Genocidal intentions of Azeris

[Pedro Xaramillo]

I have an interesting amount of articles I came across, most of them showing (make that proving) that Pan Turkism was a very very important part of Azerbaijani politics as earl as the mid 19th to early 20th century

I have found a few historical accounts, some from Azeris themselves of that era calling the atrocities done to Armenians nothing short of utmost brutality with the aim to completely wipe out Armenians from the Caucusus and Anatolia, what do you guys think, I personally think what happened if you read all the articles is that Azerbaijan at least wholly or in part destroyed Armenians in their repsective areas and this constitutes further Genocide and should also be recognised as Genocide

We could DEFINITELY use this in CA bro. We have a page called Turkish Dreams right? Why not create a page called Azeri Dreams?

The way I have always looked at it is that in a way the Armenian Genocide never ended, the Azeri's took on from where the Turks left off.

Re: Genocidal intentions of Azeris

The government of Azerbaijan proclaimed in Baku about the annexation of the disputed territory and, on January 15, 1919, appointed Khosrov bek Sultanov, the "owner of vast tracts of Karabagh ... an ardent pan-Turkist, a friend of the Ittihadists of Constantinople, and a terror to all Armenians" [19], as governor-general of Karabagh. Britain (which had a small detachment of troops stationed in Shusha) agreed to Sultanov's appointment as a provisional governor, but insisted that a final decision on the territory's ownership should be decided only at a future Peace Conference.

Vahan Atanesyan says :

"The massacre of Armenians in Shushi in 1920 is nothing but a genocide, Chairman of the parliamentary Commission for Foreign Relations of Karabakh, Vahram Atanesyan, said at a press-conference today. He said the massacre was perpetrated by Azerbaijan with the support of the Turkish expeditionary corps. Atanesyan stressed that Karabakh has never been a part of Azerbaijan and was de facto independent at that moment, its status being recognized by Armenia, Georgia and Azerbaijan" [54].

Re: Genocidal intentions of Azeris

A sad but true story. This probably never got printed but it was on the radio last year I think. It shouldn't be suprising ya'll, the radio here in Armenia gives you more detailed and important news reports then the television or even newspapers at times.

What happened was the Azeri's tied an Armenian to a tree and then took a long two-man saw (forgot what they call those in English, lol) and cut him in half while the rest of the people stood around AND played music with Dhols, etc. if I heard correctly. Fact is they seemed happy. No one felt bad or something. THIS is the kinda hate we face ... this is the kind of racism that's still visible in this world !

Peace ya'll. May that Armenian's soul rest in peace.

Re: Genocidal intentions of Azeris

Damn thats bad bro, the thing is this stuff needs to be documented because the net and the US sponsored view on things is so rampantly pro Azerbaijan/Tataristan that they gloss over that stuff

Like Peter said, in many cases the Genocide continued towards Armenians from the Azeri side, I am uploading a report now done by an ethnic Azeri who in 1915 himself said he is appalled with his people and that their actions are nothing shorrt of brutality, in addition to saying that the Armenians NEVER DID ANYTHING TO PROVOKE SUCH ATTACKS (like the so called March massacre of Azeris in 1915)

There is a lot that DOESN'T even come out of Armenia/Azerbaijan/Turkey. For example, I VERY MUCH doubt you'll be able to read what I just told you anywhere on the net. All this info has to pile up somewhere and I think we already know where...

These people need to also be mentioned and talked about a lot. Many don't know about them either. That's about to change...

Re: Genocidal intentions of Azeris

This proves Genocide :

According to the description of Azerbaijan communist Musaev, «the ruthless destruction of defenceless women, children, old women, old men, etc has begun. Armenians were exposed to a mass slaughter (...). beautiful Armenian girls were raped, then shot. (...) At an order (...) Khosrov-bek Sultanov, pogroms proceeded for more than six days, houses in the Armenian part have been crushed, plundered and reduced all to ashes, everyone led away women to submit to the wishes of executioner musavatists. During these historically artful punishments Khosrov-bek Sultanov, pronouncing speeches, spoke to the Moslems, about holy war (jihad) and called to finally finish the Armenians of the city Shusha, not sparing women, children, etc.»[34]

Nadezhda Mandelstam wrote about Shusha in the 1920s: "...in this town, which formerly of course was healthy and with every amenity, the picture of catastrophe and massacres was terribly visual... They say after the massacres all the wells were full of dead bodies. ...We didn't see anyone in the streets on the mountain. Only at downtown- in the market-square there were a lot of people, but there wasn't any Armenian among them, all were Muslims".[35]
