Days of the Young Turkish Revolution – Unique photo – Turkey 1908

This unique photograph was taken in the days of the Young Turkish Revolution of 1908, when the Armenians enthusiastically greeted the Young Turkish Revolution, supported by false slogans of freedom, equality and brotherhood.

Needless to say, they made a terrible mistake.

This is especially for those people who call for immediate negotiations with the Turks.

Especially for those people who have written joint books with the Turks and signed anti-Armenian standards.

Especially for those people who are trying to transform the hostile image of the Turks.

Especially for those people who still hope that a Turk can coexist peacefully with an Armenian.

Especially for those people who don’t know the story or learn from it.
