I wish people who use the word “decimated” would bother to learn the TRUE meaning of the word.

True. My math tells me the Turk Pig Butchers killed 3/4 of the Armenian population in the Ottoman Empire.

Muslims are swine - all of them. I wish they all had only one neck.

You’re right. It was a quote, and I suspect most people understand it as a serious act of killing. But genocide would be the appropriate term, also misunderstood. Beyond the dead, Christian culture no longer exists in the region as it did for millenia. A grave loss. IMO the most successful genocide, Muslim ejection of Jews from North Africa to Iran. Millenia old communities, engaged in the secular life of their nations. Gone, without a peep from the post Hitler world. How would the world look if the Islamic nations from Morroco to Iran still had politically and economically significant Jewish and Christian populations. Minority populations, but by their existance significant.
