OMG. I’ve never seen that before, nor in truth can I say I’ve heard of it.
I’m ready for another good ol religious war...sick of pussy footing around with those savages!
If that is suppose to be real do you have a source?
What I mean is a source that proves that that is real and not from a movie or something.
That is a still frame from the 1919 Hollywood produced documentary silent film, Auction of Souls (only 20 minutes of the film survive today) which portrayed eye witnessed events from the Armenian Genocide, including the image above of crucified Armenian Christian girls. In her memoir, Ravished Armenia, Aurora Mardiganian described being raped and thrown into a harem (which agrees with Islams rules of war). Unlike thousands of other Armenian girls who were discarded after being defiled, she managed to escape. In the city of Malatia, she saw 16 Christian girls crucified: Each girl had been nailed alive upon her cross, spikes through her feet and hands, only their hair blown by the wind, covered their bodies. She eventually escaped to the West, wrote her memoir and saw it produced into the Hollywood documentary which was shown in major U.S. and European cities.
A woman claims to have seen this. It is from a movie. It portrays what she claims to have seen.
No one denies the massive deaths resulting from the Ottoman Empire war with Armenia among others.-- especially from the actions of the Ottoman Empire against Armenians living in Turkey.
However I am old enough to remember when the Cold War started, the Republic of modern Turkey was a loyal ally against the U.S.S.R. of which Armenia was a long-time "republic." The Cold War was rife with communist disinformation.
Regulars may tire of seeing this (below) but as far as I know it is still true; to wit, the issue of the "genocide" is for the purposes of pursuing world opinion to increase chances that a world "court" will order the modern Republic of Turkey to turn over territory and wealth to Armenia.
As far a I recall Turkey does not deny the horrors but will not describe it as genocide. Turkey also disputes the death count and points to the huge number of Turks killed during the W.W.I hostilities that had Russia and Armenia battling Germany and the Ottoman Empire.
It would be far better IMO if Armenia would just come out and admit this rather than year-after-year, country-after-country demand resolutions condemning modern Turkey for something that happened 100 years ago before modern Turkey existed. To wit,
"the admission of the Armenian Genocide by Turkey is an issue of secondary importance for us. The following issue must be raised: a cruel crime was committed against the Armenian people. The whole nation was actually annihilated, our lands were seized and our 3,000-year-old culture was destroyed. This is not only a cruel crime, but also a great injustice. Therefore, our true demand is compensation for this injustice. The world must know about what happened, and we have to a great extent succeeded. The Turkish side is well aware that the step to follow the admission of the Armenian Genocide by Turkey will be a demand for compensation and return of the lands. This is the reason why Turkey will not admit the Armenian Genocide . . . ."
So what happens now? the Kurds also demand the same territory -- who by the way were also guilty of murdering thousands of Armenians -- as well was Kaiser Wilhelm II German Emperor aware and, some say, abetted the attempted extermination of Russia's ally, the Armenians.
I recall that the article (that I linked) admits that Turkey acknowledges the deaths. The horrors did in fact happen. There are elsewhere claims of hundreds of thousands of Turk civilians killed also.. the real issue seems to be territory and retribution demanded of modern Turkey.
(Lawsuits have forced insurance companies to pay Armenians in recent years.)
BTW, speaking of murdering the Armenian people and destroying Armenian culture -- how many Armenians were killed when the Bolsheviks took over and, I think, made Armenia the first Soviet "republic" established outside of Russia?
