Armenian Genocide of 2.5 Million Muslim People

_The Jewish Times_ June 21, 1990

_An appropriate analogy with the Jewish Holocaust might be the
 systematic extermination of the entire Muslim population of 
 the independent republic of Armenia which consisted of at 
 least 30-40 percent of the population of that republic. The 
 memoirs of an Armenian army officer who participated in and 
 eye-witnessed these atrocities was published in the U.S. in
 1926 with the title 'Men Are Like That.' Other references abound._

             of 2.5 million Muslim people_


 _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._

_Foreword:_

_For example, we were camped one night in a half-ruined Tartar 
 mosque, the most habitable building of a destroyed village, near 
 the border of Persia and Russian Armenia. During the course of 
 evening I asked Ohanus if he could tell me anything of the history 
 of the village and the cause of its destruction. In his matter of 
 fact way he replied, Yes, I assisted in its sack and destruction, 
 and witnessed the slaying of those whose bones you saw to-day 
 scattered among its ruins._

p. 218 (first and second paragraphs)

_We Armenians did not spare the Muslims. If persisted in, the 
 slaughtering of Tartars, the looting, and the rape and massacre 
 of the helpless become commonplace actions expected and accepted 
 as a matter of course.

 I have been on the scenes of massacres where the dead lay on the 
 ground, in numbers, like the fallen leaves in a forest. Muslims 
 had been as helpless and as defenseless as sheep. They had not died 
 as soldiers die in the heat of battle, fired with ardor and courage, 
 with weapons in their hands, and exchanging blow for blow. They had 
 died as the helpless must, with their hearts and brains bursting 
 with horror worse than death itself._

p. 15 (second paragraph)

_The Tartars [Muslims] were, for the most part, poor. Some of them 
 lived in villages and cultivated small farms; many of them continued 
 in the way of life of their nomadic forefathers. They drove their 
 flocks and herds from valley to valley, from plain to mountain, and 
 from mountain to plain, following the pasturage as it changed with 
 the seasons. They ranged from the salt desert shores of the Caspian 
 Sea far into the mighty Caucasus Mountains. Even the village Tartars 
 are a primitive people, only semicivilized.

 I can see now that we Armenians frankly despised the Tartars, and, 
 while holding a disproportionate share of the wealth of the country, 
 regarded and treated them as inferiors._


p. 20 (second paragraph)

_Our men armed themselves, gathered together and advanced on the 
 Tartar section of the village. There were no lights in the houses 
 and the doors were barred, for the Tartars suspected what as to 
 happen and were in great fear. Our men hammered on the doors, but 
 got no response; whereupon they smashed in the doors and began a 
 carnage that continued until the last Tartar was slain. Throughout 
 the hideous night, I cowered at home in terror, unable to shut my 
 ears to the piercing screams of the helpless victims and the loud 
 shouts of our men. By morning the work was finished._

"It can not be denied that in the first few months of the war, the majority of the Russian Armenians were driven by strong anti-Turkish feeling". (Hovannisian,?)"*8

"Growing nationalism on the part of Armenians provoked massacres by the Turks and confiscations by Russians"(The New Encyclopedia of Brittanica,1997).*5

"The Armenians in the eastern provinces,encouraged by Russia,began promoting Armenian territorial autonomy.As the movement grew,various political groups were organized, culminating in the formation of two revolutionary parties...When the Armenians in Sasun refused to pay the oppressive taxes ,Turkish troops and Kurdish tribesmen killed thousands of them and burned their villages in 1894.... ...In the hope of calling the attention of the European powers to their cause,the Armenian revolutionaries staged another demonstration two years later:They seized the Ottoman Bank in Istanbul.The repression of this action was again sanguinary;more than 50.000 Armenians were killed... ...Armenians from the Caucasus region formed volunteer battalions to help the Russian Army against Turks.Early in 1915 these battalions organized the recruiting of Turkish Armenians from behind the Turkish lines.In response,the Turkish government ordered the deportation of about 1,750.000 Armenians to Syria and Mesopotamia...(The New Encyclopedia of Brittanica,1997). *5

"The Armenians expected outside assistance in their efforts to break away from Ottoman misrule and were led to carry out a number of rash actions".(Howard,H.N.1995)*4
