Turkish People...Serious Question

That question should be like "Why do all the Armenians hate Turks?". Why I'm saying this? Because Turkey is a lot more open than Armenia and there are very and vastly different opinions about our neighbor. However I can guarantee that the vast majority of Armenians(except the ones live in Turkey and they are a lot) hate anything related with the turks or the Turkey. Because basically, they believe that the turks did a massive genocide against them. They start to learn this info from their childhood in their families and in their schools.

So there is a "genocide issue" between the turks and armenians.

Simply; they believe we(our ancestors) genocided(is it a verb?) them and we believe that we didn't. As much as the conflict is simple as this, the subject is not simple by any means, so if any friend wants to discuss about it I suggest the other platforms for it.

At least I'm not gonna discuss about it, because it's well beyond me by all means.
 
And of course I need no expression to express that I do not hate the Armenians or any other nation.
 
It's going all the way back 1878 Ottoman - Russian war. Ottoman Empire residents Armenians took side of the Russian Empire because of the religious issues, and rebelled against Ottoman Empire. That caused Caucasia to divide, and Armenia was founded. Many migrations took place at that time, many people driven from their homes from Caucasia and come to Anatolia, especially to Black Sea region.

During the first world war, Armenians living in Ottoman soil rebelled again to unite with Armenia and slaughtered many Turkish citizens. Many villages were burned. Even babies were burned alive. Despite of being busy with the war taking place in the west, Ottoman Empire sent a formidable force to East Anatolia to end this slaughter. The army defeated all the Armenian militia, and Ottoman Empire exiled Armenians from their soil to south and grand migration took place.

It's estimated 3 million Turkish people was killed during the Armenian rebellion, and 1,5 million Armenians was dead because of the war, conditions during the migration such as cold, starvation and plague.

To many deaths from both sides, that is the main reason for the hatred. Ottoman Empire never did "genocide", though starvation and plague did.

I wonder what would be the reaction of the USA if 3 million of their own people was slaughtered? Exiling was the most human punishment at the time.

Edit: FYI My Grand grand father's brother was skinned alive at a town near Erzurum.

The war stories are sad, but if you want the truth, just go to Little Armenia or Glendale in the Los Angeles area and you'll find your answer. Spend 10 minutes around Armenians and you'll stop thinking Indians(as in India Indians) are the most annoying body of people in the world.

PKM, you're one of my favorite Turkish posters here. I heard that your kebab and rakı is very delicious but I didn't like your turkish delight, it's too sweet, viscous and hurts my teeth.

Anyway, I want to know the Turkish Culture better, so I have some questions to you PKM, serious of course. Thanks in advance.
