Once they had eliminated the Armenian peoples leadership. they turned their attention to the Armenians serving in the Ottoman army. These soldiers were disarmed and placed in labor camps. where they were either starved or executed. The Armenian people. lacking political leadership and deprived of young. ablebodied men who could fight against the Ottoman onslaught. were then deported from every region of Turkish Armenia. The images of human suffering from the Armenian genocide are graphic. and are as haunting as the pictures of the Holocaust. Why. then. it must be asked. are so many people unaware of the Armenian genocide?
