PBS Great War Documentary on the Armenian Genocide
PBS has a series on WWI, called “The Great War.” One of the historians of the program has this to say about the Armenian Genocide:
“The presence in the northeast of the country of a thriving cultured and relatively wealthy community of Armenians was a difficulty to Turks long before the First World War.
“It became a political and strategic threat when the war broke out because of the place of Armenians in the Russian Empire. However, most Armenians, two million of them living in the Turkish Empire, were no threat whatsoever.
“In many ways, it shows that the old idea that war is politics by other means is outdated in the 20th century. War is hatred by other means. And in this case, hatred means extermination. The First World War was the biggest war ever to date. The Second World War was bigger still. It’s not accident on my mind that both of them were marked by genocide. This is the logic of the brutalization of total war.”

I agree with that historian, and yes WE (Armenians) were never any threat to turGAYS, however….the germans & evil zionist jews saw that a large smart wealthy christian minority in the Anatolian region was a threat to their investment of the berlin-to-baghdad railway and the baku oil pipeline (to the med & black seas) and sought out to GENOCIDE this minority in hopes that we wont have any say to collect tariff on this pipeline and/or the railway.
basically…these evil jews who control the world and who created WW1 (&WW2) needed to make sure they have absolute control of their inferstructures through out western/eastern Anatolia, and took into consideration that because Armenians are smart/wealthy ppl, they might want apply taxes on these companies for running their railways and pipelines through Armenian controlled territories, and jews dont PAY money to anyone, they create the money and make everyone (goyims) PAY to them. someone might wonder why they dont make turGAY pay….because at that time turGAYS had been in bed with jews from 500 yrs prior. also, the evil illuminaties wanted to have Anatolia because its a perfect strategic location on the map of the world, and they didnt want Armenians controlling that cross road of Europe & Asia.
its funny how i am labeled as a “RACIST” by so many (including my own ppl) yet Armenians were genocided because of being……well, Armenians. so who is the racist now ? i should say our enemies are very racist and we (Armenians) have very much reason to be racist back. although hating on a group of ppl for WHAT they do is not considered racism by any means, but apparently hating on ppl for WHO they are would be.

You gotta be pretty talented to mix homophobia, antisemitism, turkophobia and germanophobia.

Hayaser, when I read a couple of your vitriolic comments on YouTube I suspected it, but after sifting through the past few comments you made here I am certain: you are a lunatic. And stop using “we” so much. You don’t speak for all Armenians.
