During the World War I, the Armenian armed militant groups under French and Russian command, killed 2.4 million Ottoman citizens in Anatolia and Caucasus. The loss of Armenians was around 500,000. It is a proven historical fact.

When armenian organizations instigated Armenians to revolt during World War I (1914-1918) against the Ottoman Government, their intention was to exterminate the Turks and to create an independent armenian state in eastern Anatolia where armenians were only about 15% of the total population.

Entire population of the region was subjected to violence beyond belief violence which was planned to exterminate the whole Turkish people of the region to the last man, woman and child. Armenian revolters tortured and massacred large numbers of defenseless civilians. To assemble innocent civilians in the mosques and burn them in the building was one of their methods. Even today the traveler in that region is seldom free from the evidence of these armenian crimes. It must be pointed out that there is no historic position foilikening the annihilation of minority groups under Hitler and the Third Reich to the revolt of the Armenians against the Ottoman Government in 1915.

Armenians have a genuine tale of woe. It largely overlaps with the tale of tragedy and suffering that can be told by Ottoman Muslims during the war years, 2.4 million deaths in Anatolia. Ethnic cleansing, starvation, malnutrition, untreated epidemics and traumatic privations of war under a decrepit and collapsing Empire.
