The Armenian genocide
Translations available in: English (original) | French | Spanish | Italian | German | Portuguese | Swedish | Russian | Dutch | Arabic

World War One gave the Young Turk government the cover and the excuse to carry out their plan. The plan was simple and its goal was clear. On April 24th 1915, commemorated worldwide by Armenians as Genocide Memorial Day, hundreds of Armenian leaders were murdered in Istantly after being summoned and gathered. The now leaderless Armenian people were to follow. Across the Ottoman Empire (with the exception of Constantinople, presumably due to a large foreign presence), the same events transfered from village to village, from province to province.
Now the villages and towns, with only women, children, and elderly left were systematically emptied. The remaining residents would be told to gather for a temporary relocation and to only bring what they could carry. The Armenians again obediently followed instructions and were "escorted" by Turkish Gendarmes in death marches.
The death marches led across Anatolia, and the purpose was clear. The Armenians were raped, starved, dehydrated, murdered, and kidnapped along the way. The Turkish Gendarmes either led these atrocities or turned a blind eye. Their eventual destination for resettlement was just as telling in revealing the Turkish governments goal: the Syrian Desert, Der Zor. Those who miraculously survived the march would arrive to this bleak desert only to be killed upon arrival or to somehow survive until a way to escape the empire was found. Usually those that survived and escaped received assistance from those who have come to be known as "good Turks," from foreign missionaries who recorded much of these events and from Arabs.

The holocaust is a form of genocide.
Translations available in: English (original) | French | Spanish | Italian | German | Portuguese | Swedish | Russian | Dutch | Arabic

The holocaust was ordered and organized by political leaders,carried out by thousands of their willing supporters, and allowed to happen by millions of people.
The scale of the crime is still hard to take in.To use a modern comparison, about three thousan d people were killed in the terrorist attacks in the United States on September 11,2001.Between June 1941 and March 1945,an average of four thousand european Jews were murdered eveyday.
These people were killed in a variety of ways.Some were left to starve,some to freeze to death. many worked to death in LABOR camps. More than one million shot and buried in mass graves. Several Million were gased to death in specially buit extermination camps.
The Jews were not the only victims of the Nazis.It is probable that the Nazis and their allies murdered at least five million other civilians before and during World War 2.their victims were killed for a variety of reasons:communists for their political opinions,homosexuals for their sexual orientation, people with mental disabilities for their supposed uselessness to the society, gypsies and slavs for their supposed racial inferiority,and Russians, Poles, and other eastern Europeans because they were supposedly in their way.
The death camps accounted for at least half of the victims of the Holocaust.
All in total the number of people killed by the nazis is More than 11 million civilians.

p.s. please write any opinios you may have.
Until next time thank you

Rwanda and Genocide
Translations available in: English (original) | French | Spanish | Italian | German | Portuguese | Swedish | Russian | Dutch | Arabic

The Rwandan Genocide was the systematic murder of Rwanda's Tutsi minority and the moderates of its Hutu majority, in 1994. This was both the bloodiest masacre of the Rwandan Civil War and one of the the worst genocide in the years of the 1990s.

?Questions?
Translations available in: English (original) | French | Spanish | Italian | German | Portuguese | Swedish | Russian | Dutch | Arabic

Do you think its right for groups of people to kill another group because of their ethnic background....or the colour of your skin?
Do you think its right to try to destroy a certain race of people?
Do you think its humane to kill hundreds of people everyday because of their religeon,or even kill them for belonging to a different group and a different name that they are called but they live in the same vountry as you come from the same country as you but called a different name? and stilll their the same as you?

Genocide
Translations available in: English (original) | French | Spanish | Italian | German | Portuguese | Swedish | Russian | Dutch | Arabic

My topic I'm doing for my public speaking is Genocide...
the only thing i Know about Genocide is...the deliberate and systematic destruction of an ethnic, racial, religious, or national group.
defines genocide as "any of the following acts committed with intent to destroy, a whole or a part of, a national, racial or religious group, as such as killing members of the group; causing serious bodily or mental harm to members of that group/nationality; deliberately acting on the group conditions of life, calculated to bring about its physical destruction of a whole or part; commanding severe measures intended to prevent births within the group; and forcidly transferring children of the group to another group."
