Page 1 of 7 ![]() Sultan Assassination Who Were the HUNCHAKS? [Nalbandian, Louise, Armenian Revolutionary Movement, University of California Press, 1963] Who Were the DASHNAKS? K.S. Papazian wrote as follows of the Dashnak Society: "The purpose of the Armenian Revolutionary Federation (Dashnak) is to achieve political and economic freedom in Turkish Armenia by means of rebellion. Terrorism has, from the beginning, been adopted by the Dashnak Committee of the Caucasus, as a policy or a method for achieving its ends. Under the heading "means" in their program adopted in 1892, Method No. 8 is as follows: "To wage fight and to subject to terrorism the government officials, the traitors…". Method No 11 is: "To subject the government institutions to destruction and pillage". Papazian, K.S., Patriotism Perverted, Boston Baker Press, 1934] Armenian savagery was not confined to Muslim targets. They were not happy with the failure of Greeks and Jews to fully support their revolution. As a result, they massacred thousands of Greeks in the Trabzon area and hundreds of Jews around the Hakkari region. — Professor Mumtaz Soysal, Ankara Univ. One man's "terrorist" is another's "freedom fighter," and, understandably, "General" Khrimian is a hero of the Armenians. Even though he betrayed the nation that had allowed his people to prosper for seven hundred years of primarily Turkish rule. According to the Armenian site, Mr. Khrimian was of Sivas, Sepastia... and lived from 1878 to1918. "Will forever be remembered for his humanitarian deeds by exchanging one gold piece for one Armenian child." He sure looks like a regular Albert Schweitzer to me. I don't understand what he would be a "general" of ; don't the Armenians claim they were helpless, innocent victims... and any fighting that was done was done out of self-defense? Could Boghos Nubar Pasha have been right, and were there actually Armenian armies (aside from Russian-Armenians... from the ranks of those "volunteers") that were formed to fight against their Ottoman nation... while their nation was pitted in a life and death struggle? ADDENDUM, 4-06: There were apparently two Murads from Sivas, the other being Parliamentarian Hamparsum Boyajian, a Hunchak. Still trying to clear this up. I am wondering if Khrimian was the possible second Murad, a Dashnak, featured in Toynbee's Blue Book. Christopher Walker (Armenia — The Survival of a Nation) wrote this Murad was born in 1874, four years earlier than the above claim, and died on August 5, 1918, in Baku. Pg. 221: After a battle with Turks, he escaped in autumn 1915 to Batum (with the help of friendly Greeks form the Black Sea coast). Pg. 403: He was a fedayi leader in the 1904 Sasun rebellion. Also fought in the 1905 Armeno-Tatar conflict in Nakhichevan and Zangegur. After being present at the time of the Erzindjan truce in December 1917, he became a leader when the Russian forces pulled out. |
