Genocide of Turkish Cypriots

 

"Genocide - the extermination of the Turks of Cyrpus - had begun. The civilezed world, as the Western nations call themselves, does not like that word genocide!.."

(At the Bosnian war author) Sebastian reported what a United States official told him: At all costs they (the Western nations) had to stay away from the word 'genocide' - the g-word. So they called it 'ethnic cleansing' instead. You couldn't say genocide because that would have required them to act under the UN charter. They would have had to do something to prevent it. Genocide was the whole reason the UN was set up in the first place."

... word of the shooting had spread, and gangs of Greek civilians apparently decided it was an official "open season" day for shooting Turks...."

H.S.Gibbons, The Genocide Files, 1997

"Genocide - the extermination of the Turks of Cyprus - had began."

"Genocide in Cyprus erupted in December, 1963, and I was there to see it. It continued until 1974 when, after a bestial feast of slaughter and rapine that shocked th world, the surviving victims gained their own safe haven.

And now the civilised world, in the form of that self-righteous triumvirate, the United Nations, the Europens Union and the United States, intends to breach that safe haven, where there has been peace for 23 years, and let the genocide recommence.

This is the story of the Cyprus genocide."

Harry Scott Gibbons is a journalist. He served in the Middle East, Cyprus, Turkey, Greece and the United States and is the author of the book "The Genocide Files", published by Charles Bravos, London, 1997.

"What became known as the Christmas War or, in the Turkish version, Bloody Christmas, was actually the Akritas Plan for genocide. There was bloody slaughter of the Turks and the Greeks also paid a terrible penalty in deaths and injuries when

the Turkish fighters hit back, but the Greeks’ aim, enosis, was not realised."... 

"the Akritas Plan for Genocide, was not known for years"...

"The Greeks of Cyprus had attempted genocide against their fellow citizens, the Turks, and had failed.

11 years later, they tried again."...

"The second genocide attempt, as it was later revealed, was due to begin some time after 10 July 1974, the actual date not specified. Athens was totally involved in this plan as documents captured later were to prove..."

"The bloodshed continued on the island for 11 years after that Christmas,

but the world had now lost interest.

Those 11 years were hell on earth for the Turkish Cypriots."

Abstract

The Cyprus problem was solved in July 1974, when the Turkish Armed Forces intervened in the vicious civil war that followed a covert Greek invasion and an Athens inspired and led coup that deposed the president. This intervention - which was legal under the terms of the Treaty of Guarantee, which is firmly embedded in the Cyprus Constitution - brought the civil war to an end, overturned the coup and thus forestalled enosis union with Greece , which the coup leaders later said they intended to declare and which was another act specifically forbidden under the Constitution.

(...) "When Makarios, the spearhead of the terrorist organisation EOKA, which had for years murdered Britons, Turks and Greeks alike in its ambition to end Britain’s colonial occupation and unite the island with Greece, signed up to a constitution for the establishment of a new Cyprus republic, he agreed to give up for ever his single-minded quest for enosis."

Greek Terrorist EOKA' attacks on British citizens (1955/9),

besides Turkish Cypriots!

Harry Scott Gibbons: From "The Genocide Files"

... While Cyprus was ablaze, Britain had been quietly evacuating British civilians, tourists and residents, and any other tourists who wished to leave, from the 6-Mile-Beach on the east of Kyrenia, on the other side of the town from the Turkish landing force. The aircraft carrier Hermes and three other warships were running a shuttle launch and helicopter service between ships and shore while the fighting was going on a few miles away.

I imagine there was cooperation between Britain and Turkey to avoid the two sides getting tangled with each other. Especially when the helicopters moved west to Kyrenia to pick up 4.000 civilians stranded there.

The Paphos Turks had fought all night, but by Sunday morning they were surrounded. They surrendered and handed over their guns. The Greeks rounded up all the Turkish men, killing some of them in the process. The rest were taken to the soccer stadium, but after a few hours were released. They were rounded up again, herded to a square in the Turkish quarter and kept standing for hours. From them on, they were confined to the Turkish quarter and not allowed to leave, even to visit their wounded in the Greek hospital, without special permits issued by the Natioanl Guard. Heavily armed irregulars of EOKA-B patrolled the streets...  (...)

... On monday, July 22, mobs bombarded the British embassy in Athens, saying Britain was aiding Turkey on Cyprus. 100 Athens police stood by and made no attempt to intervene as mobs smashed windows and threw paint on the embassy walls. They painted slogans, one of them "Pigs sons". They smashed cars outside, including the new Rolls Royce of ambassador Sir Robin Hooper. a Leaglet was distributed - "Englismen, if the Hermes (the British aircraft carrier which had evacuated Britons from the island) does not leave, this will be your grave. Death to the English!" ...

Britain and the Revolt in Cyprus 1954/59

20 July - 14 August 1974

It was Not an Invasion, it was a Rescue Mission, after the Civilian Massacres of Turkish Cypriots! (1963/64/67/74)

The Greek Cypriots claim that the Cyprus problem was caused by the landing of Turkish troops in 1974 and that if only they would withdraw the problem would be solved. This is a serious misconception, for modern Cyprus question began in 1960 and the landing of Turkish troops was the consequence, not the cause of the problem...

Van - Türk / Ermeni

Su altı yönetmeni Tahsin Ceylan, Van Gölü'nün ekolojik-arkeolojik sırlarını görüntülemiş, yüzyıllardır suyun altında gizli kalmış, bilinmeyen çok sayıda yaşamı, eseri, hikayeyi gün yüzüne çıkarabilmek için bir kitap hazırlamış: Van Gölü'nün Sırları. Kitap, bugün Van Gölü'nün ortasındaki Akdamar Adası'nda, Gevaş Kaymakamlığı himayesinde düzenlenen etkinlikle tanıtılacak. Güzel iş. Emeği geçenleri tebrik ederim.

Gevaş Kaymakamlığı madem bir işe el attı, tamamına erdirsin; Van Gölü'nün bahsi geçen kitapta yer almadığı aşikar "öteki sırları"nı da dünyaya duyuracak bir adım atsın; Van Gölü'nün "Kan Gölü" olduğu o "karanlık çağı"nı da yazsın, yazdırsın, anlatsın, anlattırsın... Kimseyi bulamazsa ben gönüllüyüm bu "vazife"ye!

Ermenilerin işkenceleri sonucu aklını kaybeden Nezo Hatun'a...

Ermeni zulmünden kurtulmak için kendilerini ateşe verip pervane gibi döne döne; "Gelin kızlar, bizim düğünümüz var. Bugün bizim düğün günümüzdür..." diye ölüme giden Zeve'li genç kızlara...

Yaşadıklarını "Akşam oldu mu bizim içimize Ermeniler gelirdi. 150 tane kadar kadın içinden 10-11 tanesini seçip götürürlerdi. Sabaha kadar bu kadınlara tecavüz ederlerdi. Bu kadınlar öyle olurdu ki kan revan içinde kalır, bırakıldıklarında bacaklarını gere gere yatar, oturamayacak durumda kalırlardı" diye anlatan Seher'e...

Defalarca tecavüze uğrayan 7 yaşındaki Fatma ve 9 yaşındaki Güfaz'a...

Zorla götürülürken kendilerini köprüden Mermit Çayı'na atan iki taze gelin; Zahide ve Fatma'ya...

Derviş Efendi'nin, gözleri önünde tecavüze uğrayan kızları Hayriye ve Şadiye'ye...

Van'ın o mezalim kurbanı biçare, şehit kızlarına, kadınlarına, çocuklarına karşı birikmiş olan saygı borcumuzu ödemek bir "vazife" çünkü bence!

Üstelik...Şehirlerini basan Ermeni çetecilerden kaçabilmek için Van Gölü'ne yönelen Türklerin... Onlara "kurtarıcı" kılığında vapurlarını açan, Van-Akdamar arasında taşımacılıkla meşgul Ermeni zenginlerin... Van Gölü'nün ortasına gelindiğinde bu vapurların nasıl birden zulümhanelere dönüştüğünün... Katledilen erkekler göle atılırken, kadınların Akdamar'daki o "adanın turizm anahtarı diye pamuklara sarılan kilisesinde" nasıl "ömür boyu tecavüz"e mahkûm edildiğinin... Bu akıbete uğramamak için kendilerini göle atan Türk kadınlarının ve Van Gölü'nün nasıl kan rengine döndüğünün hikayesini "ortaya çıkarmak" için hiç öyle suyun metrelerce altına dalmaya filan da gerek yok.

Akdamar'a, iğdiş edilmiş o malum canlının trene baktığı gibi değil de, "harikalar diyarı" olmadığını görecek gibi bakmak kafi!
Ben bunu bir "millî vazife" addediyorum ama...

Konuya "tamamen duygusal" yaklaşanlar; şehre girecek paranın hesabını yapanlar, Akdamar'ı dünyanın her yerinden ziyaretçinin akın edeceği bir "turizm cennneti"ne dönüştürmek niyetinde olanlar varsa... Kolayı var... Dünyanın birçok turistik şehrinde, en çok ziyaret edilen yerler arasında "işkence müzeleri", "soykırım kampları" var... Akdamar Kilisesi'ni de bir "sanat şaheseri" filan diye cilalamak yerine bu yüzüyle çıkarırsanız vitrine, emin olun, insanlık tarihinin eşine az rastlanır işkencelerinden, kırımlarından birine mekan olduğu için de gelir insanlar burayı görmeye!

Kaymakam Bey... Kimsenin değilse bile ağzına balta sapı büyüklüğünde bir kazık çakılan, dili koparılıp bu kazığın üstüne çivilenen 70 yaşındaki Gevaş müftüsünün hatırasının hatırına bunu bir düşünün bence...

Ermeni tatil köyü işin görünen yüzü

Yeniçağ, Mayıs-2008

Prof. Dr. Yusuf Halaçoğlu:" Arşiv kayıtlarına göre, Aktamar'daki haçın, Rusya'dan çetesi ile birlikte Van'a hırsızlığa gelen Michellian adlı bir Ermeni tarafından çalındığı biliniyor."

Özkaya, Van’da Akdamar Kilisesi’nin bulunduğu alana kurulması düşünülen Ermeni tatil köyü projesine sert tepki gösterdi. “Tatil köyün projesindeki ana  hedefin Akdamar Kilisesi olduğu herkes tarafından biliniyor” dedi.

Ermeni tatil köyü projesi büyük tartışma yarattı. Van’da Akdamar Kilisesi’nin bulunduğu yere yapılacak olan tatil köyünün, Türkiye açısından olumlu sonuçlar vermeyeceğini belirten Tapu Kadastro eski Genel Müdür Yardımcısı Orhan Özkaya, bunun bir hıristiyanlaştırma projesi olduğunu kaydetti. Özkaya, yabancıların ve vakıfların yeni toprak satışları yasası çıkmadan önce bölgede toprak alabilmek için büyük çaba sarf ettiklerini ifade ederek, “Yeni yasa muhtemelen Anayasa Mahkemesi’nden dönecek. Yabancılar bunu bildiğinden yasa yüksek yargıdan dönmeden amaçlarına ulaşmak istiyorlar.Bu nedenle  projeyi hayata geçirmek istiyorlar” diye konuştu. 

Van’ı ele geçirecekler

Burada oynanan oyuna dikkat edilmesi gerektiğini kaydeden Özkaya, şöyle devam etti: “Ermeni tatil köyü projesi demek bu bölgede bir Ermeni cemaati yaratmak anlamına gelecektir. Bunun içinde dinler arası diyalog kavramından yararlanacaklar” şeklinde konuştu. Vakıflar yasası ile birlikte vakıfların şirketlerle ortaklık yapabileceklerini ve  istedikleri kadar toprak satın alabileceklerini kaydeden Özkaya, “Bu sınırsız toprak alabilecekleri anlamına gelmektedir. Van ilinin imar planlı alanının yüzde 10’u  yabancıların eline geçecek” dedi.

Akdamar manzaralı tatil köyü geliyor!

Milliyet, Kasım-2010

İki Ermeni işadamı Van’ın Gevaş ilçesinde tatil köyü kurmak için Van Ticaret ve Sanayi Odası (VATSO) ile temasa geçti. Ermeni işadamları, villa tipi, bahçeli ‘tatil köyü’ projelerini hayata geçirmek için VATSO’dan destek istedi. “Akdamar’a çok yakın bir bölgede bulunan Gevaş ilçesini incelediler.  Burası Akdamar’a çok yakın, Gevaş ilçesi. Ayine gelenler otellerde yeteri kadar rahat edemiyorlar. Burada kuracakları tatil köyünde hem huzurlu bir tatil geçirecek hem de ibadetlerini yapabilecekler” dedi.

Van'a Ermeni Yatırımı

Yeniçağ / 19 Kasım 2010

Yatırımcıların vergi indirimlerinden yararlanabileceklerini de belirtirken, hazırladıkları projeyle Avrupa Birliği’nden (AB) fon yardımı alabilecekler de....

AKP iktidarı, Türkiye’ye ”soykırımcı“ diyen Ermenistan’ı memnun edebilmek için devletin kasasından 3 milyon lira harcayıp Akdamar Kilisesi’ni onarıp törenle hizmete açmıştı. Ayrıca yine devletin fonlarıyla Türkiye’de tek taşı kalmış bütün kiliseler elden geçirilmişti. Van’da ki Akdamar Kilisesi’ne 3 milyon harcayan AKP, Belek’teki Dinler Bahçesi için 1.4 milyon, Edirne’de ki Büyük Sinagog için de 3 milyon 700 bin lirayı gözden çıkardı. Tarsus’taki Aziz Paul Kilisesi ve Trabzon’daki Sümela Manastırı da yine milyonlar harcanarak ayinlere açıldı.

Hıristiyanlaştırma projesi

Van’da Akdamar Kilisesi’nin karşısına yapılacak olan tatil köyünün, Türkiye açısından olumlu sonuçlar vermeyeceği dile getirildi. Tapu Kadastro eski Genel Müdür Yardımcısı Orhan Özkaya, bunun bir Hıristiyanlaştırma projesi olduğunu kaydetti. Burada oynanan oyuna dikkat edilmesi gerektiğini, bölgede bir Ermeni cemaati yaratılmaya çalışıldığını vurgulayan Özkaya, ”Bunun için dinlerarası diyalog kavramından yararlanacaklar“ 


Vakıflar yasası ile birlikte vakıfların şirketlerle ortaklık yapabileceklerini ve istedikleri kadar toprak satın alabileceklerini kaydeden Özkaya, ”Bu sınırsız toprak alabilecekleri anlamına geliyor. Van’ın imar planlı alanının % 10’u yabancıların eline geçecek” dedi.

GEVAŞ KAYMAKAMLIĞI

internet sitesinden:

 I.Dünya savaşının başladığı yıllarda, Rus kuvvetleriyle birlikte hareket eden Ermeniler, 1915 yılında, bölgeye girmiş ve bir çok yeri işgal etmişlerdir. Ermeni çetelerinin işgal ettiği yerlerden, biriside Gevaş'tır. İşgal süresince bölge halkına insanlık dışı eziyet, işkence ve zulüm yapılmıştır. 

Gözü dönmüş caniler, çoluk, çocuk, kadın ve yaşlı ayrımı yapmaksızın, binlerce insanımızı acımasızca katletmişler ve, yine Ermeni zulmünden kaçan binlerce vatandaşımızın ise evini, barkını, malını ve sevdiklerini geride bırakıp, doğduğu topraklardan göç etmek zorunda bırakılmışlardır. Göç esnasında, yine birçok vatandaşımız, çeşitli sebeplerden dolayı canlarından olmuşlardır. O katliam dolu yılları yaşamış ve görgü tanığı olan Gevaş-Dereağzı köyünden Salih DEĞİRMENCİ oğlu, yaşanan o yıllara ait bildiklerini ve duyduklarını şöyle anlatmıştır.

"Kimisi ağır hastalarını, kimisi anne ve babasını götürmek için, binek hayvanı veya aracı olmadığından, köyde bırakmış, hatta kimi anneler ise, 1-2 yaşındaki çocuklarını yanlarında götürmelerine rağmen, onları dağ başında, ıssız yerlerde bırakmak zorunda kalmışlardır. Ermenilerin; silahlarınızı teslim ettiğiniz takdirde, size zarar vermeyeceğiz sözlerine inanarak, köylerini terk etmeyerek kalan halk da, ağaçlara bağlanarak, acımasızca katledilmişlerdir."

*

"Van Gölü kan gölü oldu ve askerler uzun süre Van Gölü kıyılarından  masum Türk insanının cesetlerini toplayıp gömdüler." ... "Bu gün dahi ne Türk, ne de Batı Dünyası, Van ili ve çevresindeki 509.707 Müslüman’dan sadece  1500 kadın ve çocuğun kaldığını bilmiyorlar. Van’ı ele geçiren Ermeniler bütün Türk mahallelerini yaktılar.  Şehirde kalanları ve yollarda yakaladıkları kişilerin yaşlarına bakmadan toptan kitle halinde katlettiler.  Bundan maksatları, Van’daki Türklerden bir iz bırakmamak ve bölgede sayısal üstünlük sağlamak istemeleriydi."

ERMENİLER’İN “VAN” KATLİAMI (17 Mayıs 1915)

Van Türk Katliamı

*

"50 Türk Anası tecavüz edilmek üzere Akdamar adasına götürülürken Ermeni çeteciler tarafından, kendilerini Van Gölüne atmışlar ve boğularak ölmüşlerdir. Benim teklifim, bu anaların isimleri elimizde var, Akdamar Adası'na bir Anıt dikelim ve bu 50 Asil Türk Kadınının adlarını oraya yazalım. Van şehri Ermeni çeteciler tarafından yok edilmiştir. Bu anlamda TBMM, Gaziantep ve Kahramanmaraş gibi, Van şehrine de bir isim vermeli ve bu isim "Şehit Van" olmalıdır ki, tarihsel bilincimizde Van'a ne yapıldığını tekrar ve tekrar hatırlayalım."

* Doğu Anadolu'nun Türklüğü *

Türklerin Havzaya ilk gelişleri binlerce yıl öncesine dayanır.

Ermeniler gelmeden önce Doğu Anadolu'nun Subar, Kimmer, İskit/Saka Türklerine kadar inen bir tarihi vardır.

"Selçuklular Van Gölü havzasına geldiklerinde bölgede yaşayan Ermeni ve Gürcü nüfus oldukça zayıflamış durumdadır. Gürcüler Kafkasya'ya çekilmiş, Ermenilerse Doğu Roma tarafından imparatorluğun çeşitli yerlerine dağıtılmış ve nüfusları azaltılmıştır.

Rum nüfus ise şehir merkezlerinde toplanmıştır.

Bu nüfus azlığı da Selçukluların bu bölgeye rahatça yerleşmesine imkan sağlamıştır."

Van Gölü Havzasında Selçuklu İzleri, Belgesel 3.bölüm

"Ermeni krallarının gerek Gürcülerin de, yok olduğunu, bu dönemde zayıfladığını, çoğunun yok edildiğini görüyoruz.

THE POPULATION OF THE OTTOMAN ARMENIANS / PDF

by Prof.Dr.Justin McCarthy

"There were 1,465 million Armenians in Ottoman Anatolia in 1912, before the wars began. (This does not include the 28,000 Armenian residents of Southern Haleb Province, which became part of Syria after the world war nor the Armenians of İstanbul Province and Ottoman Europe, who were neither killed nor deported during World War I, although some were conscripted.) At wars' end, 881,000 remained alive, a loss of 584,000, or 41%.21 Most of these were victims of the war fought between the Muslims and Armenians between 1915 and 1920, directly or indirectly through starvation and disease. To put the Armenian loss into perspective, it should be noted that the Muslims of the war zone suffered equally horrific loss: The Muslim population of the Van Province decreased by 62%, that of Bitlis by 42%, that of Erzurum by 31%. Not coincidentally, these were the provinces of greatest conflict between Ottoman and Russian armies and between Muslim and Armenian civilians. The massive mortality in Anatolia was the product of total war in which no quarter was given, as well as years in which no crops were harvested and disease ravaged populations already ravaged by hunger. All shared starvation and disease; each side killed the other mercilessly. It is no wonder that death tolls were so high. Those who elevate the mortality of one group or ignore the mortality of another mistake the lesson of the times, which is not of persecutors and the oppressed, but of general inhumanity."

Bahsedegeldiğimiz bu soykırımla ilgili tüm vahşet tabloları, Başbakanlık Devlet Arşivleri Genel Müdürlüğü, Osmanlı Arşivi Daire Başkanlığı'nın verileriyle, rahmetli dostum Mehmet Hocaoğlu' nun eserinden alınmıştır. Arşivdeki belgeler, ilim adamlarının doğruluğundan şüphe etmediği bilgilerdir. Bayburt' lu olması sebebiyle, birçok yakını Ermeniler tarafından şehit edilen Mehmet Hocaoğlu da arşivdeki vesikalara istinad etmektedir. Hatta 1976'da kitap haline gelmeden, bir kısmı, Genel Yayın Müdürü olarak görev yaptığım Bizim Anadolu Gazetesi' nde yayınlanan bu son derece kıymetli eserin arşivde yazıldığını bile söyleyebiliriz. Çünkü rahmetli dostum, her sabah gazetede "Çok şekerli açık çayını" içtikten sonra, Gülhane'deki eski arşiv binasına gider, akşam üzeri ile ertesi günün yazılarını getirip teslim ederdi. Hatta o'nun 1973- 1974 yıllarında yayınladığı belgelere. Devlet Arşivleri Genel Müdürlüğünün 2001 yılında neşrettiği kitaplarda aynen rastlamak mümkündür. 


Bu bilgileri, tüyler ürperten adam öldürme usullerini buraya naklettiğim için vermek ihtiyacını duydum. Bu gibi insanın inananası gelmeyen, ancak Ermeninin yapabileceği denaetlerden bir kısmı da Genelkunnay Askeri Tarih ve Stratejik Etüdler Başkanlığı tarafından yayınlanan Askeri Tarih Belgeleri Dergisi' nin muhtelif sayılarında yeralmıştır.

Ermeniler, tandırda pişirdikleri iki çocuğun etini babasına ve anasına zorla yedirmek istemiş, ana-baba bu vahşi talebi reddedince öldürülmüş, nene Nezo Hatun da aklını kaybetmiştir.


Kaydetmek isteriz ki, tüyler ürpeten bu vahşi cinayetlerin failleri Meclis-i Mebusan üyesi Pastırmacıyan'la Meclis-i Mebussan üyesi Papazyan'ın buyruğu altındadırlar !


Talat Paşa hatıralarında bu çarpıcı gerçeğin sonradan öğrenildiğini yazar.

...

Erzincan'ı kurtaran birlik komutanı 16 Şubat 1918'de Osmanlı Orduları Başkomutanlık Vekaleti'ne gönderdiği raporda "Çardaklı Boğazı'ndan Erzincan'a kadar bütün köylerin bir tek kulübe sağlam kalmamak kaydıyla yakıldığı" belirtildikten sonra, Ermenilerin irtikap ettikleri vahşet şöyle anlatılmaktadır:


. . . Üç günden beri Ermeniler tarafından öldürülüp, meydanda kalan İslam cenazeleri toplattırılmaktadır. Şehit edilen bu günahsız ve masum halk arasında memeden kesilmemiş çocuklar, 90 yaşındaki ihtiyarlar, parçalanmış kadınlar vardır! . . .


Koca bir birliğin üç günden beri şehit cenazesi toplamakla oluşu bize bu Ermeni soykırımının boyutları hakkında fikir vermektedir.

Mass Graves of an Alleged Genocide

Armenians allege a genocide dated back to 1915, where a mere one and a half million Armenian were exterminated by the Ottoman Empire, during relocation which took part on mid May to early November in the year 1915.


The alleged extermination period is only 155 days and the total amount of the victims alleged to be one and a half million.


This means every single day 10 thousand Armenians were shot to death, killed, hanged or exterminated or etc.


Human corpse, stacked on top of each other, 3 bodies occupies a volume of one cubic meter. To bury ten thousand corpses in a mass grave would need a pit in the volume of 3 thousand and 333 cubic meters for corpses and a further 3 thousand and 333 cubic meters to cover them with earth for blanketing.


Accordingly a total of 6 thousand and 666 cubic meters needed to be dug every single day from May 1915 to November 1915.


No excavators, dozers, loaders, JCB’s, lorries, tucks or trench diggers were available at the beginning of the Twentieth century, not even a single car was available in the Eastern Anatolia region during those years.


A man power definitely needed  to dig everyday a pit in the volume of 6 thousand and 666 cubic meters or approximately an area in the size of a football field to be dug 2 meters in depth. Every single day an area in the size of a football field needed to be excavated  in 2 meters depth, the corpses laid in and later covered with soil again.


A healthy and young man can excavate only around half cubic meter of a pit using digging tools like a pickax and shovel in one hour working nonstop with a normal effort and a pace. If it is in the size of a football field, starting to dig from the center and dispose the excavated soil to any place outside of the football field, the time needed to excavate half a cubic meter increases to 60 minutes in average.


This means every day a 6 thousand and 666 hours needed to excavate a mass grave and to dispose the soil than a further approximately 3 thousand hours to cover the laid corpses, totaling almost 10 thousand hours of work every day for a period of 5 months, non stop.


Assuming a 6 hours productive work by a healthy man, 1 thousand and 7 hundred man needed every day to dig the pit, lay the corpses and cover them, subject if they can non stop work for 155 days. Normally a job rotation would be needed to proceed in the same pace every day which would increase the amount of people employed to around 2 thousand and 5 hundred.


Of course some guards from the Ottoman army  would also be needed to keep the order and prohibit escapes. This means food for 10 thousand captives and  3 thousand employees, or soldiers every single day, if not the total of the captured Armenians were more than 10 thousand.


I never found a record in the ottoman archives delivery of food, water, tents and other necessary goods to a group people employed to dig mass graves in Eastern Anatolia for 155 days.


After the alleged extermination there should be 150 mass graves in the different locations of Eastern Anatolia in the size of a football field.

I never managed to find these mass graves going through the Ottoman Archives. Never mind 150 of them, till today no body managed to find a single mass grave.


Where are those exterminated Armeian bodies?.

In Bosnia 8 thousand Bosnians were shot to death and their grave yards shifted for 3 times consecutively in order to wipe out the traces but still traced and found.


Why no body couldn’t locate any one of these 150 mass graves?


I also could not find any record of confession of those 3 thousand employees or their backbiting or remorse of any kind. At least one of them should stand up later on say that “We killed Armenians and buried them to this very spot” pointing the mass grave. But these never happened.


Where are the mass graves of the 1.5 million murdered Armenians???



Prof.Dr.Ata ATUN 
(his own web)

"The Ottomans did, in fact, later remove some one million Armenians from behind their military line, and of course, the guerrilla attacks stopped. The proof is that there were more than one million Armenian refugees yet Armenians today murmur and whimper that the horrible Muslim Turks massacred 1.5 million of their Christian forefathers in 1915. This is as massive of a tall tale as that told by the Armenian high priest’s claim of massacre.

The basic question is how could the Turks have murdered a half million more Armenians than who actually lived in eastern Turkey at the time? How can a million Armenians have been refugees and also been murdered at the same time? The Armenian tall tale of 1.5 million of their people being massacred is absurd and the historical evidence proves that the Armenians are not truth tellers! Historical evidence proves that it was the Armenian Christians who massacred far more Muslims in their selfish greed of wanting something for nothing than there were Armenians killed. Perhaps the Armenians have invented their very own system of “new math” that only they use and understand to fleece and deceive the Christian world!

What would have been the United States government’s response had it been subjected to such treason? Based upon the U.S. Army actions in the Civil War, the Indian Wars, and the War of the Philippines — the US government would have acted much like the Ottoman government. The Armenian guerrillas, who didn’t fight in Russian uniforms, as well as the Armenian citizens who supported and helped them, would have been treated as “highway robbers or pirates” just as Native Americans and Filipinos were treated. This is how the American army treated Native Americans and Filipinos — not to mention its treatment of Japanese Americans starting in 1942 during the 5 years of World War II.

Clearly today, neither a single United States state nor the United States Congress has any business or any right to pass meaningless resolutions attacking American’s friend and partner, Turkey. To back and support the bogus Armenian “genocide industry” is to approve of Armenian treason in 1915 as well as approving its acts of terrorism today on its neighbor Azerbaijan.

Consider this fact situation: Mexico attacks the United States and makes steady progress toward Washington, D.C. Native Americans support Mexico and wage hit and run attacks behind the American troops and disrupt United States military supply lines. Does any American really think that the US government would stand back and permit Native Americans to run wild and create problems for the army? Certainly not! Would any American stand back and permit some European country to claim we had committed a genocide when we removed Native Americans from behind our army when they were doing major harm to our soldiers’ defense of the United States of America. Certainly not!

Neither the United States government nor any individual state within the United States has any business sticking its nose into a sovereign nation’s effort to defend its lands. How can any U.S. state or the national government make a judgment call about a disputed action that took place more than 6,000 miles away more than 85 years ago? There is no real American interest to back and support Armenian treason and terrorism. To take sides unfairly, as some 26 U.S. states have done, is to give the Muslim world a good reason to hate Americans.

The sad fact of the matter is the politicians of the United States are taking the word of a gang of Armenian thugs just because they “claim” to be fellow Christians who were unjustly attacked by terrible Muslims. The Armenians are not truth tellers and Americans should learn truth for themselves before giving this unholy people billions of their dollars."

ERMENİ ÇETELERİ 519 BİN TÜRK’Ü KATLETTİ
18.04.2015 / Ermeni Sorunu

Atatürk Üniversitesi Türk-Ermeni İlişkileri Araştırma Merkezi Müdürü Prof. Dr. Erol Kürkçüoğlu, 1986 yılından bu yana yürüttükleri kazı ve arşiv çalışmalarıyla asıl katliama uğrayanların Müslüman Türkler olduğunu belgeleriyle ortaya koyduklarını söyledi. Kürkçüoğlu yaptığı açıklamada, Ermeni sorununun sadece Türk dünyasının bir sorunu olmadığını, Ortadoğu ve Kafkasya’da çıkar ve emelleri olan emperyalist devletlerin hepsini birden ilgilendiren milletlerarası bir problem olduğunu savundu. Ermeniler tarafından yapılan katliamlar nedeniyle Doğu ve Güneydoğu Anadolu Bölgesi’nde çok büyük Müslüman kayıplar olduğunu anlatan Kürkçüoğlu,öldürülenlerin sivil halktan olduğunun altını çizdi. Prof. Dr. Kürkçüoğlu,

“Erzurum’da 50 bin, Van’da 45 bin, Kars’ta 17 bin, Iğdır’da 15 bin, Erzincan’da 13 bin, Diyarbakır’da 12 bin, Muş’ta 10 bin olmak üzere bölgede toplam 519 bin sivil, Ermeni çeteleri tarafından katledilmiş. Bilhassa Birinci Dünya Savaşı’nda Rusların Bolşevik ihtilaliyle bu bölgeden çekilip ülkelerine dönmeleri neticesinde bu bölgede Ermeni çeteleri, gönüllü Ermeni birlikleri ve bunların başında komutanları var. Ermenilerin o dönemde yaptığı katliamları herkes çok iyi biliyor” diye konuştu. Erzurum Rus İkinci Topçu Alayı Komutanı Yarbay Twerdo Khlebov’un, bölgede Ermeni çetelerinin Müslüman ahaliye yönelik katliamları olduğunu ifade eden telgraflarının bulunduğunu vurgulayan Kürkçüoğlu, kazı çalışmalarında Doğu ve Güneydoğu Anadolu’da 185 toplu mezar tespit ettiklerini söyledi.

Turkish Genocide and not Armenian!

AN OVERALL ASSESSMENT OF MASSACRES BY ARMENIANS

The committees such as "Kara Hac / Black Cross", "Armenakan" and "Vatan Koruyuculari / Land Protectors " in Anatolia, " Hinchak " in Geneva, "Tasnak" in Tiblisi, were founded by the Armenians. Their targets were lands in the Eastern Anatolia and the union of the Ottoman Armenians.


The Armenian committees were provoked for this purpose, first they rioted in 1890 in Erzurum, afterwards they organized the Kumkapi demonstration, Kayseri, Yozgat, Corum and Merzifon events, Sasun revolt, Bab-i Ali / Sublime Porte demonstration, Zeytun and Van revolts, The raid of Osmanli Bankasi / Ottoman Bank, assassination trial to Sultan Abdülhamit, and Adana revolt in 1909. Due to the Armenian oppressions, 100 Turks in Zeytun in 1914, 3.000 Turks in Van events in 1915, and 20.000 Turks lost their lives 1914 — 1915, in Mus Events.


Armenians gave the greatest harm to the Turkish people, by the massacring them during the First World War. In this period, the Armenians spied for the Russians, they fled from their military service, by not obeying the mobilisation orders, and those Armenians who were taken under arms joining onto the Russian Army, with their arms, and they thus committed collectively the guilt of being “ treacherous to the land “. The Armenian bands that started to attack the Turkish Army and these bands have given great harm to the civilian people, as well. For example, the whole population of the Zeve village of the Van province massacred by the Armenian people without discriminating if they were women, children, or the old.

TURKISH MASSACRED IN CAVUSOGLU BARNYARD

Prof. Dr. Metin Ozbek, who was conducting observations in the region, tells the event as follows:

I brought some human skeletons found coincidentally during the construction of a house in Cavusoglu Samanligi, and taken to the laboratuary at Hacettepe University in order to examine it. As it is known, Anthropology enables the scientists to know the age and causes of death, sex, ailments, and some other facts by means of skeletons with the aid of advanced techniques and methods. Above all it is possible to determine the which race it belongs to through the examination of a skull. It was impossible to match the skulls with the bones of the body where, the remains of the skeletons we found. Thus, we counted the individual skeletons according to the amount of skulls and we numbered each.


In other words each individual skeleton had a different anthropological identity. We found out that there were five females and four males among the remains. The most prominent criterion that indicates the age of death is “symohysin pubiswhich” is a part of Pelvis. This part was preserved in seven of the individual skeletons we worked on. We demonstrated the age range of skeletons found in Cavusoglu Samanligi as follows.

1. Female (P6)........17-18 age

2. Male (P7)...........17-18 age

3. Female (P4)........18-19 age

4. Female (P3)........27-30 age

5. Male (P2)...........35-40 age

6. Female (P1)........39-44 age

7. Male(P5)............50 age (approximately)

8. Chid (D.1)..........15 age (approximately)

There was a striking common characteristics of the skeletons examined; there were injuries on the skulls which resulted from crushes with cutting tools. Accordingly, the common cause of death was subjection to severe torture.


I. Marks of Cuts on the Skulls:
Nr.1) Female: There are two clefts on the skull caused by sharp-edged instruments. One of them is on the right parietal and it is 42 mm. Long. The second one is also on the right parietal and it is 36 mm. long. Presumably her instant death resulted from the blows directed towards the head.


Nr.2) Female:  We identified the traces of four cuts on the skull. The first one is on the first parietal and it is 95 mm. long. The sharp edged instrument cut through the skull and reached the brain. The second cleft is on both parietals. The cutting tool-most probably an axe hit the Pemals on the head and split the skull open. Such an act is enough to cause instant death. The third stroke left a mark on the left parietal and is 12 mm. to the back of the first cleft. This scar is 48 mm. long and 19 mm wide and looks like a shuttle. The fourth trace is right at the back of the third and is in the same direction. Half of it is on the occipital bone.


Nr.3) Male: He is one of the group having the greatest number of clefts on the skull. The sharp edged tool hit its mark on the left ear and severed to mastoid totally. This blow slightly abraded the occipital bone as well. The second blow hit the left eye and left a deep mark on the frontal. The third mark which is 75 mm. long is on the left parietal. The sharp-edged instrument which entered the brain caused a long cleft between the left tuber parietal and sutura lamb doidalis. The power of the blow formed some other cracks in the same area. The fourth blow right on top of the head cut the sagittal suture. This cleft is 48 mm. long. The fifth blow is in horizontal plane and severed the right parietal in parts close to the sagittal suture. The instrument hit on the left zygomatic bone. In this area it cut the bone and some parts of the superior maxillary. This person was also burned in fires. 


Nr 4) Male:  There are marks of three blows directed towards the brain. The first one is a vertical cleft which is 37 mm long. The second horizontal one is along the parietal and frontal. It is 92 mm. long. The third blow was also on the left parietal and caused a cleft which is 49 mm long and 21 mm wide. The sharp-edged tool severed the tabule externa. These blows resulted in an instant death. Like the person, this one was also burned after death.


Nr.5) Female: We discovered four cutting marks on the skull. The first one on the frontal is 28 mm. long and not very deep. The second one is at the top part, along both sides of the parietal and it is 77 mm long. This cleft is deep enough to be the sign demonstrating her instant death. The third blow on the right ear was also fatal. It severed the mastoid totally and cut the inferior maxillary partly. The fourth mark is on the front part of the right upper jaw.


Nr.6) Male: An adult which has four clefts on the head. The first one on the left parietal is quite deep. It is 57 mm. long and 14 mm. wide. The cutting tool entered the brain as well. On the side of the sagittal suture there is a 23 mm long crevice. The second one is on the saggittal suture. It is 29 mm. long and 28 mm wide. This crevice is intersected by other two clefts. The horizontal one ise 43 mm. and the oblique one is 42 mm. The third cleft is also oblique. It is on the right parietal, a few mm. to the front of the parietal cavity. The foruth mark is made by a sharp pointed instrument. It is caused by a blow struck on the head close to the sagittal suture. The individual was probably tortured severely.


Nr.7) Male: There are signs of five hard blows. The first one is in the area of the left auditory canal. The sharp-edged instrument severed the mastoid totally. It even severed the zygomatic partly. There were two blows stuck on the left ear one after the other. They probably caused death right at that moment. The second mark is closer to the lambda suture on the right parietal. This cleft is partly on the horizontal plane and it is 41 mm long. The third crevice is between the two lambda suture on the occipital. It is 44 mm. long. The fourth one is quite deep and 48 mm. long. It is situated on the procenus occipital externa. The fifth crevice is right on the back of the skull. It is 53 mm. long.


Nr.8) Female: The skeleton belongs to a girl who died at about the age of fifteen. There are three cutting marks on the skull. The first crevice is deep and reaches the brain area. It is on the right parietal and 50 mm. long. The second one is situated in a vertical position and 20 mm. long The third one is right at the back part. This teenager was burnt in fire after being killed.


Nr.9) Female: She died at about the age 17 or 19. There are no signs of blows on the preserved bones of the skull. The main parts of the occipital were either broken or lost. It is impossible to state the reasons of death.



II. Identification of race through skeletons:


It is possible to identify race by measurement, index, and morphological observation of the skulls. However there are variations in each group of race. By means of Anthropometric techniques we examined the skeletons found in Cavusoglu Samanligi. We calculated the cephalic index which is the most prominent criteria in race studies. We took the measurement of the eight skulls. The indexes varied between 76 and 89. This result showed that four are mesocaphalic and the others are brachycephalic. We never came across with dolchocephalic group. In Anatolia Alpina race which includes both mesocephalic and brachycephalic ones, all the skeletons belonged to Alpine group to which Anatolian Turks belong. The skeleton of the female whose death age is between 17 and 19 does not belong to this group. It is in the east variation of the Dinaric race which is called Armenoid.
While evaluating the heights we used the regression equations of Trotter and Gleser. Where the three female skeletons are concerned, the results are 52.9 cm. 159.2 cm and 168.2 cm. The results related with the three men are 170.1, 172.4 and 173.5 cm.


Along with the skeltons, we also found one (shirt) button, a sharp-edged iron piece and a part of an upper jaw. According to Prof.Dr.Ilber Uzel from the Dept. of Dentistry at Gülhane Medicine Academy, the fragment of the upper total Prothesis belong to the right posterior. The prosthesis is rubber and the teeth are porcelain. Prostheses were used by the members of higher classes in 1900 s. Acatin traces (on the prosthesis) suggest the possibility of a Male owner. This type of porcelain was used between the years of 1915-1925 and produced by an American firm known as SSN. The epoch, there skeletons belong to is thus proved in this way as well.



III. Marks on the long bones:


Despite a large number of cutting marks on the skulls, there are very few cuts on the other bones of the skeletons. Virtually, this is because of the fact that in fatal attempts the most appropriate part of the body is the head since it is vulnerable.

1.There are three clefts on the diaphysis of the humerus of an adult. This depicts that signs of the adult was burned.

2.On the front side of the diaphysis of the right tibia of a women there is a deep cutting mark.

3.There is a deep cutting mark in the lower parts of the right tibia of a male.



IV. General Conclusion and Evaluation:


The skeletons which were coincidentally found in Cavusoglu Samanligi (Ercis) were examined thoroughly in terms of antrophological methods. It is concluded that these skeletons belong to mostly young people who were deliberately killed and some of them were burned. The skulls demonstrated that these skeletons belong to people from the Alpin race-type. Where Anatolia is concerned, they most probably belong to Turks. The scientific discoveries prove that these people were subjected to severe torture and killed brutally. These facts confirm the statements of the witnesses who live in the same area today. Thus the part of history related to Armenians has to be rewritten because the people who were massacred violently were not the Armenians but the Turks.

THE REPORT ON EXCAVATION OF THE MASS-GRAVES IN KARS - SUBATAN

One of the excavations of the mass-graves aiming to explore the events happened in Eastern Anatolia betweeen 1915 and 1918 has been done in Kars-Subatan. The opening of the mass-graves in Subatan village which is situated near Ani Örenyeri, on the boarders of Turkey-Russia, 28 kilometres in the east of Kars was carried out on Governor of Kars, S.Filtekin, the Mayor of Kars, Prof.Dr.Hursit Ertugrul, the president of Atatürk University, Prof.Dr.Ahmet Cakir, the dean of Science and Literature Faculty of the same university and Prof.Dr.Enver Konukcu, Prof.Dr.Azmi Süslü from Ankara University, Prof.Dr.Metin Özbek from Hacettepe University, Prof.Dr.Fahrettin Kirzioglu From Gazi University, Prof.Dr.Metin Tuncel from Istanbul University, Assoc.Prof.Dr.Abdüsselam Ulucam from 100.Yil University and Ali Ercan, the director of Kars museum.


The excavations in Subatan village which has about 20-30 houses of Moslem population today were carried out in accordance with the oral statements of 120 year old Fariz Öztürk and 95 year old Duraga Öztürk who witnessed the events. They were conducted in a 8x10 meter hole which was opened in the barn in Köseogullari district. The first works were started in A1 hole within the field divided into four separate 4-5 meter areas. The excavation which had been realized in a wide surface first was narrowed down to the inner crosspoint of A1 and B1 holes After having removed the 40 centimeter earth, the first skeletons were found. It was observed that most of these skeletons which were found with some personal belongings belong to children between the age groups of 0-1.


Another group of skeletons which was found in 80 centimeters depth in A1 hole displayed quite a shocking scene. These skeletons which were located in the north-south direction must belong to a mother and her daughter. The woman fell onto her right side and embraced the child with her left arm. The two stroke marks found on the head of the woman prove that they were killed with an axe or some other sharp instrument. The first stroke mark is not as deep as the second one. Both the woman and the child were buried in their clothes.


Another skeleton group was found in the south corner of A1 hole. Only a few of these could be analyzed. As these analyses show, bodies were thrown haphazardly. The rest of the findings were after of a belt, a pair of ear-rings, a number of colored beads of a small necklace; decayed wooden beams and were given to Kars Museum to be displayed in the newly opened Genocide Section for exhibition.


According to the oral statements of the witnesses, Fariz Öztürk and Duraga Öztürk whose statements are supported by the archive documents, the massacre committed by Armenians happened in the following way: The Tashnak-Armenian guerrillas who retreated from Kars and Sarikamis attacked Subatan village where Turkish, Armenian and Greek people lived together were captured wildly without feeling pity. According to the photographs in the archives and findings of the excavations, the women, children and old men who had been killed with axes and bayonets were left in the streets. The archive documents show that a total of 570 people were murdered in the village. After the withdrawal of Armenians, Turkish soldiers came to the district. The soldiers with the help of survivors collected the corpses, which were decayed and eaten by dogs, to an area and put them in a barn. Due to the hard conditions of that time and lack of time, the bodies were buried together. Some other mass-graves were formed by collapsing the roofs of barns. The archive documents and statements of witnesses show that in three separate mass-graves in Subatan, there are a numbers of martyrs buried. In the barn in Köseogullari district , more than 180, in Tiptip street more than 25 and in the barn which is located in the south of the village mosque more than 350 bodies are buried.

THE EXCAVATION OF VAN - ZEVE MASS-GRAVE

Armenian Massacres in Van - Interview with Witnesses

In the excavations that were started on April 4th 1990 in the cemetery for martyrs near Zeve which is in the vicinity of Citören Village that is located at 18 km. north-west of Van province, in accordance with oral statements of the eyewitness "Ibrahim Sargin" who witnessed the event, after removal of 30-40 cm thick earth, massacred human skeletons were found. It was observed that some of the skulls were broken, some were crushed and some were cracked and burnt. The most important findings of the excavations were poniard (khanjars) and daggers, a lot of cartridges, pieces of silk clothes, necklaces with bead of Sultan Reshad's monogram, amulets covered with wax, copper coins and glass buttons.


When these findings are combined with the statements of the eyewitness, the following information are obtained: The Armenian guerrillas who entered the district under Russian support in 1915 started attacking the villages, killing innocent Turkish and Moslem people. The Armenian guerillas brought into Zeve village about 2000-2500 people who were gathered by force from eight villages in the district and were put in houses and barns. They first tortured these people with piercing and cutting tools and then opened fire at them. Then, they set all houses on fire. Materials found in the excavation have been exhibited at " Massacre Section" in Van Museum.

THE EXCAVATION THE MASS-GRAVE IN ERZURUM-DUMLU-YESILYAYLA VILLAGE

The excavation of the mass-grave in Erzurum - Yesilyayla Village, to which even foreign press was attended, was carried out on October 7th 1988.

Arkeolog Doc. Dr. Cevat Basaran


Anxiety;"They where also human, they have the right to live.
In Yesilyayla massacre which we learned from the memories of "Kazim Karabekir Pasa", old men, women and children who were gathered by force were put in a barn and opened fire at them. The tobacco boxes with crescent and star, pages of Koran, cartridges, pieces of a half-burned wooden post, some long pigtails of hair, pieces of silk dress and small dress buttons were found in the field of excavation. Approximately up to 100 of skeletons were excavated from the mass-grave. Materials found in the excavation have been exhibited in Erzurum museum.

EXCAVATION OF THE MASS-GRAVE IN IGDIR - OBA VILLAGE

Prof. Dr. Enver Konukcu is the first person who discovered that there were mass-graves which belonged to the Turks massacred by the Armenians in Oba Village of Igdir. This information was supported by the documents of archive. On March 1st 1986, in the excavation of the mass-grave, findings verifying the historical documents were obtained and the massacre of "Tandir Dami" told by Sakine Aksu who was one of the living eyewitnesses became even clearer.


At the excavation, the first hole of 6x8 meters was started in the inner part of the northern door and a closed "iron lock" was found. The second hole was dug in the central part of the room and approximately 90 human skeletons were found under an earth layer of one meter thick.


The stone base (floor) in the south of the Tandir which was situated in the middle of the room must have belonged to the only wooden post which had supported the earth-covered roof and the burnt pieces of that column were also found.


By combining these findings with the statement of the eyewitness, it is realised that the " Tandir Dami" massacre occured as follows: most of the unarmed civil people from Oba Village were gathered by force and subjected to torture and then they had been laid as face down and locked them in the room, and opened fire at them. And then the Armenian guerrillas set the "Tandir Dami" on fire by pouring kerosene into the chimney and the earth roof collapsed after burning of the wooden column. During the excavation, melted iron pieces, burnt wooden pieces, pieces of glass, bullets and skeletons and pieces of clothes were found. Thick burnt layer and ash layer on the wall and floor of the house showed that other evidences and proofs had been disappeared with the fire.

Doğu'da Türk Soykırımı

Hundreds more mass graves remain to be excavated in Erzincan, Ardahan, Erzurum, Iğdır, Van, Muş, Bitlis, Doğubayezid, Kağızman and elsewhere. There is documentary evidence of further mass graves in Erivan, Gümrü, Serdarabad, Afltarak, Talin and the like. The Armenians, not only killed Turks, but many others who opposed them around Karakilise, Delican and Gümrü. As we enter the 21st century, spurious charges of genocide are still continuing. Intellectuals are certainly aware of the myths that have been built up around Armenian history. The Armenians have to stop regarding every church and its environs as a part of Armenia.
