Historian Taner Akçam decpihred the telegram by executive of Teşikilat-ı Mahsusa (Secret Organization) and Commitee of Union and Progress Bahaettin Şakir dated July 4, 1915. The telegram is about coordination of deportation and annihilation of Armenians. The letterhead on the telegram proves that it is indeed original.
We have a telegram written by Bahaettin Şakir on July 4, 1915, which was sent to Governor Sabit Bey for delivering it to Elağız (Harput/Kharpet) Inspector of CUP Nazım Bey. The purpose of the telegram was to coordinate deportation and annihilation of Armenians. The telegram reads: “Are the Armenians who were deported from there being evacuated? Are the troublesome individuals whom you have reported as being exiled are being annihilated or merely sent off and deported? Please report back honestly."

I once said in passing, conjecturing that the Germans learned how to commit genocide from the Turks and this proves it.
Thanks for perspective.
The young Turks have been shielded from the enormity of what was done. That doesn’t mean they wouldn’t do the same though.
I recently came across an analysis of the Mark of the Beast (which has been out there for a while) that suggested that what John was seeing was script in an unknown language that nevertheless resembled known Greek letters Chi Xi Stigma.
It was pointed out that the letters Xi Stigma are a very close approximation to the Arabic for “in the name of Allah” with the symbol of the crossed swords being the Chi.
These are used in badges of servitude long worn by Muslims, right up to this very day.
That photo came from the 1919 Hollywood (Santa Clara CA) film, "Ravished Armenia", but does portray a real event according to the book's author, eyewitness Aurora Mardiganian.
“revulsion towards the Turks of that era”
And now Today? Turkey has never acknowledge any of them Massacres or the Genocide. They have never changed either.
It is as real at threat today as it was then.
Very sobering, this must end.
Since I'm ignorant of history, what's the purpose of that link and its historical value?
Seems like a condemnation of Jews to me......
The Atatürk revolution after the First World War was intended to both modernize and secularize Turkey.
In 1952 Turkey joined NATO and was a staunch ally against the old Soviet Union.
Last time I checked, the US still has military bases in Turkey.
Sadly, in recent years Turkey has slid back to a more Islamist orientation, unknown today how really bad things are there.
Like you, I suspect the worst.
I thought it had some interesting insights from...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aleksandr_Solzhenitsyn#Imprisonment
Solzhenitsyn seems to have a credible and intimate familiarity with the historical territory.
It seems reasonable that what Ukrainians call the Holodomor ,in refereence to the genocidal starvation of 6-10 million Ukrainians, is historically relevant in the context 19th, 20th, and 21st centuries.
For me it's of personal interest because my Great Great Grandfather loaded his family in a cattle boat subsequent to the events of 1915 when the Holodomor of 1933 was preceded by similar famines, engineered by the fans of Vlad Lenin and his associates.
"The Bolsheviks, founded by Vladimir Lenin and Alexander Bogdanov, were by 1905 a major organization consisting primarily of workers under a democratic internal hierarchy governed by the principle of democratic centralism, who considered themselves the leaders of the revolutionary working class of Russia. Their beliefs and practices were often referred to as Bolshevism."
If my family had stayed in the old country they almost certainly would've been sent...

...to the Gulags, or worse. And that reinforces my belief that what Solzhenitsyn had to say was relevant to the whole context of the "revoluationary" era.
It's the BEHAVIOR that should be of concern, not the ethnic taxonomy.
It was a blueprint for the Holodmor before that.

The ironic/interesting thing is that the Holodomor genocide of 6-10 million Ukrainians by engineered starvation occurred in 1933, a year in which Ukraine had a bountiful harvest, which was sold to “The West” (Germany) in exchange for technology required to “protect Socialism”:
Harvest figures:
• The 1931 harvest was 18.3 million tons of grain;
• The 1932 harvest was 14.6 million tons of grain;
• The 1933 harvest was 22.3 million tons of grain;
• The Soviet regime dumped 1.7 million tons of grain on the Western markets at the height of the Holodomor.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=afVdnbMd6gA&feature=youtu.be&t=14m14s
[Johann von Herwarth:
The government of Weimar, the democratic government, was well aware of what was going on in the Soviet Union. But the attitude of the government was, I would say, you could call it passive, and with the younger one of the Embassy we always were of the opinion then at that period that we ought not to have any commercial relations with the criminal government which allowed hundreds of thousands and even millions of people to starve. The government said we had already great unemployment in Germany, and if we stopped delivering manufactured goods to the Soviet Union, you would increase unemployment in Germany. That was the situation. ]

Yes. We have large bases in Turkey.
For now. If they attack Kurds in Syria, the use of Turk bases will end.

>> “Erdogan the Islamist intends a repeat.” <<
Yep!
Will be carried out by “Harun Yahya” most likely.
Joel Richardson has written books about this plan.
I’ll pass on that book and “the plan”.
It’s still 7th century nonsense.
Don’t forget the Jews.
.
No, Joel is right on the money.
He has fully examined what Islam is all about, relative to the word of God. “Antichrist” will definitely rise out of Turkey.
