In 1915,
the young Turkish governance under Interior Minister Talât Pascha decides the
eradication of the Armenian people. They assume that Armenia supported Russia
in the fight against Turkey.
Between
1915 and 1923, 1.5 Mio. Armenians are cruelly murdered.
Hitler expresses
himself about the first Genocide of the 20th century as follows:
“Accordingly,
I have placed my death-head formation in readiness—for the present only in the
East—with orders to them to send to death mercilessly and without compassion,
men, women, and children of Polish derivation and language. Only thus shall we
gain the living space which we need. Who, after all, speaks today of the
annihilation of the Armenians?“
The unimaginable: The Turkish government has denied this crime ever
since. Faked history books and
pertinent propaganda make sure that many Turks grow up with this lie and deny
the Genocide as well.
Here, you can catch up on the Armenian Genocide with some selected
reports and links.
