I am told that hundreds if not thousands of these (Armenians) were sent at once to the front ranks at the Dardanelles, where death in a very short space of time is almost a certainty. The older men were then deported into the interior, while the women and children, when not carried off in an opposite direction, were left to shift for themselves as best they could. The terrible feature of this deportation up to date is that it has been carried out on such a basis as to render it practically impossible in thousands of cases that these families can ever again be reunited. Not only wives and husbands, brothers and sisters, but even mothers and their little children have been dispersed in such a manner as to preclude practically all hope that they will ever see each other again.

According to this excerpt, what does the author consider to be the worst part of the deportation during the Armenian genocide?

Respuesta :

According to the author, the worst part of the Armenian genocide is that the members of the closest family have been separated in a manner that they will not be able to see each other ever again, that especially being the most tragic about the mothers and their children.

The genocide that the Turkish performed over the Armenians was one of the multiple genocides around the world, showing the dark side of the humans, without having any mercy for the other people of other background. The genocide was performed in multiple different ways, killing, separation, relocation, putting the people in terrible conditions where it was almost impossible to survive. The end result was a decimated and totally destroyed Armenian community in Turkey, with around 1.5 million people dying in the process. The reasons for such an action by the Turkish were nationalism and religion.
