Now we all know that the Armenian genocide of 1915 was a fact of

history, that one and a half million Armenian men, women and children

were raped, knifed, burned and shot to death by the Ottoman Turks.

ottoman schmottoman?

Semantics and more semantics.

Where are these commentators learning the term “ottoman furks”?

Don’t tell me. From us. It is time we call the spade a spade.

We tried so hard, we pleaded, begged and promised to not blame the Big G not on the furks but the ottomans. We failed miserably. Yes, we know the sultan committed massacres of 1895 and 1909, but by 1911 there was neither a sultan nor an ottoman empire. In 1915 there virtually was no sultan or an empire. The principal engineers of the Big G, enver, talat and jemal kaka’s were not ottomans, they were so called “young FURKS”. Let me repeat, they were not ottomans, they were FURKS. Neither was kakafurk an ottoman, who virtually cleansed the country, mainly Kilikia of “giavours”, attacked Sardarapat, Aparan and Vanadzor. Presided over the humiliating “treaties” of Moscow and Kars.

Semantics and more semantics.

Has mehmet blamed the atrocities to their ottoman predecessors, like the Germans and Nazis, that they are not the criminally genocidal ottomans?

They have not separated themselves from the genocidal ottomans.

Then, why are we still playing with those childish word games like ottoman v furkey? Who blockaded Armenia?

The ottoman sultan?
