No that it is not what I meant. By today's human rights standards, forcibly moving such a large group of people from one place to another is not acceptable. However, you must keep in mind that the relocation did not aim to destroy a minority, the aim was to move that portion of the population away from the Russian front to another part of the same country. The Armenian collaboration with Russians (the enemy) had reached unbearable proportions and the Armenians and locak Muslims were at eachothers' throats. What else could have been done?

Based on recent history, I'd be more inclined to believe it was the Muslims who were into cutting everyone's throat.
