Go read a book. All of these are highly recommended and peer reviewed. So educate yourself before you open your mouth about "conspiracy lobbying"

>They are, lol

One was, so you assume they all are? And your source is... the Turkey subreddit?

>Exactly. Europeans are not really fond of us and they don’t want to be singled out about their history full of genocides, massacres and rapings.

Except most European nations have openly acknowledged and apologized for their crimes. And Germany was literally an ally during the First World War and was one of the firsts to recognize the Armenian genocide.

>American being american.

Not american, nice strawman.

Armenians did wage a war of independence against the Turks. These were obviously not the Armenians that were massacred.

Armenians in Anatolia have been harassed and assaulted and massacred before the Genocide of 1915. Sultan Abdul Hamid comes immediately to mind.

If you think that discussing Armenian independence is a reason to commit murder against Armenians, and you do so, then defense of one's self is only natural against such an atrocity. You would never blame a Turk for protecting oneself, would you?

The Genocide was perpetrated on the civilians of Eastern Anatolia. Not just villages that bordered Russia. We are talking about huge cities east of Ankara decimated to once and for all end the question of Armenian independence.

Jew in WWII were blamed for many, many things: Corrupting the government and people, controlling the flow of money, diluting the pureness of the German people. They were looked upon as sub-human and many experiments were done upon them to try and prove this.

As an aside, there is an excellent book by Vahakn Dadrian titled German Responsibility in the Armenian Genocide. After reading his first book The History of the Armenian Genocide, this would be a good follow-up read.

Also, there were many Jews from around the world that joined the various armies against the Axis powers specifically so that they could go and fight (and kill) Nazis.

There was the Warsaw Ghetto uprising. No German has ever blamed the Jews for trying to resist slaughter. Similarly, no Turk should ever confuse an Armenian defending him or herself against Turkish prejudice and violence.
