Armenia

who again are Armenian but this is not said explicitly. There will also be scenes showing the deportation of the Armenians from the Caucus region, but not any atrocities. In the final battle the hero will be in a bunker with his friends and a grenade is thrown through the window, wanting to save his friends the hero throws himself on top of the grenade. Exploding beneath him, he is comatose for the rest of the war. Escaping with only the loss of one of his eyes and a body full of shrapnel. He is…

Genocide was not defined as a punishable crime by the United Nations until 1942. Describing the heinous act as an “odious scourge,” the UN cites a dark history of considerable loss of human life in result of hatred, “with intent to destroy” one particular group of people (UN No. 1021). Clear specifications for the punishment of the crime did not yet exist in the era of the Armenian Ottoman genocide in 1915. Once one of the largest empires the world has ever seen, the Ottoman Empire expanded to…

One scene does not symbolize the actions that I believe are to be criticized; rather the continuous action of the group as a whole in multiple scenes. In a survival aspect, it’s hard not to look at the situation in an apocalyptic sense, Walking Dead manner per se. The group’s goal is to get as far away from the turkish controlled area as possible. With adding on wounded and weak refugees on the trek how is the group going to survive? Soon Darwinism will begin to take place and you’ll be left…

Some people hold grudges for something that has happened years ago, even if it is something historical. In 1923, 1.5 million Armenians had been murdered, or taken to a desert where they were not fed and died of starvation. Nobody, not even the international community, did anything to prevent or stop this. This resulted into killing about 3 thousand Armenian lives. It all started on April 24th, 1915. Armenians were rounded up- being arrested, deported, and executed. Hundreds of thousands died,…

The Armenian Genocide was very similar to other cases of human rights violations because factors such as scapegoating were followed by dehumanization. From the beginning during the Ottoman Empire, Christians were discriminated against as they paid higher taxes than Muslims. During World War I, Armenians were scapegoated because of their Christian beliefs, which supposedly influenced their loyalty to their country. Similarly, in the Holocaust, Hitler blamed the Jews for all the economic problems…

What do you think of when you think of genocide? Most of you probably think of the Holocaust where the Jews were the target of the Nazis. Often many people forget about the genocide that happened about 15-20 years before that. The Armenian Genocide was the Ottoman Empire's destruction of the Armenian Christian population. This was at the fall of the Ottoman Empire. The Armenian Genocide is a forgotten genocide because it is not recognized by many nations but it did have its impact on the country…

In There Was and There Was Not, Meline Toumani expresses her cognitive dissonance towards the subject of the Armenian genocide buy using the concept of paradoxes throughout the story. When Toumani first enters Turkey, she has a sense of fear. She is constantly on edge because she believes that everyone can tell she is Armenian and will judge her based on that. Toumani starts to hide her heritage in the hopes that she can still learn more about Turkey without people creating a bias based on…

In today story is about "comparing the Holocaust to Armenia". Today I'll be talking about comparing the holocaust to Armenia. First, I'll be talking about aggressor and target group. Second, I'll be talking about what actually occurred. Final, I'll be talking about what were the outcome of the Holocaust. The aggressors was Hitler and his German soldiers that did the bad things. They did bad things to the Jews and their family's. They were killing them, making them go into the death showers, and…

What happened during the Armenian genocide still today affects those who survived that horrific experience and even the family members of those victims who didn’t make it through and of those who did survive the genocide. The reason for the genocide was that the Ottomans believed that the Armenians were a problem in Turkey ands they needed to get rid of them in order to save Turkey and also because they were non-Muslim and believed them to be second-level and this is what led to the mass murder…
