victory of Russian arms... Let the Russian flag wave freely over the Dardanelles and the Bosporus. Let, with Your will, great Majesty, the peoples remaining under the Turkish yoke receive freedom. Let the Armenian people of Turkey who have suffered for the faith of Christ receive resurrection for a new free life under the protection of Russia." Samson Harutunian, president of the Armenian National Bureau in Tiflis, in response to Czar Nicholas II's visit to the Caucasus, to make final plans for cooperation with the Armenians against the Ottomans. (Source)

"As demonstrated by the innumerable declarations, provocative pamphlets, weapons, ammunition, explosives, & c., found in areas inhabited by Armenians, the rebellion was prepared for a long time, organized, strengthened and financed by Russia. Information was received on time in Istanbul about an Armenian assassination attempt directed at high ranking state officials and officers." General Bronsart v. Schellendorf , Chief of Staff to the Ottoman Commander-in-Chief, Deutsche Allgemeine Zeitung, July 24, 1921

"When war broke out the Armenians of these regions [the Eastern provinces] made secret contact with the Russian authorities in the Caucasus, and an underground network was created which enabled recruits to be gotten from these Turkish provinces for the Russian Army."
Philips Price, A History of Turkey, 1956, p. 91

quote:

Op maandag 5 april 2010 17:21 schreef DrWolffenstein het volgende:
Ja, en nu? Niemand beweert dat de Armeniërs lieve mensen waren. Dat maakt de genocide op de Armeniërs er echter niet minder op.

Feiten:
- Voor en tijdens WO I werden de Armeniers opgehitst door de Engelsen en Russen om in opstand tegen de Turken te komen
- Tijdens WO I komen de Armeniers massaal in opstand en slachten duizenden Turken af, waaronder vrouwen en kinderen (zie bewijzen die ik ga leveren)
- De Armeniers snijden voorraad aanvoerlijnen van het leger af. Voorraad aanvoer is van CRUCIAAL belang in een oorlog. Zonder munitie en granaten kun je niet vechten, laat staan een grootschalige oorlog winnen
- De Turken waarschuwen de Armeniers op te houden met hun activiteiten, echter de Armeniers luisteren niet
- De Turken besluiten tot relocatie van de Armeniers. De Armeniers worden tijdens hun tocht voedsel en medicijnen beloofd. Ook wordt huisvesting beloofd. De Turken hadden geen andere keuze dan de relocatie.
- De Turken zijn echter bij een massale oorlog betrokken. Ze moeten aan vijf fronten tegelijk vechten om de landsgrenzen te verdedigen. Alle middelen zijn nodig aan het front. Hierdoor konden de Armeniers niet goed van voedsel worden voorzien
- Veel Armeniers sterven van honger en ziekten, echter ALLE Turken hebben hier last van door grote tekorten in het rijk
- Het getal van 1,5 miljoen Armeense doden is onmogelijk. In het Ottomaanse rijk woonden volgens Ottomaanse tellingen 1,3 miljoen Armeniers en volgens Engelse tellingen zelfs 1.056.000 Armeniers. Volgens de Armeniers zelf waren er aan het einde van de oorlog nog 1 miljoen Armeniers in leven.

De Turken hadden ze een kans gegeven op te houden met hun verderfelijke activiteiten. Had je zulk humaan gedrag van de Turken niet verwacht?

"Wanneer de Armeense ingezetenen van de voorgenoemde steden en dorpen die moeten worden gereloceerd, worden overgebracht naar hun nieuwe plaats van vestiging en zich onderweg bevinden, dient hun welzijn verzekerd te zijn en hun levens en goederen beschermd. Na hun aankomst ter plekke dienen de kosten voor voedsel betaald te worden uit het Fonds voor Vluchtelingen totdat zij zich definitief gevestigd zullen hebben in hun nieuwe behuizing. Eigendommen en land dienen onder hen verdeeld te worden overeenkomstig hun voormalige financiële situatie en hun huidige behoeften; en voor hen die verdere hulp nodig hebben, dient de regering huizen te bouwen en de landbouwers en de handwerkslieden te voorzien van zaad, landbouwwerktuigen en gereedschap."

[b]The third article of the law states that the law will come into effect on the date of its publication. Finally, on 30 May the Council of Ministers took the following decision
It is absolutely necessary to annihilate and destroy by effective operations this possible harmful activity which has a bad effect on the war's operations which are designed for the benefit of protecting the state's security and existence.

The goal of the operation begun by this order of the Ministry is obvious. It is stated in the memorandum of the Ministry of the Interior that the Armenians who must be transferred, of those residing in the towns and villages, will be sent to their allotted local dwellings. Their transfer will be made in comfortable circumstances, their comfort will be provided on the way, and their lives and possessions will be protected. Until they are settled in their new dwellings, they will be fed through funds of the emigrants' appropriation. In proportion to their previous economic and financial condition, they will be given property and lands; the Government will construct dwellings for the needy ones, will distribute seeds for sowing, tools, and implements to the farmers and craftsmen who need them. Possessions and belongings left behind will be returned to them in an appropriate way. After the value of the possessions and immovable property belonging to the transferred emigrants has been calculated and registered, it will be distributed to the immigrants. Immovable properties such as warehouses, factories, shops, orange groves, vineyards, olive groves, orchards, which would remain outside the specialized sphere of the immigrants, will be sold at auction, or will be leased, and their value will be deposited in financial offices for safe-keeping to be paid to their owners. A regulation has been implemented by the said Ministry to the effect that the expenditures arising from these transactions and procedures be paid from the appropriation set aside for the emigrants. Through this decree, the administration and maintenance of the abandoned properties will be ensured. The general transactions concerning the emigrants will be accelerated, regulated and supervised. Commissions will be formed, which will employ salaried officials who will have the duty and authority, and who will be directly dependent on the Ministry of the Interior. These commissions will be composed of one president and two appointed members, one of whom will be selected from among the officials of the Ministry of the Interior, and the other from among the officials of the Ministry of Finance. These commissions will be sent to their regions, and the quarters where a commission will be present, the Governor will submit to the said Ministry a note stating that they have begun the application of the said regulation, and they will give information to the responsible departments.
These are the texts concerning the relocation decision. As can be seen, the text does not even mention the word `relocation'. The temporary law says `transfer and settle in other quarters', the note of the Ministry of the Interior and the decision of the Council of Ministers refers to `transferring' and 'settling' in the designated and appointed quarters.

Hier zijn meer van dergelijke humane houding van Turken te vinden.
..[/b].[/b].[/b][/b][/b]

Er zijn nog nooit bewijzen gevonden voor een opdracht tot genocide. Er zijn echter wel opdrachten gevonden van de Ottomaanse regering waarin aangegeven werd dat er tijdens de relocatie van de Armeniers er zo goed mogelijk voor de Armeniers gezorgd diende te worden en dat ze geholpen dienden te worden tijdens de tocht.

Ook is aangetoond dat Armeniers vele malen bewijs vervalst hebben.

Vrij delicaat onderwerp zover ik weet. Verschillende wetenschappers en historici erkennen de genocide, waaronder ook Nederland en de EU.

Dat zijn vooral pseudo wetenschappers of wetenschappers die de Armeense kwestie nooit serieus onderzocht hebben. Wetenschappers die de feiten objectief onderzocht hebben kunnen maar één conclusie trekken, namelijk dat er geen sprake was van een genocide. Ik zal zo direct wat stukken van top wetenschappers plaatsen.

Armeense soldaten in Ottomaanse dienst deserteerden massaal met volledige wapenuitrusting
Ver voor de oorlog begon sloegen de Armeniers wapens op in Armeense kerken die ze onder andere van Russen gekregen hadden

Dashnak committee order to the Armenians preparing to revolt within the Ottoman Empire[/QUOTE]

Eerder had Ton Zwaan het volgende geschreven als reactie op het artikel van McCarthy in de volkskrant:

quote:

maar in tegenstelling tot wat hij beweert was er destijds geen sprake van 'een verschrikkelijke oorlog tussen Turken en Armeniërs', noch van een 'grote opstand' van de Armeniërs."

Ton Zwaan is een professor aan de universiteit van Leiden.

Het staat 100% vast dat er een grote opstand was onder de Armeniers. Dit maakt hem totaal ongeloofwaardig. Lees de bewijsstukken die ik geplaatst heb. Ze maken gehakt van de beweringen van Ton Zwaan. Hier volgen een aantal relevante quotes:


"Thousands of Armenians from all over the world, flocked to the standards of such famous fighters as Antranik, Kery, Dro, etc. The Armenian volunteer regiments rendered valuable service to the Russian Army in the years of
1914-15-16."Kapriel Serope Papazian, Patriotism Perverted, Boston Baker Press, 1934, pg. 38

Het officiele verhaal is nu eenmaal dat er geen Armeense opstand was en dat de Turken zomaar 1,5 miljoen Armeniers heeft vermoord. Ik wil aantonen dat dat officiele verhaal niet klopt.

quote:

Op maandag 5 april 2010 17:43 schreef Tomboo het volgende:
Haha zelf ook lekker gehersenspoeld, altijd leuk die "bronnen".

Het meerendeel van deze bronnen zijn afkomstig uit buitenlandse archieven en kranten uit die tijd.

Het bewijs dat er geen 1,5 miljoen Armeniers omgekomen zijn:

Hier is een lijst van de tellingen van de Armeniërs in het Ottomaanse Rijk van die tijd:

-Volgens het Franse Gele Boek: 1.555.000;

-Volgens de Encyclopedia Brittanica: 1.500.000;

-Volgens Constenson: 1.400.000,

-Volgens Lynch: 1.345.000;

-Volgens de officiële Ottomaanse volkstelling van 1914: 1.295.000;

-Volgens het Jaarlijkse Register (Londen); 1.056.000.

Zoals je kunt zien fluctueren de cijfers van westerse bronnen tussen de 1 miljoen en 1,5 miljoen Armeniërs die in het rijk woonden. De Ottomaanse tellingen liggen er met hun 1.295.000 in het midden. Voor belastingtechnische redenen was het voor de Turken belangrijk zo goed mogelijk het aantal Armeense inwoners te weten. De Turken hebben dus volgens de Armeniërs meer Armeniërs omgebracht dan dat er Armeniërs waren. De Turken waren dus zo wreed dat ze veel Armeniërs meerdere malen vermoord hebben. Bogos Noubar, het hoofd van de Armeense delegatie op de Vredesconferentie van Parijs, verklaarde dat er na de oorlog nog 280.000 Armeniërs in Turkije leefden en dat 700.000 Armeniërs waren gemigreerd naar andere landen. Volgens de schatting van Bogos Noubar, bedroeg de totale Armeense bevolking van voor de oorlog 1.300.000. Het aantal Armeense slachtoffers kan dus nooit boven de 300.000 zijn geweest.

Hieronder een quote van Morgenthau. Wat Morgenthau heeft geschreven wordt gebruikt door Armeniërs om de Armeense genocide te bewijzen.

"I have really found it impossible to sit down and dictate a letter quietly. So I have instructed (Hagop) Andonian to take my diary and copy it with some elaborations of his own. Of course this relieves me of all responsibility for any error." Henry Morganthau, U.S. Ambassador to the Ottoman Empire (Lowry, 1990; Franklin Delano Roosevelt Presidential Library, New York, Letters; Box 7 May 11, 1915; Box 1 ­ 2 September 1, 1915; Box 8 July 13, 1915)

Zoals je kunt lezen had Morgenthau een Armeense werknemer die hij het bevel gaf zijn eigen gedachtes toe te voegen. Is dat nu een onafhankelijke en betrouwbare bron? Er waren veel Armeense werknemers in de Amerikaanse ambassade.

quote:

Op maandag 5 april 2010 17:48 schreef Big-Ern het volgende:
Het is maar waar je je na al die vele vele jaren maar druk om kan maken. Kijk eens vooruit ipv achterom!

Dat moeten de Armeniers en de westerlingen die Turken van genocide beschuldigen dat ook maar gaan doen.
