See some facts, you know nothing about Ottoman Empire


You guys been talking about this subject and i am a Turkish girl so let's see some facts not your stupid ideas: Ottoman Empire lived for 600 years with huge lands and clearly with so many nations. In 600 years these nations lived with peace I know that because I am a law student so we can see some trails' details and we can know whichlaw was applying to the other nations and you can be sure about that the rules are very fair even more fair than the law which is applying to the Turks. In 600 years non of these nations had claim something like genocide until the end of the great area so lets use your mind for just 2 minutes and see that the armenian people lived peace for 600 years with Ottoman Empire but why are they claiming this the answer is simple cause Ottoman was week at the end of this time and acctually armenian people betrayed to the Ottoman Empire, we gave them the best and they affected by the idea of having their own country in Ottoman Empire 's lands it is clear that this is a betrayel, if Ottoman Empire wanted to genocide then they would and you could not see any armenian person today cause the Empire had that power but we only gave them a home nothing but that, Empire was in z war and wanted them to be safe nothing but that, our people died in that war, enemies people died in that war and we gave them graves near to our died soldiers nothing but that. We had mercy even to our enemies, we lived with armenians for centuries and they stabbed us from the back, nothing but that. Open your mind, open your eyes and learn some history

Your history knowledge is as horrible as your Google translation... plus learn when to put a (.) within your sentences... it will look less tedious !

So Turkish law students never learn to type in paragraphs and to use punctuation marks? hahah

Please, you are gravely ignorant on this matter, I urge you to reach out to non-biased sources to read up on the state of the Ottoman Empire shortly before and during WW1. I do not blame you, you have grown up in a fascist country where you and most of the people you know in turkey have been basically abused mentally, taught falsehoods and forced chauvistic fascism in the turkish society. Very sad fact and it will only end badly in the country.

Also for your last notes on "they stabbed us from the back". You're actually, as a "law student", sitting their trying to tell us that because a group of a few thousand Armenians on the eastern regions sided with the russians, it was totally okay for the Turks to murder every single Armenian they could get their hands on? Introducing death squads to enter Armenian villages to rape and murder women, children and elders and then finally force the remaining Armenian people on a death march?

You should be ashamed of yourself.
