- "Since all the Moslems capable of bearing arms were in the Turkish Army,
- it was easy to organize a terrible massacre by the Armenians against
- defenseless people, because the Armenians were not only attacking the
- sides and rear of the Eastern Army paralyzed at the front by the
- Russians, but were attacking the Moslem folk in the region as well."
