Since this process is so well known that's why no one will let the Turks off the hook on the genocide of the Armenians.
For the most part, that's all the Turks did, too ~ just relocate them.
The Brits thought they'd do that in South Africa in their attack against the Boor settlers. They ended up murdering over a hundred thousand women and children. The Nazis were later encouraged by such a success rate.
We exempt people from guilt when they organize a mass exodus in the face of disaster. Otherwise, we don't. The internment of the JAs (mostly women and children) falls into the category of such events which should not be forgiven.
You're describing what "coyotes" do to their paying customers getting them across our border.

Is that why Armenians will maybe get 5 minutes of airtime on April 24th? Come on, the Armenian Genocide is not taught in schools. After all, the Turks are our (((friends))). There is a large Armenian community in greater Los Angeles area that has been trying to change this ignorance, but all they get is a pat on the head.

Ahhhh, the Boer Wars. Talk about derailing a thread ;-) Btw, that was fought on both sides. In war, there has to be a loser. Being Irish Catholic, I'm not real fond of the British tactics when it comes to civilians.

Could you possibly rephrase that paragraph? It doesn't make sense. Thanks....
