Serdar Dincer: The Armenian Genocide and Turkish-German Military Cooperation

Serdar Dincer

Serdar Dincer.

Turkish researcher Serdar Dincer’s book titled “German-Turkish Military Cooperation and the Armenians” sheds light on a number of historic realities that have been less known or almost unknown to the public. The author refers to official German documents which indicate how Germany led the Ottoman Empire into World War I and how large a role Germany played in the displacement of Armenians and execution of the Genocide. Serdar Dincer spoke with CivilNet’s Alin Ozinian.

Aline Ozinian: How did you decide to write the book titled “German-Turkish Military Cooperation and the Armenians?”

Serdar Dincer: The theme that I chose is important for Turkey, it is the offspring of Turkey’s eternally threatening militarism and the racism fed by it. In 2006, I published “‘Germany: A Winter’s Tale’ and Heinrich Heine, the Poet of Dialectics.” After publishing this book I started studying World War I, the subsequent years, and the Armenian cause. It is impossible to understand the history of Turkey in the era of World War I without taking into account the issue of the Armenians.

I was in the middle of working on this when Hrant Dink, whose dedicated reader I was, was assassinated,.

His assassination grieved me deeply and I had a feeling of shame, so Armenians took a key place in my studies. In 2007, I met Wolfgang Gust, whose book and Armenocide.net website triggered my interest in starting translating documents related to the Genocide of the Armenians. For that purpose I accessed the political archives of Germany’s Foreign Affairs Ministry, and to my great surprise I found there hundreds of other folders on the same topic.

Then I accessed the military, naval, financial, foreign policy, railway, food supply sections of those archives, where I selected other documents which I placed next to those that I had already found, and here the picture became more holistic. I added existing documentation published in various other books and as a result 2 books emerged: “The German-Turkish Military Cooperation and the Armenians” published in 2011 and in the summer of 2014, “Krupp and the Never-Ending Balkan War, Exile and Genocide.”

AO: Having studied the political archives of Germany’s Foreign Affairs Ministry, you came to the conclusion that the Genocide was committed by a group, where there was no distinction between being a Turk or German, the group had made a step-by-step plan years before 1915. What was the reason for that unity, the joint planning and in general for that coalition?

SD: The German leaders were pursuing an aim of conquering the world, and the Enver-Talaat pair was obsessed with sustaining their empire and with the dream to reach Central Asia. The German authorities were thinking that Turkey can help in achieving their plans and will open the doors leading to India and Egypt.

This was the reason why they demonstrated full support to Abdul Hamid until the very end, and built the railway to Baghdad, whereas hundreds of Turkish military officers were receiving military education in the Prussian army. Krupp, Ehrhardt, Mauser and other arms producers became the only suppliers of weapons to the Ottoman army.

One of the ideologists of this plan, Paul Rohrbach yet in 1902 wrote that every 100 km of the railway is worth one dreadnought (battleship), in this way deliberating of the upcoming World War.

Not being able to prevent the fall of Abdul Hamid, Germany was able to establish an alliance with the Young Turks and to contain the wishes of the politicians and military officers who were advocating for establishing friendly relations with Britain, France and Russia.

A great impact on the choice of the Young Turks played Germany’s ambassador to the Ottoman Empire Marshall von Bieberstein, the Military Attaché Strempel , and later the Navy attaché Hans Humann ve Marshall von Bieberstein is the person who wired to Berlin after the massacres of Adana: “Armenians are one of the most deceitful nations in the world.”

The Germans were encouraging Enver Pasha and Talaat Pasha to organize military coups. Kamil Pasha, who was known by a nickname “Englishman” and who had received his education in France, the military minister Nazim Pasha, who was known with his close ties with the Armenians, they were both toppled as a result of Babi Ali’s military coup of 1913. The Germans were encouraging their actions.

The German archives show us that the military coup was supported by Deutsche Bank (and the administration of Baghdad railway’s construction which was under this bank), whereas military attaché Strempel stationed in Istanbul simply supported their plan.

Six-seven months after this coup, Mahmut Shevket Pasha, who was a bottleneck to Enver-Talaat’s plans, was assassinated. The Enver-Talaat-Cemal trio established a dictatorship in the country.

At the end of 1913, a few weeks after the arrival of the German military mission led by Liman von Sanders in Istanbul, Ahmet İzzet Pasha , who used to oppose the actions of Enver and Talaat, is sacked from his position of the head of the army and Enver Pasha becomes the military minister.

After World War I breaks out, the Germans start making pressure and forcefully silence all those members of the Ittihat government who were opposing the war and did not want to involve Turkey in the war. Germany’s ambassador details the plan made with Enver in a report sent on October 14th of 1914 and at the end writes the following:

“The above-mentioned developments have brought us to a momentum when we can engage Turkey in the war through a military coup. However, I do not think that dislocating Turkish soldiers on the shores of the Black Sea will be sufficient for igniting and kindling rebellions in India, Iran and Egypt. On the other hand, I would hate not to take advantage of the current military mood in Turkey and would not like to take up responsibility for a situation that if Germany has any military failure in the near future, Turkey will never ally with us in the war.”

According to me, if Emperor Wilhelm and his ideological counterparts Talaat and Enver did not shove the Ottoman Empire into war, the policy of exile and extermination of the Armenians would not reach the level it actually reached. After the Balkan wars, a fear was hovering over the Ottoman empire that the state is being disintegrated, therefore the psychology of war and extermination was widespread and this psychology was taken advantage of for exterminating the Armenians. Here, very important were also the German weapons and money.

Large was also the role of the German nationals in the Turkish army and the Turkish officers who had received their military education in Germany. When the war broke out, one of the first pieces of advice given by the German commanders was to remove the Armenians from the war zone. This turned into exterminating the nation with weapons, and in Zeitun and Urfa colonel Wolfskill participated in these actions, of which he was proud. One of the closest friends of Enver, Hans Human and Bronsart von Schellendorf help in the execution of the massacres.

Ambassador Wolff Metternich was opposing the plan of exterminating the Armenians, whose position was only seconded by Liman von Sanders amongst the German commanders in Turkey. He prepares a report and emphasizes that without German money and weapons, the the government of the Young Turks will be unable to do anything and calls for the German authorities to end their policy of neutrality and to actively interfere against the genocidal policy. In response to this report, Kanzler Betman Holweg writes:

“To make claims, as you are suggesting, to an ally engaged in the war in unheard and unprecedented in history. Our only aim is to keep Turkey next to us until the end of the war, and it does not matter whether Armenian will be exterminated during that time or not. The war may last too long and we will need Turkey a lot.” This means that for Germany the victims of the Genocide was merely secondary losses.

At the core of the German-Turkish relations lies the same mentality, this is a militaristic mentality, some sort of hunnic thinking. Emperor Wilhelm, when he sends troops to China, tells them “Behave like the huns!” Who were the huns considered by the Turks as their predecessors? This was a heterogenous nomadic group that stimulated the Great Migration of peoples which created havoc in all European countries. This was a group that would plunder and kill everywhere.

Anybody who earns living by sweat and honor, anyone with self-respect cannot consider the huns as their founding fathers. Emperor Wilhelm who would praise the huns found Enver as his spiritual brother. They were both obsessed with the desire to rule the world.

A significant part of those German officers that would arrive in Turkey had already gained experience in China and Africa. They had fought in their colonies, participated in cracking down the rebellion in China, participated in the massacres of the Herero genocide and were used to impunity.

And these military men who were obsessed with this culture found their fellows amongst the turks who were also obsessed with an imperialist, expansionist culture and were inspiring each other. Part of these German officers later on became the support to Hitler. They had their fascist fellows in Turkey, one of whom was Nuri Pasha, Enver Pasha’s elder brother.

AO: To what extent are these events upon which you have shed light, known in Turkey and Germany? What echoes has your book received in Germany and Turkey?

SD: The documents translated from German to Turkish, I think, helped many people understand the truth. The situation of those who scream that they were “defending their homeland and nation” has become very tight, now it became difficult to hide that they were the persons who made the greatest harm to Turkey.

These are also carefully concealed realities in Germany. Not long ago, Jürgen Gotschlich published a book featuring a small part of the documents that I have compiled in my book. It received a big reaction. More and more difficult becomes the business of those institutions and people in Germany, who have been assisting the German government to act as “unbiased judges and mediators between the Armenians and the Turks”․ The hypocritical position of the German government becomes more and more evident; it basically says “we are neutral, we do not meddle into this and are leaving the matter to the historians.”

AO: Why is Germany that has acknowledged the Holocaust, so passive on the matter of the Armenian Genocide? If Germany acknowledges its own fault and complicity, can this trigger that Turkey also acknowledges?

SD: If Germany acknowledges its complicity, then it will be very difficult for Turkey to deny the Genocide.

AO: Back then when Germany was acknowledging the Holocaust, it was weak and powerless, that was its position after World War II. Today, when Germany has become powerful, it is playing a negative role in disclosing the historic truth. Is it that powerful states have such an advantage - they regard history the way they like, they hide what they want?

SD: The contemporary German army, police, justice system and many other institutions were established by the previous - nazi regime. Thousands of fascist murderers were never punished in Germany, they peacefully died in their beds.

Acknowledgement of the Holocaust was a result of the materialistic financial calculations of the international community and the winning states. That same Germany is today trying to obliterate and shield the crimes it committed in Greece, Yugoslavia, the Soviet Union.

Germany seems to be mocking the fair demands of the Greek people for compensating millions of dollars.

German President Gauck says that the German courts have already made a decision regarding compensation or non-compensation. One cannot be so shameless. Think about it, you have invaded a country, became reason for the death of dozens of thousands of people, years later you are slapping in the face of the generations that demand compensation from you and who have become impoverished because of you and you are saying: “You cannot demand anything from us, because our court has made that decision.” History should not be left to these people, it is our human duty to break their blood-soaked pens.

Tarihsel belgeler üzerinde kapsamlı bir çalışma yaptınız. Böyle bir çalışmaya neden girdiniz?

– Benim Türkiye için önemli bulduğum ve kendime çalışma alanı olarak seçtiğim konu yurdumuzun ezeli belâsı olan militarizm ve bundan kaynaklanan ırkçı-şeriatçı kul kafasıdır. Bunu Alman demokratlarının, emekçilerinin deneyimlerinden yararlanarak Türkiye’ye yönelik çeviriler vb. ile yapmaya çalışıyorum. Bunun için 2006 yılında “Almanya. Bir Kış Masalı ve Diyalektiğin Şairi Heinrich Heine” isimli bir kitap yayımlamıştım. Bundan sonra da yine aynı amaca yönelik bir Tucholsky çalışması için 1. Dünya Savaşı ve sonrasını incelemeye, bu bağlamda Ermeni sorununa yoğunlaşmaya başlamıştım. Çünkü Türkiye’nin 1. Dünya Savaşı tarihini Ermenileri atlayarak anlatamazsınız. Tam bu hazırlıklarım sırasında yazılarını sürekli takip ettiğim Hrant Dink öldürüldü. Bu cinayet beni öylesine üzdü ve utandırdı ki, çalışmamda Ermeniler konusu giderek daha da ağır basmaya başladı. Bu arada 2007 baharında tanıştığım Wolfgang Gust ve onun kitabı ile ‘Armenocide.net’ sitesi tamamen Ermeni soykırımı belgelerinin çevirisine yönelmeme neden oldu. Bu niyetle gittiğim Alman Dışişleri Bakanlığı Politik Arşivi’nde yüzlerce başka dosyayla karşılaşınca çok şaşırdım. Buradaki askeriye, donanma, maliye genel politika, beslenme, demiryolları vb. dosyalarına da girip buradan seçtiğim belgeleri Ermeni dosyalarındakilerle içiçe kronolojik bir sıraya sokunca karşıma devasa bir manzara çıktı. Bunları kitaplardaki bilgilerle de harmanlayınca iki kitap ortaya çıktı. 2011’de yayımlanan “Alman-Türk Silah Arkadaşlığı ve Ermeniler” ile 2014 yazında yayımlanan “Krupp’un Bitmeyen Balkan Savaşı, Sürgün ve Soykırım.”

Ermeni soykırımı konusunda Almanya’nın rolü ve etkisi sizce nedir?

– Bence şayet Osmanlı, Wilhelm ve onun Türkiye’deki kafadarları Enver ve Talât kliğince savaşa sürüklenmeseydi, Ermenilere karşı uygulanan sürgün ve imha politikası asla bu boyutlara varamazdı. Balkan Savaşları’ndan sonra iflas etmiş ve dağılma telaşına düşmüş Osmanlı topraklarında yaratılan savaş ve yokoluş psikolojisi Ermenilerin imhası için kullanılmıştır. Bunda Alman parası ve silahları önemli bir etkendir. Ayrıca Türk ordusunda büyük etkinliği olan Alman subayları ve Almanya eğitimli Türk subaylarının rolü büyüktür. Savaş patlayınca Alman kurmayların ilk tavsiyelerinden biri ‘hinterland’daki ‘düşmanların’, yani Ermenilerin buralardan uzaklaştırılması olmuştur. Bu ‘uzaklaştırmada’ ve doğrudan topla-tüfekle imha hareketinde Zeytun, Urfa civarındaki Yarbay Woilfskeel gibi subaylar görev almış, bununla böbürlenmişlerdir. Enver’in senli benli ahbabı Donanma Ataşesi Hans Humann ve Enver’in kurmayı Bronsart von Schellendorf Paşa katliamları alabildiğine desteklemişlerdir.

Belgeler, Almanya ve Osmanlı arasında sıkı bir ilişki olduğunu ortaya koyuyor; sizce bu ilişkinin temelinde ne yatıyor; gerçekten dostluk ve halkların kardeşliği üzerine mi yoksa çıkar ve hesap üzerine kurulu bir yakınlık mı söz konusuydu iki devlet arasında?

-Bu ilişkinin temelinde yatan ortak yan ‘kafa birliğidir’. Bu kafa maceracı, emek düşmanı, militarist Hunlu kafasıdır. Wilhelm Çin’e katliama yolladığı askerlerine ‘Hunlular gibi olmaları’ öğüdünü vermiştir. Bize ‘atalarımız’ diye anlatılan bu ‘Hunlular’ kimdir? Bütün Avrupa halklarını önüne katıp kovalayan ve tarihe ‘Halklar Göçü’ diye geçen korkunç olayı yaratan talancı, katliamcı bir güruh. Bunları mı kendimize ‘örnek’ alacağız? Alnının teriyle, namusuyla ekmeğini kazanan hiçbir insan böylesi bir asalak sürüsünü ‘ata’ sayamaz. İşte tam bunlara özenen Wilhelm, Enver’de ‘ruh kardeşini’ bulmuştur. İkisi de, göksel güçlerin de kayırmasıyla, dünyaya hükmetme sevdasındaki kumarbazlardı. Wilhelm daha önce de kelleler kopartan ulu hakan Abdülhamid’in dostuydu. Osmanlı ordusunun önde gelen subaylarının önemli bir bölümü Prusya eğitimlidir. Müslümanlara dayatılan kafa bir yanda Hunlulardan, Yavuz Sultan Selim’lerden gelen kul ruhu, diğer yanda Prusya militarizminden kaynaklanan kadavra itaatkârlığıydı.

İki taraf da tencere-kapak misali, birbirlerini buldu ve birbirinden „ilham“ aldı. Bu Alman subaylar daha sonraki Hitler hareketinin de baş dayanakları oldular. Bunların Türkiye’deki Nuri Paşa (Enver’in biraderi) gibi ahbapları da Türk faşizminin.

Bunlara karşı da halkların kardeşliği yer alıyordu, alıyor. Ermeni katliamlarına, soykırımına Reichstag’da ilk karşı çıkanlar, protesto sesini yükseltenler Karl Liebknecht gibi sosyalistlerdi.

Almanya’nın bu soykırımda rolünü açıkça gösteren belge ya da belgeler söz konusu mu?

– Doğrudan resmi dışişleri belgesi olarak Türkiye’deki askeri demiryolu sevkiyatının şefi ve Enver’in yakın adamı Böttrich’in imzalı bir emri var. Bu hatların asıl sahibi (Deutsche Bank’a bağlı) Anadolu-Bağdat Hatları Müdür Vekili Günther, böyle açıkça imzalı belge bırakılmasını eleştiriyor. Bronsart Erzurum Konsolosvekili’nin Ermeni sürgününe karşı yolladığı rapora Ermeniler yerine Türklere yardım edilmesini isteyen elyazısı not düşüyor. Halep Konsolosu Rössler‘in Wolffskeel’in alabildiğine angaje tutumunu eleştiren raporu var. Wolffskeel ayrıca ailesine yazdığı mektuplarda Urfa’daki Ermeni savunmacılarını nasıl topa tuttuğunu ve ev ev nasıl ilerlediğini övünerek anlatıyor.

Ermeni soykırımına karşı çıkan ve Türkiye’deki askerler arasında sadece Liman von Sanders’le anlaşabilen Büyükelçi Wolff-Metternich’in, Alman para ve silahları olmadan yönetici kliğin hiçbir şey yapamayacağını vurgulayan, bunun için Alman yönetiminin çekingenliği bırakıp soykırım hareketine karşı aktif müdahale etmesini isteyen raporuna, Şansölye Bethmann Hollweg, “Bir müttefikten, süren savaş sırasında, önerildiği gibi kamu önünde hesap sorulması, şimdiye dek tarihte hiç rastlanmamış bir önlemdir. Bizim tek hedefimiz, Türkiye’yi savaşın sonuna dek kendi tarafımızda tutmaktır, bu arada Ermeniler mahvolur veya olmaz, fark etmez. Daha uzun sürecek savaşta bizim Türklere daha, çok ihtiyacımız olacak“ yanıtını veriyor. Yani soykırım kurbanları „tali zayiattır“.

Ermeni soykırımında Almanya’nın rolünü daha net görebilmek için hala gün yüzüne çıkarılması gereken bilgi ve belgeler olduğunu düşünüyor musunuz?

– Askeri arşiv belgelerinin 2. Dünya Savaşı’nda „yandığı“ iddia ediliyor. Ben buna inanmıyorum. Ayrıca Enver’e sürekli eşlik eden General Lossow gibilerinin geride bıraktığı özel arşivler varmış. Bunlara Krupp, Deutsche Bank gibi şirket arşivleri de eklenebilir. Ben oraya buraya seyahat edip böylesi arşivlere girecek maddi olanaklara sahip değildim. Bir amatör olarak bu kadarını yapabildim, ancak sanırım bu bile epey bir netlik getirdi.

Türk ve Alman politikacıların sık sık, “bu politikanın değil, tarihçilerin işidir; arşivleri açalım bakalım ne olmuş” dediğine tanık oluyoruz. Siz bir araştırmacı olarak tarihsel belgelerin bir bölümünü tardınız; ne gördünüz, vardığınız sonuç ne oldu?

– O zırvayı ciddiye alanların sayısı giderek azalıyor. Tarihimiz, kimliğimizi ve geleceğimizi belirliyor. Tarih bence, kendini tanımak, bilmek ve geleceğini aktif şekillendirmek isteyen, kulluktan kendini azad’etmeye çalışan herkesin, her dürüst emekçinin ilgi alanında olmalıdır. Üç-beş uyanığa bırakılamaz.

Serdar Dinçer

1953’de Alaşehir’de doğmuşum. İzmir Atatürk Lisesi’ni bitirdikten sonra 1970 sonunda Etibank burslusu olarak Almanya’ya geldim ve Berlin Teknik Üniversitesi Maden Fak��ltesi’nden 1978’de mezun oldum. Bundan sonra başladığım doktora çalışmam sırasında zamanın Çalışma Bakanı Hilmi İşgüzar tarafından vatandaşlıktan atılmam istendiği için Türkiye‘ye dönemedik. Dönme yeniden mümkün olduğunda Berlin’de kök salmıştık, ikinci bir göçe gücümüz yetmedi.

Berlin’de çocuk yuvalarında eğitmen olarak çalıştım. İşin yanısıra eğitmenlik meslek eğitimi ve sosyal pedagoji öğrenimimi tamamladım. Bunlara ek olarak taksi şoförlüğü de yaptım. Son 25 yıl sosyal pedagog olarak çalıştım.

1971’den beri çeşitli dernek, dergi ve partilerde çalıştım. Berlin’de yayınladığımız Kurtuluş gazetesinde yazılar da yazdım.

Evli ve iki çocuk babasıyım.

2006 yılında „Almanya. Bir Kış Masalı ve Diyalektiğin Şairi Heinrich Heine‟ isimli kitabımı yayımladım. 2011 yılında da İletişim Yayınları arasında „Alman Belgelerinde Alman-Türk Silah Arkadaşlığı ve Ermeniler‟, 2014 yılında Favori Yayınları’nda „‘Krupp’un Bitmeyen ‚Balkan Savaşı‘, Sürgün ve Soykırım“ isimli kitaplarım çıktı.

İmparatorluk Şansölyesi Bethmann Hollweg’in ‘Bizim tek hedefimiz, Türkiye’yi savaşın sonuna dek kendi tarafımızda tutmaktır, bu arada Ermeniler mahvolur veya olmaz, fark etmez’ içerikli notu aslında pek çok şeyi anlatıyor. Almanya dünya egemenliğini ele geçirecekti! Bu rüyayla dünyayı iki kez yakan Almanlar için ilk yangında yanan Ermeniler, bunların gözünde tali bir zayiattan fazlası değildiler. Kimi Alman subayları katliamlara doğrudan katıldı. Kimileri de yüz binlerce Ermeni, sürgün yollarında yok edilirken Enver Paşa ile propaganda gezilerine çıkıyor ve Almanya’da çıkan kitaplarında ‘Türkiye Türk oluyor’ diye sevinç çığlıkları atıyordu.

Kaiser Wilhelm Enver Paşa'yla

Kaiser Wilhem’in amacı Almanya güdümünde bir Orta Avrupa konseptini hayata geçirmekti. “Müslüman dostu” Almanya’nın 1. Dünya Savaşı’ndaki Ortadoğu suçları, sonradan Hitler faşizminin ele başlarından oluşan nice haydutun staj alanı olmuştur.

Belgelerden Türkiye’nin aslında Balkan Savaşı ile işinin bittiğini ve ‘savaşamaz, onun için müttefik de olamaz’ yönünde raporların Berlin’e geldiğini, Osmanlı’nın paylaşım planlarının yapıldığını, haritaların bile hazır olduğunu görüyoruz. Ancak Almanya’nın Marne’de savaşı yitirdiği anlaşılınca Türkiye’nin ‘savaşabilirliği’ raporlarla aniden gündeme geliyor ve Türkiye birkaç ay içinde savaşa sokuluyor. Hükümette başta Cavid Bey olmak üzere önemli bir bölümün bu savaşa girmek istemediğini, ancak Enver Paşa’nın ‘Almanya’dan yana bir set gibi dimdik durduğunu’, ‘Enver ve Talat Paşa’ların mutlaka para ile desteklenmesi gerektiğini’, ‘Türkiye’nin bir diktatöre ihtiyacının olduğunu’ okuyoruz. Yine belgelerde bu diktatörün nasıl yıllar öncesinden bu konum için hazırlandığını, Berlin’de, daha önceden de sayısız Osmanlı subayı (Mahmut Şevket Paşa, Ahmet İzzet Paşa, Mahmut Muhtar Paşa ve daha niceleri) gibi ‘muameleden geçirildiğini’, erkek kardeşine nasıl burs ayarlandığını, nasıl apandisiti için özel doktorlar, tedaviler uygulandığını, Enver’in sağ kolu Ordu İaşe Şefi İsmail Hakkı Paşa’nın nasıl kendine Alman doktorlarınca özel ihtimamla takılan bir takma bacakla Alman dostu yapıldığını okuyoruz. Babıali baskınının yolunun nasıl bir metro kredisi vaadi ile açıldığını, anti-İttihatçı Kamil Paşa Hükümeti’nde Alman karşıtı olarak bellenen Harp Nazırı Nazım Paşa’nın bu baskında nasıl olup da Anadolu Hattı Genel Müdürü Hugünin’in ayaklarının dibinde öldürüldüğünü okuyoruz.

Singende Sirenen und Dosenbier

Halver, 11.06.2022

Liebes Logbuch,

es geht wieder auf große Fahrt! Wir steuern geballte 4,6 Tonnen Wohnmobil in nördliche Gefilde. Dieses Wunderwerk aus Alu und Plastik, Traum der Bausparer und Heckentrimmer. Nachdem wir uns monatelang nicht ein bisschen mit der Urlaubsplanung beschäftigt hatten, verbrachten wir sieben Tage vor der Abreise einen recht uninspirierten Nachmittag mit Internetrecherche über die Bretagne. Minütlich sank die Stimmung. Ohne Lust auf Urlaub in den Urlaub zu fahren ist widersinnig, befand Annika, und so planen wir (Stand heute) einen Kurzurlaub in Südfinnland.

Die mangelhafte Urlaubsvorbereitung hatte leider einen anstrengenden Abreisetag zur Folge: Waschen, aufräumen, spülen, packen. Was wir nicht wussten: Zur selben Zeit wusch, ölte, inspizierte Schwiegerwolfgang das Wohnmobil - inklusive einer Toilettenreparatur, ohne die der Urlaub wohl wirklich beschissen geworden wäre 💩. Den fantastischen Mittagstisch bereitete Schwiegerbirgit und einmal mehr überfraß ich mich daran. Das sollte ich mir besser abgewöhnen, denn der Sicherheitsgurt im Auto wirft neuerdings eine Speckfalte auf (und ich esse ja erst seit März regelmäßig beim Mittagstisch mit!).

Beim Wohnungsputz geriet ich bei Gedanken an den anstehenden Urlaub in Hochstimmung. Letztere bahnte sich per Sprachorgan ans Licht der Welt und zu Annikas Leidwesen gab ich meine von der Musikanlage begleitete Version von „Neonschwarz - on a journey“ zum Besten. Mein Bestes ist leider das Schlechteste der meisten anderen Menschen. Und eigentlich muss ich es gar nicht extra dazu sagen, aber die Mischung aus Rap, Sprechgesang und Gesang sollte grundsätzlich von niemandem gehört, geschweige denn in emotional labilem Zustand mit“gesungen“ werden. Denn was Marie Curry, Johnny Mauser, Captain Gips und Spion Y mit Mühe und Not als Musik oder wenigstens Kunst erscheinen lassen, ist eigentlich ein Angriff auf innere Ausgeglichenheit und gutbürgerliche Pauschalurlaube. Beim dritten Refrain klappten sich Annikas Fußnägel hoch und mit einem strengen Blick gab sie mir zu verstehen: Das ist schlimmer als damals, als Odysseus durch das Geschrei der Sirenen den Verstand verloren hat. Und wenn ich meinen Verstand nicht gebrauchen kann, wer denkt dann daran die Bettwäsche einzupacken? Ich jedenfalls nicht, und so spülte ich das restliche Geschirr tanzend statt singrappend.

Es folgte der Großeinkauf, dessen Ergebnis Wolfgang etwas kritisch beäugte. Vermutlich war er sich nicht sicher ob die zwei Paletten Dosenbier reichen. Er ist einfach sehr fürsorglich.

Um 21 Uhr starteten wir endlich Richtung Norden und die A1 meinte es gut mit uns. Ein paar Mittelspurbummler nervten, trotzdem erreichten wir Travemünde um 02:15. Leider mussten wir auf das von Schwiegerwolfgang proklamierte Landebier verzichten, weil der Wecker bereits auf 05:50 Uhr programmiert war: Die Fähre nach Trelleborg stand quasi schon bereit.

Morgen erzähle ich weshalb Stonehenge sich totgelaufen hat, man für perfekte Sandstrände gar nicht in die Südsee muss und wie das WoMo um 1,23 Meter schrumpfte.

Wie erwartet, kann Mückstein dem VfGH keine lückenlosen Daten liefern

Unzensuriert:»Der Mathematiker Norbert Mauser hat mit seiner Äußerung auf "Servus TV", der grüne Gesundheitsminister Wolfgang Mückstein könne die Frageliste des Verfassungsgerichtshofes (VfGH) gar nicht beantworten, weil es entsprechende Daten überhaupt nicht gebe, wohl recht behalten. Aus diesem Grund müssten, so Mauser, die Corona-Maßnahmen von den Höchstrichtern aufgehoben werden. http://dlvr.it/SKfB1V «

Les forces turques ont principalement utilisé des fusils allemands et d’autres armes pour perpétrer le génocide du peuple arménien en 1915-1916 , a révélé un nouveau rapport.

Mauser, le principal fabricant allemand d’armes légères dans les deux guerres mondiales, a fourni à l’Empire ottoman des millions de fusils et d’armes de poing, qui ont été utilisés dans le génocide avec le soutien actif d’officiers allemands. Les historiens ont estimé qu’entre 1 million et 1,5 million d’Arméniens ont été tués dans le génocide de deux ans.

“Les officiers allemands qui ont servi dans l’armée turco-ottomane ont activement aidé à commettre des meurtres individuels“, selon le rapport de Global Net - Stop the Arms Trade (GN-STAT). “La majorité des agresseurs étaient armés de fusils Mauser ou de carabines, les officiers avec des pistolets Mauser.“ De nombreux officiers allemands ont témoigné et écrit sur les massacres dans des lettres à leurs familles.

Le rapport représente le premier « cas » étudié et développé par GN-STAT, un nouveau réseau mondial multilingue de plus de 100 organisations, et une base de données pour les activistes, lanceurs d’alerte, journalistes, artistes et autres intéressés par les exportations d’armes. Il prépare déjà de nouvelles études de cas sur l’affaire G36 illégale que Heckler & Koch a conclu au Mexique et qui est sur le point d’être jugée à Stuttgart, ainsi que l’accord sur les armements de 110 milliards de dollars conclu par les Etats-Unis avec l’Arabie Saoudite l’année dernière.

Accessoire pour assassiner

L’armée turque a également été équipée de centaines de canons produits par la compagnie Krupp, basée à Essen, qui ont été utilisés dans l’assaut de la Turquie contre les combattants de la résistance arménienne qui se tenaient sur la montagne du Musa Dagh en 1915.

En 2015, le président allemand Joachim Gauck a reconnu la « coresponsabilité » de l’Allemagne pour le génocide arménien, tandis qu’un livre publié la même année par le journaliste Jürgen Gottschlich détaille la collusion politique de l’allié européen le plus important de la Turquie durant la Première Guerre mondiale avec des conseils militaires et des formations pour l’Empire ottoman pendant la période Wilhelmine. Mais le nouveau rapport GN-STAT est le premier à détailler l’étendue du support matériel fourni par Mauser et Krupp.

“Mauser avait vraiment un monopole de fusil pour l’Empire ottoman“, a déclaré l’auteur du rapport, Wolfgang Landgraeber, un cinéaste qui a réalisé plusieurs films sur les exportations d’armes allemandes. Mauser a maintenant disparu en tant qu’entreprise, mais le successeur de Krupp, le géant de l’acier allemand ThyssenKrupp, n’a jamais reconnu publiquement le rôle qu’il a joué dans le génocide.

“La question de savoir qui a réellement fourni les armes, non seulement pour le génocide, mais aussi pour la Première Guerre mondiale en Turquie, personne n’a vraiment abordé cette question avant“, a déclaré Landgraeber. “Et dans quelle mesure les officiers allemands ont pris part aux meurtres en ramassant les fusils et en tirant eux-mêmes - cela n’était pas connu auparavant.“

La plupart des récits allemands de première main proviennent de lettres du major Graf Eberhard Wolffskehl, stationné dans la ville d’Urfa, au sud-est de la Turquie, en octobre 1915. Urfa abritait une importante population d’Arméniens qui se barricadaient dans des maisons contre l’infanterie turque. Wolffskehl servait comme chef d’état-major à Fahri Pacha, commandant adjoint de la 4ème armée ottomane, qui avait été appelé en renfort.

“Ils (les Arméniens) avaient occupé en nombre les maisons au sud de l’église“, écrivait l’officier allemand à sa femme. “Lorsque notre tir d’artillerie a frappé les maisons et a tué beaucoup de gens à l’intérieur, les autres ont essayé de se retirer dans l’église, mais ... ils ont dû faire le tour de l’église de l’autre côté de la cour de l’église. Notre infanterie avait déjà atteint les maisons à gauche de la cour et abattu les gens qui fuyaient en travers de la cour de l’église. Dans l’ensemble, l’infanterie, que j’ai utilisée dans l’attaque principale ... s’est très bien acquittée et a avancé très rapidement. “

Support idéologique

Tandis que les compagnies allemandes fournissaient les armes, et les soldats allemands les conseils d’experts sur la façon de les utiliser, les officiers allemands ont également posé ce que Landgraeber appelle les « fondements idéologiques » du génocide.

Que le Reich allemand partageait la méfiance des Ottomans envers les Arméniens n’était pas un secret - ils craignaient tous deux une complicité avec la Russie ennemie, alors que le livre de Gottschlich cite Hans Humann, membre du corps des officiers germano-turcs et ami proche des Ottomans. Le ministre de la guerre de l’Empire, Enver Pacha, a déclaré : “Les Arméniens - à cause de leur conspiration avec les Russes - seront plus ou moins exterminés, ce qui est difficile, mais utile.“

Le grand général prussien Colmar Freiherr von der Goltz, un personnage clé qui devint un conseiller militaire essentiel de la cour ottomane en 1883, se considérait lui-même comme un lobbyiste de l’industrie de l’armement allemande et soutenait à la fois Mauser et Krupp et leurs efforts pour sécuriser les commissions turques. (Il s’est un jour vanté dans son journal, “je peux prétendre que sans moi le réarmement de l’armée avec des modèles allemands ne se serait pas produit.“)

“Pas publiquement, mais parmi ses amis et parents, von der Goltz se montrerait un arménophobe“, a déclaré Landgraeber. “Plusieurs témoins l’ont entendu les décrire comme“ un peuple de commerçants graisseux “. Il a aidé à persuader le Sultan d’essayer de mettre fin à la question arménienne une fois pour toutes. “

Landgraeber considère également von der Goltz comme une source pour l’idéologie nazie ultérieure. L’officier prussien a publié un livre militaire en 1883 intitulé “Das Volk in Waffen“ (“Le peuple armé“), dans lequel, comme le dit Landgraeber : “Il adopte des positions que Hitler prendrait plus tard - par exemple, le but d’une campagne militaire devrait être de détruire totalement l’ennemi, pas seulement de le battre et de le forcer à une capitulation, il croyait à la guerre totale, c’était aussi la base idéologique qu’il donnait aux Ottomans et qu’ils utilisaient dans la question arménienne.

Landgraeber tient à souligner que la nouvelle recherche ne dispense pas l’Empire ottoman de sa culpabilité - mais comble simplement les lacunes dans les archives historiques. “C’est arrivé comme nous l’avons étudié, et rien ne devrait être enduit de sucre - mais l’image entière devrait être plus complète.“
