The Truth Sari Gelin - Die wahre Geschichte (Armenier Frage) 3-8 On August I, Khan Tekinskii, the Azerbaijani envoy in Erevan, claimed that 300 Muslim villages had been destroyed since the beginning of 1918, that the only nondiscrimination shown by Armenians was in their slaughter of men, women, and children alike, that Muslim suffering was so intense that thousands were trying to move to Azerbaijan, and that those who had taken arms against the Armenian bandits were simply exercising their right to defend lives, property, and homes. In Paris, too, the Azerbaijani delegation launched a propaganda campaign to change the image of the Armenians as a helpless, victimized people and to point out what could be expected in areas placed under their domination. On August 20 Topchibasheer warned the peace conference that the ethnic and territorial character of the Caucasus was being radically altered through a policy of terror and violence. Armenian aggression in the provinces of Yerevan and Kars... was aimed at eliminating the Muslim population and suppressing the principle of self-determination. It had just been learned, for example, that the men of six villages had been massacred and their womenfolk distributed to the `Armenian Warriors`. Azerbaijan could no longer tolerate such atrocities acquiesce in the loss of a pan of its land and people. The United States has given Armenia more than 1.4 billion dollars to help them capture 20 percent of Azerbaijani lands and remove more than a million Muslims. At the same time Americans cut foreign aid to Azerbaijan because they attempted to defend the land and homes of their people. This is nothing more than taking sides with bandit Armenians. "In Constantinople, Admiral Bristol had complained to Haskell that Rhea and other Americans in Tiflis could not distinguish between fact and propaganda, since they had swallowed the Armenian line about a Turkish-Azerbaijani master plan to unite the Karabagh-Zangezur-Nakhichevan land bridge» In June 16, 1880, Lieutenant - Colonel C.W.Wilson, British Consul General for Anatolia, reported to his government his experience with the Armenians. He described them as "being greedy of gain, mostly entirely without education. Immoral, fanatic, bigoted, and completely under the influence of an illiterate, ignorant and sensual priesthood who opposed all education and advancement».Colonel Wilson goes on to add in his experience with Armenians that "truth and honesty are sadly deficient, but one of the most hopeful signs is the effect of the teaching of American missionaries, who impress upon the people, the necessity of these virtues». The colonel concludes his memo by stating: "The tendency of the Armenian movement is towards opposition to the established authority; the Armenians wish to take the place of the Turks; nothing else will satisfy the men who manage the movements at Istanbul». Harold Armstrong described the Armenians as a "most vigorous and pushing people; envied and ill - spoken of». He says they have men of good business ability, who are thrifty and able to negotiate a hard bargain. However, they "are also argumentative, quarrelsome, and great know - it - alls». Armstrong concludes his evaluation of Armenians by saying they are "crafty, grasping, secretive, acquisitive, and dishonest, making a great pretence of religion, but using it as a cloak for treachery and greed». Russia was using the Armenians in its quest to reach the warm waters of the Mediterranean so it could cut off England's route to India. Britain was attempting to use Protestant Armenians to protect its lifeline to India by holding back both Russian and France. The French made use of Catholic Armenians for its own interests in the Near East. Only the Americans didn't have a clear - cut national objective.
