The basic historical falsification at the heart o f the<br />

entire Armenian myth o f terror is the constantly repeated<br />

claim that the Ottoman government had one and<br />

a half million Armenians put to death. In Monte-bello,<br />

the authors o f the inscription on the Armenian memorial<br />

go one step further. They claim that the genocide<br />

was perpetrated "by the Turkish government",<br />

although in 1915 there had never been a Turkish government.<br />

The point o f this exercise is clear. Modem<br />

Turkey is supposed to be linked to matters that did not<br />

even apply to the Ottomans. The fact is that after the<br />

uprisings in Mu§ and Van, in March o f 1915, an order<br />

to relocate the Armenians was issued by the Ottoman<br />

government. The uprisings had caused tens o f thousands<br />

o f Moslem casualties and amounted to a declaration<br />

o f civil war. Many Armenians died in the turmoil<br />

o f the war and in the constant revolts. The Islamic losses<br />

were nevertheless many times greater. To this day,<br />

no one has asked about the fate o f the Moslem victims<br />

o f the riots instigated by Armenian terrorists.
