HERE IS DOCUMENT OF ARMENIAN CONFESSION

TURKIYE- Armenian Dashnak Party said, ”we formed gangs after the
Russians came, and we massacred 30,000 Turks in (eastern city of)
Van.” Here are some highlights of the report submitted by this party
to the Socialist International: ”We tried to kill Sultan Abdulhamid
II on June 8th, 1905. 40 people died but we could not reach him. We
killed Van Governor as a retaliation. We achieved to gather the
Armenians in all villages under a single flag. We formed gangs in
villages of Bitlis and Van. The Armenians rebelled after the Russians
attacked on Van in 1915. Our rebellion reached its peak in April. We
killed 30,000 Muslims in Van in a few days. Russian Czar Nikolai II
sent us a ‘thank you’ message.”
