you do not have to believe me. THis was told by my great grand dad. He witnessed these in first hand. I do not remember reading any Turkish resources telling this. It is entirely upto you believing or not believing what my Great grand dad told. We are not talking about a few deaths, hundreds and hundreds, in some cases they used chemical materials or poison their water/food.
I am not telling to justify deportations, this just shows there was connections between Anatolian Armenians and Russians. You can justify this becuase it was war time, and those Armenians in the army feared their lives etc etc. THis could be the case, I am not disputing it. As I said perceptions played a great role in escalation of those events.
