Cyborg, "the Terminator," in Action

 

Cynog Dafis often enjoys backing up his position by referring to British sources, knowing that the nation where he resides would more easily accept these sources as legitimate. Following in that pattern, I will also concentrate on British sources.

He begins his case by putting on the table what he considers convincing evidence.

 

A year earlier, an exhibition was held there of the shocking pictures taken by Armin Wegner, which form a key part of the evidence for the genocide.

If the photographs of Armin Wegner constitute such key evidence, no wonder the pro-Armenians are worried. That only goes to show the utter lack of genuine evidence for the so-called genocide, which defines a systematic extermination plan against a people, like what the Nazis did to the Jews. Wegner's photographs — which cannot be verified, according to Stutgart's Schiller-Nationalmuseum Deutsches Literaturarchiv (the German museum where the originals are stored; the director explained, when asked by a reporter from ATA-USA Magazine: "Unfortunately, we do not have any indication regarding when or in what country the Wegner photographs were taken. As a result, the dating, and sites depicted must be determined by whoever uses the photos''), only show suffering people, along with a few corpses. The "Sick Man of Europe" was a graveyard, with pro-Armenian Ambassador Morgenthau stating in his phony, ghostwritten book that thousands of Turks were dying daily, estimating a quarter of the Empire's Muslim population was lost to famine.

Between 1894 and 1896, for example, over 100,000 Armenians were killed by special forces on the sultan's orders.

"Agitation and terror were needed to elevate the spirit of the people. The (Hunchak) party aimed at terrorizing the Ottoman Government, thus contributing toward lowering the prestige of that regime and working toward its complete disintegration." Wrote Prof. Louise Nalbandian in "Armenian Revolutionary Movement," 1963; "Terrorism has, from the beginning, been adopted by the Dashnak Committee of the Caucasus, as a policy.... in their program adopted in 1892 …Method No 11 is: 'To subject the government institutions to destruction and pillage'," wrote K.S. Papazian in "Patriotism Perverted," 1934. These and other "Ku Klux Klan" type Armenian terrorist organizations sprang forth since the 1870s, led by fanatical leaders whose purpose was to incite Muslim populations in order for Armenians to be massacred, calling in the imperialist Christian powers to help them carve out territory... in similar vein of Balkan possessions, swept by nationalism, that were finding independence throughout the 19th century. Like the 1915 period, there is absolutely no proof of any extermination policy. The British Consul at Erzurum (in British author C.F. Dixon's 1916 The Armenians, pg. 61) said "not one Armenian would have been killed" had Armenian revolutionary committees not incited the people to revolt." British Captain C. B. Norman asserted in "The Armenians Unmasked" (1895) that only one-tenth of the Armenian Patriarch's estimate was true, and that "none of these (massacre) stories have been corroborated by a single European eye-witness." An objective estimate of Armenian mortality of the period could not have exceeded 20,000 (which is a tenth of the typical claim of Armenian losses during this period — Cyborg earns points by not going overboard, here —, while others prefer to believe 300,000 and over; the more the casualties, the greater the "sympathy"), while 5,000 Turkish lives were lost, and are never referred to by these hypocrites

.

In 1915 there were 2 million Armenians living in Turkey: 10 per cent of the country's population. During 1915, 1.5 million of them were killed, and the majority of the rest was taken away. In May 1918, as the Turkish army made an eastward incursion, a further 100,000 were killed.

Isn't it amazing how Cyborg is so programmed, he mechanically repeats the typical Armenian propaganda? If this is an indication of how he conducts his research in matters affecting West Wales, blatantly considering only one side of an issue, then woe to the voters who brought him into office.

Over a dozen pre-war "neutral" (Western, and really pro-Armenian) estimates ranged from 1 million (Arnold Toynbee in his 1915 work, "Nationalism and the War," shortly before he joined his government's propaganda division, and the 1912 Blue Book) to 1.6 million (Armenian Patriarch Ormanian and the Turk-hating Lepsius), with the Ottoman census settling at the median, 1.3 million. Only Armenians offer figures nearing 2 million and over. The Armenians also admit 1 million survived (Boghos Nubar and Istanbul's Armenian Patriarch in 1921; Peter Balakian [along with his main squeal, Silly Samantha Power] in a Jan. 20, 2004 New York Times letter); Subtract 1 million from 1 to 1.6 million, and there is the real figure of Armenian casualties from all causes combined, mainly famine, disease and combat… and not simply massacres. Cynog Dafis's mathematics tells us 1.6 million died, more Armenians than existed, leaving 400,000 survivors… less than half of what even the Armenians concede survived.

David Lloyd George's bitterly ironic words, had been 'simplified'…

Lloyd George offered worse bitter words, such as "The Turks are a human cancer," following in the proud footsteps of William Gladstone's appalling racism. Lloyd George, who hoped to wipe the Turkish nation off the face of the post war world via the Sevres Treaty, is not a legitimate witness... any more than blacks and Jews would champion David Duke to speak objectively with their interests in mind.

When Kemal Ataturk came to power in 1920, the work, of destroying every trace of the Armenians' heritage, including architectural masterpieces, libraries, archives, and entire cities and villages continued just as systematically-destroying 3,000 years of history.

Coming across these sorts of claims only produces deep sighs within me, as they are mindlessly repeated everywhere... and I just accept it as a fact of life, in our bigoted Western world. However... how dare Cyborg make such defamatory charges? especially if he's ever cornered to present the proof of such ugly words, we all know he won't be able to come up with anything... at least not regarding the "systematic" end. Shameful.

Quite the contrary, Atatürk was magnanimous toward the Armenians, as evidenced by Article 3 of the Treaty of Gümrü, signed on December 2, 1920 between Turkey and Armenia, allowing the relocated Armenians to return to their lands… something even their Russian "allies" did not allow, according to "Article 17" of Dennis Papazian's "What Every Armenian Should Know." The true picture of systematic destruction was evidenced by genuine and pro-Armenian American eyewitnesses Niles and Sutherland in 1919, researching for the pro-Armenian Near East Relief: "In the entire region from Bitlis through Van to Bayezit we were informed that the damage and destruction had been done by the Armenians... the Armenians are accused of having committed murder, rape arson and horrible atrocities of every description upon the Musulman population..."

"The testimony was absolutely unanimous and was corroborated by material evidence... Villages said to have been Armenian were still standing whereas Musulman villages were completely destroyed."
