That's because it's the same topic over and over again.

There is a difference... It was the tragic consenquence of a war between two countries, United States and Japan.

In the Ottoman Empire, Ottoman Armenian citizens were killed by their own government which was supposed to protect them during the War...

The Resurrection of Armenia

The Defence of Transcaucasia (1917-1918)

There were various reasons for the revolution which took place in February 1917 and resulted in the fall of the tsar; foremost amongst these, however, was the Russian inability to create a unanimous and living organism of the union of its different peoples. Unlike the leaders of the British Empire, Russia had not been able to understand how it could facilitate the specific characteristics and features of the respective ethnic populations, and adapt itself to their demographic, rather than insisting that they conform to the Russian ideal.

The February Revolution in Russia brought liberal and socialist forces to power. A temporary government, under the leadership of men such as Lvov, Milionkof and later Kerensky, was established in St Petersburg, men who had always shown interest in the Armenian Question.

During the war, these leaders kept Russia on the side of the allied forces, and tried to create a democratic rule in Russia. Towards the non-Russian peoples they pursued a liberal policy and promised them self-governance, but only recognised the independence and establishment of separate governments of three nations, namely Finland, Poland and Armenia.

The February Revolution brought a period of freedom to some parts of the empire, and officially conferred rule of the liberated parts of Western Armenia to the Armenians.

The October Revolution brought to an end the short-lived government, with the communists taking power. The defeat of Russian democracy, as in 1907, was inevitable as the Russians, unlike the Armenians, were not prepared to fight to preserve democracy. ⁴

In Transcaucasia, and other border regions of the empire, the communists failed to gain power. The election for the Russian Duma showed a clear preference for the Dashnak party in the Armenian provinces, for the Mensheviks (Georgian social democrats) in Georgia, and for the Mussavat Party in the Tatar populated provinces.

After the fall of the temporary government in St Petersburg, the above three parties refused to join the new communist rule, instead building a temporary government in Transcaucasia, the �Caucasian Commissioner�. They also created a Caucasian parliament (Seim), wherein the different parties received mandates in relation to the number of votes they received. The arrangement, however, was merely transitory in the eyes of the powerful in the Caucasus, for the Armenians and the Georgians did not want independence for Transcaucasia, but rather self-governing provinces, integrated into a federal Russia.
The Russian Caucasian army, which occupied the liberated Western Armenian provinces, was in disorder and rapidly disintegrating, and the Russian soldiers deserted to return to their homes. The first task of the new Caucasian government, limited though its means were, was to gather an army which could maintain the Turkish front. Since the Tatars refused to fight their Turkish cousins and the Georgian Mensheviks were under the sway of an inconvenient and illogical pacifism, the entire burden of the war fell upon the shoulders of the Armenians. Winston Churchill writes: �At the beginning of 1918 the Russian army abandoned the front in Asia Minor and became a scattered flock whose only desire was to return home. Russians left the front very quickly and the Turks had not yet advanced. The Armenians who stayed behind made a desperate attempt to defend their country, Armenia, and the Armenians in the Russian army gathered and, with the volunteer units, for a time, were able to stop the Turkish advance. Of the 150 000 soldiers that the Armenians had supplied to the Russian army, all had fallen in battle or were scattered over the empire, so that the Armenians were not able to gather more than 35 000 men.� ⁵

At the start of 1918, the Armenian army, continuing in Armenian military traditions, the hope and the condition for an independent Armenian government, took up position at the Western Armenian front. The Armenian army was led by commanders such as General Nazarbekian, General Andranik (known as the Armenian Garibaldi) and Colonel Morel, the Russian officer who was its founder and protector. The army fought without respite to defend Western Armenia and Transcaucasia, a 400 km front, against the Turkish army. General Brehman subsequently recorded: �The efforts of the Armenians at this remote front has been concealed from the European general public, but their place in history should be assured with the heroic deeds carried out during these battles, and the difficulties of providing food and provision, and communication in a landscape with high mountains and a merciless enemy, which in number of soldiers had a crushing advantage, and this in a region that had been closed off from the rest of the world and in which the people fought despite the fact that their doom had been long coming, and were subject to massacres and genocide.� ⁶

H. Barby, military correspondent for a newspaper in Paris, who was an eyewitness to the battles, describes them thus: �The uneven battle between the Turkish army, with its huge advantage in number of soldiers and modern equipment, and the Armenian army had started and would continue for seven or nine months, as the heroic defence of Baku held until the middle of September 1918. During this time, the Armenians were far away from their allies, and the provisions which they promised to send to them never arrived, and in this difficult and sad moment the Georgians abandoned them, while their other neighbours, the Kurds and the Tatars, constantly sabotaged their work. Despite all this, this martyr nation of Christianity heroically resisted, of course not in the hope of an outright victory over the Turks, but in the hope that they would delay their advance towards the territory of Transcaucasia until the sounding of the bell for the allied victory.� ⁷

The Armenian army first defended Erzinjan (February 1918), then Erzurum (March 1918) against the Turkish army. The leaders of the Young Turks concentrated their elite units at this front, hoping to be able to achieve their dream of Pan Turanism. ⁸ With the lack of movement of the British forces in Mesopotamia, around 400 000 soldiers, who after the conquest of Baghdad in 1917 did not advance towards Mosul in order to join the Armenian army at Lake Van, the entire weight of this front fell to the Armenians.
Having done all it could against the Turkish reserve forces, which were constantly replaced, the Armenian army was forced to retreat to the old Russian-Ottoman border of 1914. ⁹

Meanwhile, on January 13, 1918, Lenin, in the name of the Soviet government, declared Western Armenia independent. The communist government had inherited the Armenian Question from the tsarist regime, and as all Russian revolutionary parties were in support, on January 27, 1918, the Pan Russian Soviet recognised the independence of Armenia and Finland.

However, at the negotiations at Brest-Litovsk, in March 1918, when Russia withdrew from the First Word War, Russia was forced to accept the terms dictated by Germany for Armenia. The terms guaranteed the rule of Turks, ally of Germany, over Western Armenia, and also over a part of Eastern Armenia, namely Kars and Ardahan.

Turkish forces continued their advance towards Transcaucasia and, following bloody battles in Sarighamish and Voroshan, entered Kars on April 25.

The independent government of Transcaucasia, on advice from the allies whose forces were too distant to offer assistance, was forced to hand over Kars, Ardahan and Batum to Turkey. When the peace negotiations in Batum started in May 1918, between Turkey, its allies, and the government of Transcaucasia, the Turks presented terms which were considerably tougher than the terms agreed to in the Brest-Litovsk Treaty. The terms included the disintegration of what remained of Eastern Armenia, and the Turkish advance to Baku.

What kind of job have you? Are you a cop? Directing someone with "force" to accept something without listening to the other side of the story? Sorry youre a bad cop.

And also what i didnt get of you is "Palestines trowing with stones while the Israelites shot with guns, waaaaa waaa waaaa" Ok the situation is maybe wrong but what did youre ancestors with native americans? Didnt they used guns against bows? Hadnt they occupied their lands illegaly? Cant we speak of a "genocide" today about what did happin there? Does spain speaks of a "native american genocide" today?

Before speaking a word about someone else look into a mirror, if you havent a one pm me ill send you one for free.
