There are 2 sad takeaways from this book. To explain - it is likely impossible to know the whole truth of the Armenian genocide; particularly when told by someone named Bogosian.

But that hardly alters the big picture. First, I finally understood the origins, Operation Nemesis: The Assassination Plot That Avenged the Armenian Genocide and consequences of the Armenian genocide. For a starter, being a non historian and having not done much of a homework of the era and the the region, he was mixing facts with fiction anyway he felt comfortable to s I finished reading the excellent book "The fall of the Ottomans" by Eugene Rogan. He also puts the Armenian genocide in its historical context, pointing out similar events on the part of Germans in Namibia, the US in North America. Armenian Revolutionary Federation. Operation Nemesis: The Assassination Plot That Avenged the Armenian Genocideafter the Armistice of MudrosTurkish Courts-Martials were convened in Constantinople, during which some of the principal perpetrators of the Armenian Genocide were convicted and sentenced to death. Retrieved While he clearly sees the Genocide as an indisputably evil and horrific event, he is not an exceptionalist, on the contrary he is trying to show its context in the religious, political, and ethnic attitudes of its day. That is not to say that there is any sense to the ongoing killing and terror in that part of the world. Can there ever really be justice for a crime as terrible as genocide? I liked how all the details are backed with biographical notes at the end of the book, which I personally consider as further resources for reading more into those dark times. Operation Nemesis was closed down afterbut its example has lingered, often among people so removed in time from the original events that they have been operating in the neverland of collective memory. Armenian Genocide. I tried to reach out beyond that and educate myself. A great uncle of mine, a palace architect to the sultan, was already serving as an Ottoman engineer officer when the mass murders — unbeknownst to him — began. The truth is that the ARF cobbled together a team to take out the young Turks. Bogosian believes that Nemesis was more than just revenge.

  • Armenian Terrorism: a Reappraisal
    Gunter 5/13/09 6:51 PM Page 109 The Journal of Conflict Studies Armenian Terrorism: A Reappraisal by Michael M. Gunter ABSTRACT This article reappraises the strategic impact of Armenian terrorism in the twentieth century. From 1973 to 1985, Armenian terrorists earned a deadly and infamous international reputation by murdering Turkish diplomats or members of their families, along with many other non-involved third parties killed in the crossfire, during 188 terrorist operations worldwide. By the mid-1980s, however, Armenian terrorists had fallen into mindless but deadly internal fighting that resulted in the deaths of several of their leading mem- bers. Yet even with the benefit of 20 years of hindsight, it remains dif- ficult to assess definitively the strategic influence exerted by Armenian terrorism. It was an excellent example of how one person’s terrorist can be viewed by some as another’s freedom fighter. In seek- ing revenge for past perceived wrongs and in pursuit of the goal of an independent state, Armenian terrorism also shared common characteristics with such other ethnic-based terrorist movements as the Irish and Palestinians. Although by practically all conventional standards of measurement its ultimate strategic impact was virtually nil, some might still argue that Armenian terrorism did help preserve the memory of what many call the twentieth-century’s first or forgot- ten genocide. INTRODUCTION Tacitly supported by many Armenians and others throughout the world as legitimate revenge for what most observers viewed as genocide1 in the First World War, Armenian terrorism in the twentieth century was an excellent exam- ple of how one person’s terrorist can be viewed by some as another’s freedom fighter.

  • The Armenian Massacre and Its Avengers the Ramifications of the Assassination of Talaat Pasha in Berlin by Rolf Hosfeld
    IP – Transatlantic Edition The Armenian Massacre and Its Avengers The ramifications of the assassination of Talaat Pasha in Berlin by Rolf Hosfeld The 1921 trial in Berlin of Mehmet Talaat’s Armenian assassin, Sogho- mon Tehlirian, sent reverberations around the world. Two young law stu- dents at the time would go on, respectively, to become the assistant prose- cutor at the Nuremberg War Crimes Tribunal and to give a name to the wholesale Nazi murders–“genocide.” The trigger to Raphael Lemkin’s de- velopment of the legal concept of genocide was the Armenian massacre. On the ides of March in 1921 the last Grand Vizier of the Ottoman Empire was assassinated in the center of Berlin by an Armenian revolutionary. Mehmet Talaat had fled to the German capital before the World War I Al- lies occupied Constantinople in 1918 and was living there under a pseud- onym. He had had a meteoric rise after the revolution against Sultan Abdul Hamid II in 1908, and especially after the coup of the Young Turks in 1913, to become the most influential man in the Committee of Union and Progress that ruled dictatorially in Constantinople. At the time of his death, Talaat Pasha was already well-known in Germany as the mastermind of the ROLF HOSFELD is persecution of the Ottoman Armenians, which claimed more than a million a journalist in Berlin. lives from 1915 to 1917.

  • Call for Book Chapters: from Multi-Ethnic Societies to Homogeneous States: Collective Memory and Fiction on Emergence of Modern Nations, Armenia and Azerbaijan
    H-Announce EXTENDED DEADLINE to JULY 30: Call for Book Chapters: From Multi-ethnic Societies to Homogeneous States: Collective Memory and Fiction on Emergence of Modern Nations, Armenia and Azerbaijan Announcement published by Victoria Echegaray on Friday, June 4, 2021 Type: Call for Papers Date: July 30, 2021 Subject Fields: Area Studies, Eastern Europe History / Studies, Film and Film History, Literature, Russian or Soviet History / Studies We invite you to contribute papers to the edited volume From Multi-ethnic Societies to Homogeneous States: Collective Memory and Fiction on Emergence of Modern Nations, Armenia and Azerbaijan. The goal of the book is to examine how fiction, film and public memory in Azerbaijan and Armenia reflect the consequences of the disintegration of the USSR in the South Caucasus, when both ethnically diverse former Soviet republics became independent, ethnically homogeneous nation states. The forthcoming book will examine the first and second Karabakh wars together with the mutual ethnic cleansing involved. Traditionally, Western scholars have portrayed the disintegration of the Soviet Union in a positive way, with the leaders of the nationalist’s movements as champions of democracy and defenders of human rights. However, closer analysis of literature, public memory and films in the South Caucasus from the end of 1980s until today reveals a different picture. Harassment, expulsion, and the ethnic cleansing of minorities (Azeris in Armenia and Armenians in Azerbaijan) cast particular doubt on this rosy view. Through fiction, memoirs and contemporary films, we intend to devote attention to anti-Armenian violence in Azerbaijan and anti–Azeri violence in Armenia: i.e.
