ARMENIAN - Erevangala500

apparently not older than four or five years, could be
orphans, begetted 1914, childen whose parents were
"slaughtered by Turks" AD 1915??
And: Who made money out o f these poor children? Who
let them work for one piaster a day in a caipet factory? A
Turk? Or an Annenian slave-owner?
The reason, why Alma Werfel was so moved when she
saw these poor children we explained already She had
lost three o f her four children and when the Werfels were
at Damascus she was already far beyond the age o f anoth­
er motherhood. Anyhow, she coud somehow substitute
her personal tragedy with the doubtless tragic story o f the
Armenians who were victims o f their own fanatic leaders.
The camp near Suez o f the Armenian combattans from
Musa Dagh; young, at best health, ready fo r the next
murderous attack. How said their president Boghos
Nubar 1919: "... les Armeniens des le debut de la guerre,
ont ete des belligerants de facto". De facto: they were a
war-leading nation since the beginning o f the war. This
and the other photographs are from the Musee d'histoire
contemporaine, Paris. They are absolutely authentic.
There is little difference between the Taliban o f today and
the A SA LA , the Dashnaks and all the other fanatics,
including the Nazis, who put their race or racism and
nationalism beyond any reasonable thought. And, again
beyond reasonable fact-finding until our days nobody
cares for the horrible fate o f the Turks and their children
who suffered much more than the Armenians under the
circum stances o f 1915 and later... the death-toll
Muslims:Annenians counts 3:1 in a civil war which was
instigated, again beyond any doubt, by the Armenian
fanatics.
