Did they kill the Armenians because they were Turks or because they were Muslims? They also slaughtered massive numbers of other Christians (Greeks and Assyrians).
Armenians were Christians. But Turkey has practiced genocide on smaller lever on a number of minorities. Most Kurds were/?are Muslim. Kurds in Syria are very pro “secular” (free choice of religion)
Armenians, Greeks, Assyrian, Chaldeans are all Christian. Have all received same treatment. But so have the Kurds. Kurds are NON Arab in origin, hence they are persecuted.
